Add the Height Your Fireplace—and Your Space—Needs
Chimney Extensions increase the height of your fireplace to create additional clearance, improve draft, or bring the structure into better proportion with your home, pavilion, or surrounding architecture. In larger outdoor spaces, the added height can give the fireplace more presence and help it feel appropriately scaled rather than visually undersized.
Extensions are supplied in 24-inch sections, with up to 48 inches of additional chimney height available. Because the block courses allow the finished height to be adjusted in 4-inch increments, you can tailor the extension more precisely to the needs of your project.
Additional chimney height may also improve performance in windy or challenging locations by helping smoke rise and draft more effectively. Where nearby roofs, pergolas, or other structures affect the installation, extensions can provide the extra height needed to create appropriate clearance. Final placement and height should always follow the fireplace instructions and applicable local requirements.
Chimney Extensions work with every Cornerstone outdoor fireplace model and use the same coordinated materials and dry-stack construction system as the fireplace. Because the added masonry increases the weight and height of the completed structure, include the extension when planning the fireplace footing and overall installation.
Design Your Fireplace More Than 750 Ways
Every Cornerstone fireplace can be customized with different colors, chimney heights, wood storage, gas log options, and architectural additions such as Estate Wing Walls. By combining these choices, you can create more than 750 possible fireplace configurations.
Choose a single wing wall for an asymmetrical layout, add a matching pair for the full Estate look, or combine them with other fireplace upgrades to create a design that fits your patio, your home, and the way you plan to use the space.
Because the fireplaces and accessories are designed as one coordinated system, you can plan the finished project before ordering and build it without cutting or mortaring the blocks.
Add Accessories When You Order Your Fireplace
Every fireplace accessory is compatible with every Cornerstone outdoor fireplace model and can be selected through the configurator when ordering your fireplace kit.
We recommend including all planned accessories with your original purchase so the complete project can be prepared together and the materials coordinated as closely as possible. Accessories requested later require a special order and will typically cost more because of separate preparation, handling, and shipping.
