Imperial Stove Pipe Black 5" x 24"

A. The Imperial BM0110 Stove Pipe Black 5" x 24" is designed for use as an exposed single-wall connector pipe between a compatible heating appliance and chimney system.

Its 5-inch diameter is intended for appliances and venting components that specify a 5-inch connection. The 24-inch section helps create a direct connector run in homes, cabins, workshops, and other properly configured installations.

This product is a connector pipe rather than a complete chimney. The appliance instructions, chimney requirements, and local building codes should be reviewed before installation.

A. The Imperial BM0110 is compatible with approved heating appliances that require a 5-inch single-wall connector pipe.

Compatibility depends on the appliance’s flue-collar diameter, fuel type, installation manual, and chimney configuration. The complete system should use properly sized components that are approved for the intended appliance and application.

Do not change the specified vent diameter without approval from the appliance manufacturer or local authority. A qualified installer can confirm that the appliance, connector pipe, adapters, and chimney work together safely.

A. The Imperial BM0110 requires 18 inches of clearance from combustible materials.

Combustible materials can include wood framing, furniture, paneling, and other surfaces that may ignite when exposed to heat. The required clearance should be maintained around the full connector-pipe run unless a code-approved clearance-reduction method is used.

Materials behind a wall covering may also be combustible. Always verify clearances using the appliance instructions and applicable local codes before operating the heating system.

A. The Imperial BM0110 has an approximate installed length of 22¾ inches.

Rural Energy specifies subtracting 1¼ inches from the listed 24-inch length when calculating the installed length. This accounts for the overlap where the pipe connects to another compatible component.

Measure the complete connector route before ordering. Elbows, adapters, adjustable sections, and the appliance connection can affect the total amount of pipe required.

A. No, the Imperial BM0110 is a single-wall connector pipe and should not be used as a complete chimney system.

It is intended for the exposed indoor connection between a compatible appliance and an approved chimney. A listed chimney system and the required transition components must be used where the venting route reaches the chimney or passes through building construction.

Using connector pipe where chimney pipe is required can create unsafe temperatures and clearances. Follow the installation instructions for every component in the venting system.

A. The Imperial BM0110 single-wall connector pipe should not pass directly through a wall, ceiling, attic, closet, or other concealed space.

An approved wall-pass-through assembly, ceiling support, insulated chimney component, or other code-compliant system is required where venting enters building construction. These components are designed to control heat and maintain the required separation from combustible materials.

This distinction is especially important in rural homes and cabins where reliable, safe operation is essential and service may be difficult to access.

A. The Imperial BM0110 is a straightforward fixed-length connector section, but safe installation requires accurate sizing, secure joints, and proper clearances.

The 5-inch pipe must connect correctly to the appliance, adjoining connector components, and chimney transition. The installed route should also support proper draft and allow access for inspection and cleaning.

Homeowners who are unsure about component orientation, joint security, chimney compatibility, or local requirements should work with a qualified installer.
