Can it be done safely and securely and with the following strap system from Perfect10?? If not can I get some suggestions from some senior installers please...

TIA

Mount, EZ S/S Chimney 2-12 ft strap (EZ2824S )

yes it can, BUT the tech isnt doing that for FREE!!!

and i would double the straps.


hehe...I am the tech....but Ive never done a chimney strap....what is avg price to charge a cx for this type of work?
 
is the idiot buying the straps?? how tall is the ladder? i charge 60 for straps. also tell the idiot , if he needs a service call in the winter... he aint getting one until the snow melts!

tell him the dish goes on the side wall of the house.
 
lol....his current phase 3 dish is mounted to the chimney using lag bolts...and thats how he wanted this one but i knew the weight of it just wouldnt hold....i cant get him on a pole mount either due to trees....another reason i cant hit the side of the house....and he dont want it lagged to the roof either.....i charged him 75 and i bought the strap
 
I would trust the lag bolts more than I would trust the straps. If it is lag bolts it is probably a wood chimney surround, that will dry out and shrink with different weather conditions your Ka may not hold.
