Bricking Flange
Fire Rock Bricking Flange allows a brick or stone chimney to be used for interior fireplace installations. This product is an integral part of your Fire Rock Solid Block Chimney system and provides a ledge around the chimney for stacking brick or stone.
A Bricking Flange is installed directly below the low side of the roofline inside the attic space. This steel reinforced masonry ledge is important since most codes do not allow brick or stone above the roof to be supported by wooden roof trusses. Please consult local building codes for specifics regarding masonry above the roof.
Bricking Flange is ideal in circumstances where covenants require the veneer of the chimney match the veneer of the house; the actual material used on the house can be stacked on the Bricking Flange. For more information, please refer to page 20 in our Installation and Specification Manual or consult your Fire Rock sales representative.
The Bricking Flange measures 32" x 32" x 4" which allows for a 3’x3’ or 3’x4’ chimney profile with modification.
