Protect lives with safer chimneys, fireplaces, and vents.

Avoid dangerous errors and maximize safety in residential and nonresidential properties. Consult the new guidelines in NFPA 211 for construction projects involving chimneys, fireplaces, vents, and solid fuel-burning appliances.

Significant changes in the 2006 NFPA 211 include:

* Revised structural and foundation requirements for chimneys and fireplaces

* Changes in the effective area of chimney connectors

* Revised provisions for firebox/fireplace construction and sizing

Apply the accepted rules for everything from selection of equipment to installation to inspection. A chapter on maintenance provides facts about inspection of existing chimneys and cleaning methods. NFPA 211 is essential for architects, installers, equipment manufacturers, AHJ's, and building owners.
