EXPANSION JOINT
The expansion joint must be used at the top of the masonry stack to close off the stack and to
allow for thermal expansion within the chimney system. It is provided as a closure plate with a
removable adjustable pipe section. The previous pipe section should terminate 200mm below
the top of the chimney stack. The top of the masonry stack should be prepared with a layer of
cement. Then the adjustable pipe length slides down a minimum of 50mm into the proceeding
pipe length, with the expansion joint plate bedding down firmly into the cement at the top of
the masonry stack. The joint between the plate and the adjustable pipe length should be sealed
using an appropriate high temperature sealant. Once securely in place, the plate should be
flaunched to make weatherproof.
