You really need some support for those elbows.

Its all locked and screwed together, it will be fine

Then why do all manufacturers require support of elbows? What chimney did you use? There is allot of leverage on that and the roof support isn't really helping much at all to stop the pivoting force on those elbows.

At first I thought you were saying their elbows needed support from the beers their holding.

Haha no not exactly

I looked through trying to find elbow support brackets and couldn't find anything other than flimsy strapping that you would use to support chimney pipe inside an attic

What about hurricane straps from home Depot

What chimney pipe did you use? And yes the elbow support brackets are not very substantial. In the very few instances where we elbow around the soffit I generally make up some sort of support bracket to mount a wall support to above the elbows.

Roger - we will devise something, it the stack is as solid as a rock, literally pushing pulling on it when we installed the roof support brackets, but another strap will be made to keep it safe, he's got 3 baby's living in that house.

Good Iam not trying to give you a hard time just want to make sure it is safe. I have seen more than one install like that where it came apart in that area in one the elbow itself actually failed.

Thats a good old vacuum in those pics. I have one just like it.

I think you'll be real happy with that Englander.

They shouldn't...those beers are light and they're in aluminum cans.
