Well to install a chimney pipe, you have to make sure that you get the necessary parts that are required for construction. Then you must make sure that the chimney pipe does not obstruct the water pipes in your house. You have to make sure they are carefully aligned. Better to hire a professional for this task.

There must be a hole constructed to link the outside chimney pipe to the stove or furnace which it will exhaust. Then when installing the pipe it must be connected to the appliance it is exhausting and insulated to ensure that is does not cause a fire. Be sure to consult a professional before doing it yourself.

Use at least double wall pipe, make sure your pipe is taller than any part of the house so it will draw the air out. Chimney can be bought as a kit, make sure to use plenty of support braces so the wind does not move it. Add extra support brackets and a clean out.
