EXTENDED ROOF BRACE INSTALLATION 

If the chimney extends more than 5 feet above the roofline, an Extended Roof Brace 
must be installed at every 5-foot increment of chimney height above the roofline, leaving 
nor more than 5 feet of chimney extending above the last Extended Roof Brace.  The 
Extended Roof Brace consists of the Pipe Band, the Adjustable Legs, and the Roof 
Brackets. 
 

1. Mount Pipe Band:  Slip the Pipe Band around the chimney and secure by 

tightening the nut and bolt. 
 

2. Attach the Legs:  The Adjustable Legs of the assembly will adjust from 60” to 

108”.  Secure one end of the Legs to the Pipe Band using the nuts and bolts 
included (1 per leg).  Position the Adjustable legs so they form approximately a 
60° angle with the chimney, and with each other (Fig 13 & 14).  Be sure that 
there is at least 3” of overlap between the top and bottom halves of the 
Adjustable Leg.  In order to secure Legs in proper position, there is a hole
