Question

Chimney lable
I am looking for a 12 inch tall Heatilator chimney section that measures 14 inches on the outside diameter and has a 9 inch flue. The existing chimney was made by Vega Industries for heatilator, I'm guessing in the mid-1970s. Attached is a lable from the 45 degree chimney section it will attach to. Where can I find this part? thanks.

Answer
Hello Rex, this is a problem with in the industry, I tell a customer that the pipe needs to be replace and can not find 25 + year old pipe any where, and then tell the customer that the hole chimney and fireplace will have to be replaced. Not what any one wants to hear
I am sorry I do not know where to get pipe that old
did you try an internet search of Heatilator?
