Tee instructions

How do I install the bottom tee?

Following are tee instructions to install the bottom tee in a chimney reline.

If a tee is required and the masonry chimney has no offsets, remove the tee snout and attach the body of the tee to the flex liner prior to inserting the liner into the chimney. Locate the point where the connector pipe will pass through the chimney to the tee body. There must be an opening large enough for the diameter of the connector pipe.

If your pipe has been insulated, cut away the wire mesh and insulating wrap where the removable snout will attach to the body of the tee. Remove only enough insulation to connect the snout. Secure the snout to the body of the tee using the attached metal band which wraps around the backside of the tee body. Ensure that the snout is fitting properly to the tee body while securing the metal strap.

Fill the hole around the snout with brick or mortar. Complete your connection to the heating appliance following applicable codes.
