The Joiner - Ø 200 is an essential accessory designed for use with MI-FLEX 316L and 904 flexible flue liners. This joiner is crucial when the length of your chimney liner exceeds the maximum available flex length, allowing two pieces of multi-fuel liner to connect seamlessly. It is critical to note that this joiner must not be used with gas liners.
Compliant with Building Regulations Document J, the MI-FLEX system is only suitable for installation within a masonry chimney – non-masonry enclosures like timber or plasterboard are not acceptable. Rated for use with appliances up to 600°C (T600 designation), it is ideal for wood with less than 20% moisture, smokeless coal, gas, and oil. Regular sweeping and maintenance, preferably by HETAS registered professionals, are essential to ensure longevity and safety.
Solid fuel appliances require more frequent cleaning to prevent build-up and blockages.
Ensure that the Joiner - Ø 200 is installed within a masonry chimney as part of a MI-FLEX multi-fuel liner system. Before installation, verify that the chimney liner does not exceed the maximum flexible length available and that each component is compatible. Important: This joiner must not be used with gas liners. Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines strictly and have your installation inspected by a HETAS registered professional. Regular chimney sweeping and maintenance are crucial—especially for solid fuel appliances—to prevent build-up or blockages, ensuring safe operation over time. Always keep the installation area free of combustibles and adhere to all local building regulations.

Sweeping and maintenance should be conducted by a competent person. For solid fuel applications, HETAS registered professionals are recommended.

When planning your chimney installation, it is crucial to select components that not only meet safety standards but also enhance the overall performance of your flue system. The Joiner - Ø 200 from National Flues is specifically designed for connecting MI-FLEX multi-fuel flexible flue liners when the liner length exceeds the maximum flex available. In this extensive guide, we will explore the unique features, key benefits, installation details, maintenance tips, and frequently asked questions regarding this indispensable accessory.
Understanding the Product
The Joiner - Ø 200 is constructed from high-grade 316L stainless steel, ensuring excellent durability and resistance to corrosion. This material is particularly suited to handling the thermal stresses associated with wood, smokeless coal, gas, and oil applications. It is important to note that even though the joiner accommodates multiple fuel types, it is not suitable for gas liners. This product is strictly designed for incorporation within masonry chimneys, complying directly with Building Regulations Document J.
Key Benefits and Features
Seamless Connection: The joiner facilitates a robust connection between two pieces of MI-FLEX multi-fuel liner, bridging any gap caused by limitations in available flex length. This seamless join ensures that your chimney system remains safe and effective.
Durability and Quality: Made from 316L stainless steel, the joiner is not only resilient against high temperatures but also offers long-term durability with minimal maintenance. The natural finish lends it a clean, contemporary look that complements modern fireplaces.
Fuel Versatility: Whether you are using wood with less than 20% moisture, smokeless coal, oil, or gas (with approved components), this joiner is designed to support a range of fuel types, making it highly versatile for various installations.
Regulatory Compliance: Safety is paramount in any installation, and the Joiner - Ø 200 complies with all essential safety standards and building regulations in the UK. This compliance guarantees that your installation will meet the necessary guidelines for safe operation.
Installation Process
Installing the Joiner - Ø 200 is a straightforward process, but it should always be undertaken by a competent professional, ideally a HETAS registered technician. Below are the key steps involved:
• Verify that the chimney is a masonry structure, as the MI-FLEX system is not suitable for other enclosures like timber or plasterboard.
• Measure the existing flue components to ensure that the joiner will be required to bridge any gap in the liner length.
• Follow the manufacturer's installation guide meticulously to achieve a secure and aligned connection between the liner pieces.
• Conduct a thorough inspection post-installation to ensure that there are no leaks or misalignments that could compromise the system's efficiency.
Maintenance and Safety Considerations
For the continued efficient performance of your chimney system, regular maintenance is essential. Solid fuel appliances, in particular, require more frequent cleaning to avoid build-up, which could lead to blockages. Ensure that:
• The chimney is swept at least twice a year: once at the end of the heating season and once before the next season begins.
• Inspections are carried out regularly to detect any early signs of wear or blockages in the flue system.
• Any cleaning or maintenance work is performed by a qualified professional, especially in systems that utilise solid fuels.
Regular maintenance not only enhances the longevity of your chimney components but also ensures that the system operates safely and efficiently, reducing the risk of fire hazards.
Addressing Common Concerns
It is natural to have questions when considering a product like the Joiner - Ø 200. Below are answers to some common queries:
Q: Can the joiner be used with gas liners?
A: No, the joiner is not designed for gas liners and should only be used with MI-FLEX multi-fuel liner systems intended for wood, smokeless coal, oil, and approved gas applications.
Q: What maintenance is required once installed?
A: Regular inspections and sweeping are recommended to ensure the chimney remains free from soot and debris, especially if using solid fuels—typically, a minimum twice a year is advised.
Q: Is this joiner compliant with building regulations?
A: Yes, the product fully complies with Building Regulations Document J, ensuring that all safety and performance criteria are met.
