(back) Subject: Kozy Heat correction From: "Roger Sanders" <[email protected]> Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2000 17:39:11 -0400 In my previous posting (Hearth Digest 494 I believe) I mispelled Kozy Heat as Kozi Heat. I was refering to Kozy Heat, the Minnesota built fireplace line that sells into specialty hearth distribution. I don't know much about Kozi Heat, the Canadian manufacturer. Thank you Jay Hanson (the Northern California rep for Kozy Heat) for correcting me. Roger Sanders

An 18" chimney is overkill for practically any residential application. Although you can purchase it = from the industrial division of various manufacturers, you would do better to establish the correct diameter for the usage, rather than an architect picking the largest size out of his Sweet's catalogue.

All SS is recommended for coastal conditions. If you need help confirming the flue size, give us the fireplace dimensions, including height and width of the opening and the height from lintel bar to the flue top, as well as offsets if any. We normally stock ICC 6" - 20" and have sold even larger diameters. Karen Fenton Energy Works Wholesale 210 S. Garrard Blvd. Richmond, CA 94801 (510)233-2166 (510)233-5196 fax

Whatever we do, surely the cost will be covered by the amount of the original bid with 18"! Thanks, all, for leads. Noel Gilmore Autumn Moon Fireplaces
(back) Subject: still more 18" chimney From: "Noel Gilmore" <[email protected]> Date: Wed, 20 Sep 2000 11:04:45 -0400 >(webmasters note - doesn't metalbestos offer these sizes as a special = order?) Our Metalbestos distributor says that Metalbestos divides its products = into commercial and residential, and our distributor is not permitted to distribute the commercial, which is what 18" is considered to be. Metalbestos gave us leads on distributors we could call for the commercial product, but all those leads were dead ends. We have been in touch with ICC and I think we'll be able to work something out with their product. Thanks, again. Noel
