Default Chimney too close to roof

Check local code compliance in your area with the AHJ. If
typical, it will require a minimum of 2 feet above the ridge or a
minimum of 10 feet from the closest roof surface.

The chimney to our wood-burning stove is too close to the higher
roof
next to it. Actually, it butts right up against it. I'm trying
to
figure out how to fix this problem as economically as possible.
Any
suggestions, other than ripping the stove out?
