Mounting Start Platform for Insulated Chimney
Product Description
The Mounting Start Platform is a fundamental load-bearing component that serves as the starting base ("zero level") for the entire vertical stack of a three-layer chimney. It consists of a sturdy plate with an integrated insulated "cup" into which the first component of the chimney system is installed (for example, an inspection tee or a condensate drain). The platform is installed on a primary support structure—either a wall console or a floor support.
Key Features
- Correct System Start: The platform provides a perfectly level and stable base for the twin-wall chimney, ensuring its strict vertical alignment and correct positioning.
- Even Load Distribution: The wide plate of the platform takes the concentrated weight load from the bottom edge of the chimney and distributes it evenly over the entire area of the main support structure (console or floor stand).
- Ensures Convenient Servicing: The "cup" design elevates the base of the chimney. This is critically important for allowing access to a removable condensate drain, enabling its bottom part to be easily detached for cleaning.
- Fully Insulated: The "cup" of the platform is fully insulated with non-combustible basalt wool, which maintains the integrity of the insulated chimney's thermal envelope and prevents the formation of cold bridges.

Application & IMPORTANT INSTALLATION RULES
- NOT A STANDALONE SUPPORT: The platform must be installed on a solid load-bearing structure (console, floor stand, concrete slab). It is forbidden to fasten the platform directly to plasterboard or other non-load-bearing surfaces.
- Recommended Installation Scheme: The correct installation sequence is: Wall/Floor → Primary Support (Console or Stand) → Start Platform → First Chimney Component.
- Ensure Levelness: The base on which the platform is installed must be perfectly horizontal to guarantee the vertical alignment of the entire insulated chimney structure.
