ANCHOR PLATE
When commencing an installation with a fire chest, hood or similar an anchor plate with plain
end should be used. When extending an existing brick or masonry chimney stack, an anchor
plate must be used which needs to be lined with a TecnoFlex Plus Liner then the anchor plate
with the screw fit connection should be used . The liner of the Anchor Plate should be pushed
into the opening of the fire chest with the plate resting on a bed of fire cement. The plate
should then be fixed onto the concrete slab by masonry screws fitted through the pre-drilled
holes in the plate.
In the case of a chimney extension, the liner of the anchor plate fits down inside the existing
chimney stack. If a TecnoFlex Plus chimney liner is being used then the anchor plate is secured to
the liner by twisting in a clockwise direction. The plate should then be then be bolted to the top
of the existing chimney and sealed using fire cement.
