8.8 Chimney Support Installation
8.8.1 Universal Roof Support
This support has three possible uses:
1. It must be used on a roof to support the chimney.
2. It may be used on a floor, ceiling or roof above an offset to support the chimney above the offset.
3. It may be used on a floor, ceiling or roof as a supplementary support.
For roof support installation, refer to the instructions provided with the support by the chimney
manufacturer. Many manufacturers will provide the maximum height of chimney that can be supported by
the support. Make sure you respect those parameters.
