From the ceiling support box my class A Duratech goes up through the attic to just below the roof. Another 4 ft section penetrates the roof and extends about 44 inches above the roof. There is a metal strap that makes one wraparound and attaches to the rafter on each side in the attic just below the roof flashing. The only other bracing/stabilizing point is where the chimney makes contact with the top
of the flashing/siliconed storm collar intersection.
The chimney seems rigid when lightly pushed on from the roof. Do you think this is adequately braced? Thoughts and ideas are appreciated. Thanks.
