It shall be unlawful for any person to enter, or cause to be entered, any stovepipe into an outlet other than a brick chimney constructed with what is known as flue lining, well burnt clay, or terra cotta pipe, nor shall any person run a stovepipe through any partition, floor, or roof, except through a ventilator in the partition, floor, or roof. All chimneys hereafter constructed shall be lined continuously on the inside with such materials as hereinbefore provided, shall be made smooth on the inside from the bottom of the flue or from the throat of the fireplace, if the flue starts from the latter, and shall be carried up continuously to the extreme height of the flue. The ends of all lining pipes shall be made to fit close together; the pipe shall be built in as the flue is carried up and shall extend at least six inches above the cap of the chimney. Each flue shall be enclosed on all sides with not less than four inches of solid brickwork properly banded together, and the withes or brickwork between the lined flues on the inside of the chimney shall be four inches in thickness. All chimneys, flues, and fireplaces shall be kept at all times clean and free from accumulation of soot, ashes and cinders, and in good and proper repair, and no metal flues or stovepipes shall pass through any wooden partition, ceiling, floor, or roof of any house or building.
