17. For lateral stability of the chimney above the Wall Support, a Wall
Band must be installed along an outside wall if the chimney is
installed at 2" from the vertical wall and follow steps 17 to 19. Where
horizontal adjustability is needed (more than 2" from the vertical
wall), a Universal Wall Band can be use. For more detailed instruc-
tions see Steps 20 through 28 and Figures 30 through 33.
18. Install the first Wall Band (WB) midway up the first Chimney
Length above the Insulated Tee and any additional Wall Band to be
installed at 8 foot intervals above this point. For systems shorter than
8', at least one WB must be installed. Secure the Wall Band bracket
to the wall using 2 6d (2") spiral nails or #8 x 2" wood screws through
the pre-drilled holes (see Figure 29). For concrete or brick veneer
walls, use suitable masonry fasteners or other anchoring systems.
19. Check for clearances and plumb as you fasten the Wall Bands to
the wall. Use a level against the chimney sections at each support
stage to keep the assembly plumb. Fasten securely the Wall Band
around the chimney with the supplied nut and bolt to secure the
chimney length within the band.

NOTE:
If ground clearance does not permit the installation of the Wall
Support with the Support Bracket facing down, it is permissible to
invert these brackets, if in a non-combustible wall application.
Inverting the brackets (brackets mounted on the wall above the
support plate) can be accomplished by rotating the Support Plate so
that the threaded stud faces toward the front and securing each side
with (2) #8 x 3/4" bolts (not supplied) through the oblong slots of the
support side brackets and the support plate as per Figures 27 and 28.
Secure with nuts. In this position, the range of adjustability is limited
to 5” from the wall (see Table 4) . Install the Insulated Tee Cap as per
step 15.
20. It is required to have a Universal Wall Band (UWB) installed
every 8 feet. For systems shorter than 8’, at least one Universal
Wall Band (UWB) must be installed.
21. Place the two halves of the UWB Band as shown in Figure 21.
Insert the flat head bolt through the middle set of holes in the band
halves marked with the corresponding pipe diameter of the chimney
being installed. (Ex. - for a 6" chimney, place the flathead bolts
through the holes marked 6). The bolt should pass through the
band halves with the tabs oriented outward (See Figure 30).

22. Place the Spacer Clip on the bolt used in the middle of the
assembly and secure with washers and nut (See Figure 30).
23. Form the Band into a ring and loosely connect tabs using the
1/4” x 2” nut and bolt (See Figure 31).
24. Place the Band between the left and right brackets with the
Spacer Clip and Tabs oriented as shown (See Figure 32).
25. Attach the band to the wall brackets using 2 flat head bolts (1
per bracket) and nuts. The bolts should pass through the holes
corresponding to the pipe diameter and through the slots of the
brackets. These slots allow for horizontal adjustment of the pipe
from the wall (See Figure 32).
26. Determine the location at which the assembly will be installed.
(Make sure the wall to which the brackets will be attached is struc-
turally sound, capable of providing adequate anchoring capacity
for lag bolts).
16. Chimney Lengths above the Insulated Tee are simply stacked
on and locked with a 1/8 clockwise turn.
