Wall Support
The Wall Support can be used on any
floor level as a Vertical or Horizontal
support. When used to support the
chimney in vertical runs, it is attached to
the wall by means of anchors (by others,
Ø 5/16” anchors or bolts min. size). It
can also be used to support a horizontal
run anchored on a ceiling or a non-
combustible rigid structural brace (by
others, see
Rigid Structural Braces
Specifications
for details).
The Wall Support assembly consists of a
9" chimney interior section (7" effective
length) that is welded to a steel plate
which is supported by angled brackets.
The chimney section has female and
male ends forming just like any standard
length. It can be connected to any other
piece of piping with proper locking bands
and sealant.
(see

Connection
Section
for
specific
instructions)
It is supplied with both an Interior Locking
Band a special External Finishing Band
(top female side) and an Insulation Strip.
(if applicable)

wall, ceiling or structure with proper
anchors. (See

2. Pipe sections are then attached and
sealed to the Wall Support Interior
Section in the same manner as described
