Pass-through device for a chimney

A pass-through device for a chimney, the pass-through device comprising:

• a pass through tube;
• a chimney support disposed within the pass-through tube;
• a connector pipe adapter coupled to an end of the chimney support, and
• a pass-through end cap disposed on an end of the pass-through tube;
• wherein the chimney support is supported by the pass-through tube from within the pass-through tube;
• wherein the pass-through tube comprises an inward interference bead projecting radially inward from an interior surface of the pass-through tube;
• wherein the chimney support comprises a chimney support plate;
• wherein the chimney support plate is supported by the inward interference bead of the pass-through tube owing to gravity;
• wherein a portion of the connector pipe adapter extends through an opening in the pass-through end cap;
• and
• wherein the pass-through end cap does not bear a load from the chimney support and does not bear a load from the connector pipe adapter.

A chimney support system comprising:

• a pass-through tube having at least a portion configured to penetrate through a building structure;
• a chimney support disposed within the pass-through tube and supported by the pass-through tube from within the pass-through tube, the chimney support having a first end configured to be coupled to one of an end of a chimney pipe and an end of a chimney pipe component;
• a connector pipe adapter including:
• a first end coupled to a second end of the chimney support pass-through tube;
• and
• a second end extending outward from an end of the pass-through tube and configured to be disposed on an opposite side of the building structure from the chimney pipe;
• and
• a non-load bearing pass-through end cap disposed on an end of the pass-through tube, the non-load bearing pass-through end cap configured to be disposed on the opposite side of the building structure from the chimney pipe;
• wherein the pass-through tube comprises an inward interference bead projecting radially inward from an interior surface of the pas-through tube;
• wherein the chimney support comprises a chimney support plate;
• wherein the chimney support plate is supported by the inward interference bead of the pass-through tube;
• and
• wherein a location of the inward interference bead along a length of the pass-through tube determines a distance that the second end of the connector pipe adapter extends from the end of the pass-through tube.

A chimney support system comprising:

• a pass-through ube having at least portion configured to penetrate through a building structure;
• a chimney support disposed within the pass-through tube and supported by the pass-through tube from within the pass-tube, the chimney support having a first end configured to be coupled to one of an end of a chimney pipe and an end of a chimney pipe component;
• a connector adapter including:
• a first end coupled to a second end of the chimney support within the pass-through tube;
• and
• a second end extending outward from an end of the pass-through tube and configured to be disposed on an opposite side of the building structure from the chimney pipe;
• and
• a pass-through end cap disposed on an end of the pass-through tube, the pass-through end cap configure to be disposed on the opposite side of the building structure from the chimney pipe,
• wherein the pass-through tube comprises an inward interference bead projecting radially inward from an interior surface of the pass-rough tube;
• wherein the chimney support comprises a chimney support plate;
• wherein the chimney support plate is supported by the inward interference bead of the pass-through tube;
• wherein a location of the inward interreference bead along a length of the pass-through tube determines a distance that thy second end of the connector pipe adapter extends from the end of the pass-through tube;
• and
• wherein the pass-through tube end cap does not bear a load from the chimney support and does not bear a load from the connector pipe adapter.
