I was reading one of Woodstock's Prefabricated Chimney articles on their website (and my stove manual) and they say to use "UL Class A - All Fuel Approved to 2100 deg F" chimneys if you are going the prefabricated route.
My question is - when I look at some of the various pre-fab chimney - like Duravent or Selkirk, they don't state "Class A" but show their chimney pipe to be rated for 2100 deg F and UL-103 HT approved.
I am sure the Class A and UL-103 HT chimney pipe are the same - but if my building inspector says, show me it is a Class A chimney pipe but the markings are 2100 deg F and UL-103, how do I explain?
Or - is there a difference between the two?
Thanks!
Bill
