Phoenix Domes Metal Chimney Flashing Kit

For to-code installation of a chimney going straight up through the roof of your Dome, you will need a metal flashing that leaves 2" total clearance around your insulated stovepipe. This kit is designed for full size wood-burning stoves with a 6" stove pipe. 

The kit can be installed anywhere on your Dome (or Zome) that is no steeper than about 45 degrees. You will not require a pre-manufactured opening. 

We recommend using an 8" outer diameter insulated chimney as it is lighter, easier to handle, and doesn't require a support bracket. We can make the kit for 10" outer diameter chimneys if required - please contact us via email if this is the case.

Always fully tighten nuts with impact driver or socket wrench in order to ensure occupant safety. 

8" vs. 10" Insulated Chimney Pipe?

Unless your region's building code specifies the necessity for 10" OD (outer diameter) insulated chimney pipe, we highly recommend going with an 8" OD option for ease of installation and cost savings.

Our standard are optimized to be used with 8" OD chimney pipes and standard 6" stove pipes. The 10” is awkward and heavy and you’ll need to purchase additional chimney support for it, whereas the 8” is a lot more elegant, easier to work with, and won't require additional chimney support (unless you happen to live in a region with frequent heavy winds).

In Canada, Canadian Tire and Home Depot sell the 10” OD chimney pipes but professional fireplace suppliers will sell the 8”.

You'll want a matching vent cap and adapter (from 6” stove pipe to 8” chimney) as well - these are standard and they should have them in stock. Let them know you won't require a support box like you would for a standard timber-frame hourse. 2 lengths of chimney should be enough - 1 will be half inside half outside your Dome, the second one stacking on top way up in the air.

6” stove pipe is standard, and the 8” OD chimney has 1” of insulation which is totally to code (in Canada) and actually has the same clearance requirements as the 2” insulated.

We CAN order in 10” flashings and modify them as necessary for Domes, it just takes a little extra time & money.

Kit Includes

• Outer metal flashing sized for 8" OD (6" inner Diameter) chimney pipe

Designed for the North American Climate
Our packages offer the key features you need, such as:

Zip-off panorama windows
For maximum ventilation during hot days. Without it you may be forced to install expensive air conditioning for the summer months

Machine washable, multi-section interior fabric liner
None of that quilted batting that's impossible to clean and only collects mildew. Easy to install, easy to clean Double layer insulation - reflective bubble liner insulation that bounces heat right back into your space, plus an additional air gap thanks to the interior liner

Free engineer-stamped exact-fit platform plans
Making it easy to seal out critters, creepy crawlies, and the weather. Square platforms allow water to run under and into your Dome without costly compensation via an elevated internal subfloor

Complimentary Engineer Reports for 5 Major Canadian Provinces
Stamped structural wind/snow load investigations available for BC, AB, ON, NS, NB. Flammability testing data sheets as well! If you require engineer studies done for your particular region outside of these, we are happy to pair you up with one of the engineers we typically work with who is already familiar with Domes

Frame sizes engineered for Canadian snow loads
Light frame Domes are excellent in warmer areas, medium frame will handle almost anything your region is capable of throwing at it (as well as human body weight in most cases, for aerial studios or similar!), and heavy frame is capable of withstanding North America's highest snow loads

Chimney and pipe flashing kits that will satisfy any inspector
These are designed for locally available, CSA-approved stoves and pipes, and can be installed anywhere on your Dome at any time

Heavy-duty cover tensioning system
Offering a much smoother, tighter look than the competition's weak cumbersome lacing

Designed for a quality door of your choice
Some companies include a metal/glass door, which might sound great, and we actually used to offer this type of door ourselves... until we found that it would easily blow open in the wind and basically fall apart, leaving you with an opening that does not fit a standard door available locally. Thus, we decided that getting a regular door at your local building supply will give you a better quality door over time, and allows you to choose your own style depending on your Dome's intended function. This also gives you the option of buying used, and helps you save on shipping!

Market-Leading Innovation
You won't find our style of Zomes anywhere else. Nobody else is hanging entire geospheres 10ft up in the air either. We've got more spheres on the way too, but we're not currently at liberty to share further details just yet... Our 1V geodesic dome Starpod brackets? We had them custom manufactured. Our wood paneling kits? Equally unique, and we haven't even received our CNC machine yet... (stay tuned!). Triangle glass windows? Same story

Customization and Ongoing Support
Want to add an awning later? A glass window? Attach 2 domes together? Hang your Dome way up in the air? Other creative ideas? We are constantly innovating on products and features, sharing them with our customers, and supporting you straight through from ideation all the way up to the Dome of your dreams!
