Roof Support - ICC EXCEL Installation And Maintenance Instructions Manual

ROOF SUPPORT (ESR)
The roof support may be used to support the chimney on a flat or inclined
roof.
When using a roof support the chimney must extend in to the room a
minimum of 6 inches below a finished ceiling. You must also maintain the
required horizontal clearance between the single or double wall connector
and the combustible ceiling - see diagram below.
See the table on page 3 to determine the minimum opening required in the
roof. The chimney must have 2" of clearance all around - regardless of roof
pitch.
1. Assemble the roof support band following the instructions on page 14.
2. Bolt on the two 90° roof support brackets. These brackets require two
elevator bolts per bracket - see the drawing above. Leave these bolts
loose.
