There are different types of chimney pipe available for venting your gas and wood burning fireplaces and stoves. Wood burning units require piping which are made from stainless steel in order to prevent deterioration when burning wood. Gas fireplaces do not necessary need a chimney, but do require some sort of vent. At a minimum gas units require a direct vent to the outside along an exterior wall of the home.

Always check with the manufacturer of your wood burning unit to make sure you get the right type of venting.
