UL Listed Sizes: 3" 12" diameters
Manufactured Exclusively for: Copperfield Chimney Supply, Inc.,
304 South 20th Street, Fairfield, IA 52556 LISTED INTRODUCTION
HomeSaver Pro flexible stainless steel relining pipe is intended for use in
conjunction with residential heating appliances which burn wood, wood
pellets, coal, or oil, any Category I LP or natural gas appliances, and gas
logs installed in a fireplace. HomeSaver Pro shall be installed in masonry
chimneys and may be installed in certain factory-built chimney applica-
tions.
HomeSaver Pro relining pipe is a high-quality, patented, flexible, stainless
steel lining system. It has been tested and listed by Underwriters
Laboratories, file #MH13768. HomeSaver Pro is made of high-quality, 316
Ti-alloy stainless steel. This maintains the corrosion resistance while also
giving the benefits of high heat resistance.
HomeSaver Pro is a corrugated
liner with a unique mechanical,
roll-lock seam. These seams are
gas tight and hold tight no matter
how much you bend or shape
them (Figure 1).
HomeSaver requires that an expe-
rienced professional who works
with chimneys on a regular basis
perform the installation of
HomeSaver Pro relining pipe.
HomeSaver Pro is tested and listed to the UL 1777 Standard which requires
insulation for wood and coal applications, explained later on. Acceptance
of the lining system is void if these installation instructions are not fol-
lowed.
HomeSavers commitment to providing a product of superior quality is
reflected in its obtaining the UL Listing. The testing is very stringent, and
UL ensures consistency of the product by regularly inspecting the manu-
facturing facility and materials. This commitment is also reflected in
HomeSavers excellent warranty.

Figure 1 SECTION 1
How To Determine If A Reline Is Needed
A reline is advisable when:
The chimney has missing or damaged flue tiles, or mortar is missing
between flue tiles.
The cross-sectional area of the flue of a chimney with no walls exposed
to the outside below the roofline is more than three times the cross-sec-
tional area of the appliance flue collar.
The cross-sectional area of the flue of a chimney with one or more
walls exposed to the outside below the roofline is more than two times
the cross-sectional area of the appliance flue collar.
Deemed necessary by the appliance manufacturer.
Deemed necessary according to the NFPA 211, NFPA 31 Oil Standard,
or the NFPA 54 Fuel Gas Code Book.
The system has a history of repeated excessive creosote and/or mois-
ture buildup.
SECTION 2
Important Code And Safety Considerations
CHIMNEY HEIGHT
The National Fire Pro-
tection Association Stan-
dard 211 requires that
the chimney extend at
least 3' above the highest
point where it passes
through the roof and at
least 2' higher than any
structure within 10'
(Figure 2).

Figure 2 CLEARANCES
Masonry Chimneys
Airspace clearances between the masonry chimney exterior and com-
bustible materials should be checked to verify whether the chimney is in
accordance with the clearance specifications contained in:
1. NFPA 211
2. Other recognized major building codes
3. These instructions
NFPA 211 states that the minimum airspace clearance between exterior
masonry chimneys (which have the chimney completely outside the exte-
rior wall of the building, excluding the soffit or cornice area) and com-
bustible material shall be at least 1".
NFPA 211 states that the minimum airspace clearance between interior
masonry chimneys (which have any portion of the chimney located with-
in the exterior wall of the building) and combustible materials shall be at
least 2". The airspace shall not be filled.
Factory-built Chimneys
Before beginning the installation, determine if the existing factory-built
fireplace and chimney system has been installed correctly and required
clearances have been maintained. Be sure the factory-built chimney and
components are not warped, rusted, or damaged in any way. The system
must be structurally sound. If there is damage to the system, insufficient
clearances, or rusting of components, these parts must be replaced! Do not
install a liner if the above requirements cannot be met!
Make sure you are connecting to an appliance that has been listed for
installation in a zero clearance fireplace and that all clearances and require-
ments set forth by the listed insert manufacturer have been met. Also make
sure the fireplace manufacturer has approved this type of installation. This
installation is approved for these types of appliances with a 6" collar only. Only a
6" HomeSaver Pro, HomeSaver UltraPro or HomeSaver RoundFlex liner may be
used.
CONNECTING OTHER APPLIANCES
Use of this liner is approved for wood, wood pellets, coal, or oil, any
Category I LP or natural gas appliances, and gas logs installed in a fire-
place. However, it is important to remember:
4
CODES AND SAFETY / MATERIALS TO USE You cannot connect gas or oil appliances to a liner serving solid fuel-burn-
ing appliances. You cannot connect more than one, solid fuel-burning
appliance to a single HomeSaver Pro liner. Be sure to consult the authori-
ty having jurisdiction for any special code and permit requirements.
SECTION 3
Determining The Materials You Need
1. WHAT SIZE OF HOMESAVER PRO LINER TO USE
When relining to a solid fuel appliance, HomeSaver Pro must be properly
sized to that appliance as specified in the appliance manufacturers
instructions. For solid fuels, the cross-sectional area shall not be less than
the area of the appliance flue collar. Only a 6" HomeSaver Pro, UltraPro, or
RoundFlex liner may be used to line a factory-built chimney when being
connected to a listed solid fuel-burning insert or hearth stove. The mini-
mum inside diameter of the factory built pipe must be 8". Please refer to
the chart in Figure 3, which gives the cross-sectional areas for 3" 12"
HomeSaver Pro. When using HomeSaver Pro to vent a fireplace (Figure 4),
if the chimney is straight and at least 8' tall and you are using a round pipe,
the cross-sectional opening of the flue liner (Area A) should usually be no
less than
1 12
of the face opening of the fireplace chamber (Area B) to ensure
proper draft. If the chimney is offset, or if the liner is square, oval or rec-
tangular, the flue liner shall not be less than
1 10
of the fireplace

Figure 4 opening.You should refer to NFPA 211 for additional sizing specifications.
For oil-burning appliances, the flue shall be sized according to the appli-
ance manufacturer or the NFPA 31 Oil Standard. For LP or natural gas
appliances, the flue shall be sized according to the appliance manufactur-
er or the NFPA 54 Fuel Gas Code Book. In all cases, the authority having
jurisdiction can mandate sizing.
2. DETERMINING WHAT LENGTH OF HOMESAVER PRO LINER IS
NEEDED
Determine the length of liner needed by lowering a weighted rope down
the chimney to where your relining pipe terminates. Add another 3" for the
installation of the top clamp, storm collar, and Guardian Cap or the rain
cap with band connection and the CollarPlate.
If needed, HomeSaver Pro may be cut with an angle grinder or circular
saw with a metal-cutting blade.
The maximum recommended height for HomeSaver Pro is 65'. Minimum
height is 10'.
3. INSULATING THE LINER
Insulation is required when venting solid fuel appliances but is optional for wood
pellet appliances, oil appliances, and Category I LP o
