20、over factory-built chimneys intended for venting gas, liquid, and solid-fuel-red medium-heat type appliances in which the maximum continuous ue-gas temperatures do not exceed 1800F (980C). 1.2 Factory-built chimneys are intended for installation in accordance with the Standard for Chimneys, Fireplac

21、es, Vents, and Solid-Fuel Burning Appliances, NFPA 211, and in accordance with codes such as the International Mechanical Code, and the Uniform Mechanical Code. 1.3 A product that contains features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems new or different from those covered by the require

22、ments in this standard, and that involves a risk of re or of electric shock or injury to persons shall be evaluated using appropriate additional component and end-product requirements to maintain the level of safety as originally anticipated by the intent of this standard. A product whose features,

23、characteristics, components, materials, or systems conict with specic requirements or provisions of this standard does not comply with this standard. Revision of requirements shall be proposed and adopted in conformance with the methods employed for development, revision, and implementation of this

24、standard. 2 Components 2.1 Except as indicated in 2.2, a component of a product covered by this standard shall comply with the requirements for that component. 2.2 A component is not required to comply with a specic requirement that: a) Involves a feature or characteristic not required in the applic

25、ation of the component in the product covered by this standard, or b) Is superseded by a requirement in this standard. 2.3 A component shall be used in accordance with its rating established for the intended conditions of use. 2.4 Specic components are incomplete in construction features or restrict

26、ed in performance capabilities. Such components are intended for use only under limited conditions, such as certain temperatures not exceeding specied limits, and shall be used only under those specic conditions.
