2 pairs of Elbows (4 elbows total) in any one 
chimney system. 
1. Attach Elbows: Attach Elbows to Chimney 
Sections or other Elbows by twisting clockwise 
until they lock rmly. Attach one Elbow to the 
Chimney Section below, and align it for the 
offset. If the needed direction of the Elbow 
is different than the fully locked position, the 
Elbow can be rotated to desired direction 
and can be secured to pipe section with a 
minimum of (4) sheet metal screws. Do not 
penetrate the inner wall. Refer to Table 3 to 
determine the required offset length and attach 
an appropriate length (or lengths) of Chimney 
Section(s) above the Elbow. Do not exceed 
the maximum lengths between the Elbows 
specied in Table 3. Attach the second Elbow 
above the Chimney Section to complete the 
offset. (Figure 17). 
2. Secure Offset: Place the Elbow Strap’s 
band around the angled portion of the top 
Elbow, then tighten the nut and bolt until the 
clamp is rm. Wrap the Elbow Strap end 
over an adjacent joist or rafter and secure it 
with at least two 8-penny nails. Do not add 
more Chimney Sections until the Elbows are 
supported. Be sure that the chimney remains 
vertical. If the total length of the Chimney 
Sections between the two Elbows exceeds 3 
feet, install a second Elbow Strap around the 
center of the Chimney Section(s).
