Structural Supports and Guides 

Several  supporting  and  guiding  methods  can  be  used  to  anchor  a  chimney  for  horizontal,  vertical  and  offset  displacement.    These  supports  and 
guides  used  with  thermal  expansion  devices  prevent  bending  stresses  on  the  chimney  elbows  and  joints.  (see 

Thermal  Expansion 

Section

  for 

details)  Supports and guiding methods are described in this Section. 

Base Support 

The  Base  Support  is  the  most  common 
support. It 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 floor 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 
through  wall  or  resting  on  a  non-
combustible  rigid  structural  brace  (by 
others,  see 

Rigid  Structural  Braces 

Specifications 

for details). 

 
The Base Support assembly consists of a 
9"  chimney  interior  section  (7"  effective 
length)  that  is  welded  to  a  steel  plate.  
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 

Chimney  Joint 

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) 
 
Installation : 

 

1.  Plate  is  secured  to  floor,  wall  or 
structure  with  proper  anchors.    (See 

Table  6 

for  Maximum  Supported 

Chimney  Height  (MCH)  per  support  and 

Table 7

 for Maximum Horizontal Spacing 

between Supports (MHS)). 

 

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

Chimney 

Joint Connection

 Section

 depending on 

the venting application. 

 

3. Install insulation strips (when required) 
and External Finishing Bands. 

 

The Base Support is intended only for 
attachment  to  NON  COMBUSTIBLE 
materials  such  as  steel  structure, 
concrete  or  other  types  of  masonry.  
The  Base  Support  is  not  suitable  for 
attachment  to  wood  or  combustible 
structures.
