The Cannon Head 450mm Red Chimney Pot is an essential component for any masonry chimney stack. Properly installed, this chimney pot ensures the safe and efficient conveyance of combustion gases from your solid fuel fire into the atmosphere. Before installation, it's crucial to adhere to Approved Document J to ensure the height and positioning are correct. Inspect the chimney pot to confirm it's undamaged and suitable for your flue system and fire type. Additionally, check your chimney stack for any cracks or defective mortar pointing, repairing as necessary. The flue lining must be clear of debris, and any mortar ingress should be cleaned to facilitate smooth passage of flue gases. Don’t forget to install a damp proof course below the top layer of brickwork. Fill the space between the outside of the flue liner and the chimney stack with insulating material, such as weak lime mortar or lightweight vermiculite type insulating cement. Finally, ensure the chimney stack top is flat for the best performance.
