Taiga BBQ Grill DIY Chimney Fitting Instructions

Install safely

When installing Taiga BBQ Grill into buildings, following fire safety instructions is essential. Here are some important aspects, which should be taken in consideration:

Fitted CHimney

  • The lower end of outer flue should extend to 30 cm downwards and at least 10 cm horizontally from the nearest flammable roof material. (See picture: chimney installation drawing)
  • The length of the chimney depends on the slope and the height of the roof, but the distance between the top of the chimney and the nearest flammable roof material must be at least 80 cm.
  • The outer flue included in the chimney set can only be used in buildings with no heat insulation or suspended ceilings. If Taiga BBQ Grill is installed in buildings with heat insulation or suspended ceilings, a fire protected, made-to-measure bushing is needed.
  • According to the fire protection instructions, non-inflammable material, such as concrete or protective metal sheet, should be placed under and around (50 cm) the fireplace.
  • Take special care with open fire in indoor areas.

Chimney assembly instructions

  1. Lift and place the assembled Taiga BBQ Grill below the chimney hole of the roof (Ø 37 cm).
  2. Tighten the bigger collar - the support collar - into the groove in the upper part of the outer flue.
  3. Thread the tab through the slot and lock it by turning it back tightly on top of it to prevent the collar from loosening.
  4. Thread the outer flue through the chimney hole from the top so that it hangs down from the support collar.
  5. Lower the inner flue pipes from the roof and connect them to each other and to the hood so that the straight end of the flue pipe is placed on the flange on top of the hood. The chimney's own weight guarantees sufficient fastening. The four holes in upper part of the lower flue remain hidden inside the upper flue. The four holes in the upper flue will be used for fastening the rain cap.
  6. Fasten the rain cap to the inner flue with four screws.
  7. Place the smaller collar - rain collar - on top of the sheet iron strips in the upper end of the outer flue.
  8. The rain cap prevents the rain from falling between the chimney and the outer flue.
  9. Seal the joint between the rain cap and the chimney with heat-resistant silicone.
