Chimney Applications
DEKTITE pipeboots come in either EPDM rubber or high temperature, red silicone. Silicone are
typically used in higher temperature applications, like B-Vent or direct vent chimneys, for example.
They are NOT meant to be used on stove pipe.
In order to determine whether a silicone boot is acceptable for a particular application;
1.
first determine the maximum temperature (both constant and intermittent) that is expected on
the surface of the pipe from the appliance manufacturer
2.
next, check the DEKS spec. sheet to see if DEKTITE silicone pipeboots meet the required
temperature requirements

Non-professionals and do-it-yourselfers should always check with a professional installer to ensure
they have the correct product for the application.
Note: We have learned that for Class A type double-walled chimneys, (eg. Selkirk Chimney), some
jurisdictions require a 1” separation between the pipeboot and the outside wall of the chimney.
Selkirk manufacturers a special kit for these installations that includes a #9 DEKTITE EPDM pipeboot
and all the necessary hardware.
