Introduction
When it comes to chimney installations, safety, durability, and efficiency are paramount. The Long Roof Support – Ø 175 by National Flues is specifically engineered to meet these demands. Designed for both solid fuel and gas/oil heating systems, this robust support offers an optimal solution for installing your chimney flue with ease and confidence. Whether you are a professional installer or a homeowner undertaking a DIY project, understanding the features and benefits of this product is essential for a successful and secure installation.
Product Overview
The Long Roof Support – Ø 175 is manufactured using high-grade stainless steel, combining 304-grade for the outer skin and 316-grade for the inner skin, both with a thickness of 0.40mm. The dual-layer design, reinforced with compressed rockwool insulation (200kg/m3 for TWPro and 128kg/m3 for KC), ensures that the support not only meets the highest standards of durability and thermal resistance but also adheres to strict safety norms. This product is HETAS approved and CE marked, offering you the assurance that you are investing in a reliable and compliant component.
Material Quality and Safety Standards
One of the standout features of the Long Roof Support is its construction. The use of high-quality stainless steel ensures longevity in even the most demanding environments. Stainless steel is renowned for its resistance to rust and corrosion, meaning that your chimney support will perform effectively over many years. The support's compliance with TWPro and KC standards guarantees that it maintains the correct distances from combustible materials (50mm for TWPro and 60mm for KC), which is a critical safety measure when installing any flue system. This makes the product ideal not only for new installations but also for upgrades and repairs in older systems.
Installation Ease and Flexibility
Installation of the Long Roof Support – Ø 175 is straightforward, particularly due to its innovative design. The support rotates on two screws, which facilitates vertical installation through the roof. Once attached securely to the rafters, the Locking Band ensures that all components of your chimney system remain tightly connected, even under varying weather conditions. For additional stability and a customised fit, consider exploring optional accessories such as sealing kits or inspection covers. These accessories help improve the overall integrity of your installation, making it as efficient and safe as possible.
Addressing Common Concerns
Durability and Longevity
Prospective buyers often worry about the lifespan of installation components. The Long Roof Support’s articulated design using high-grade stainless steel, coupled with state-of-the-art insulation, minimizes heat loss and provides exceptional durability. This translates into a longer lifespan with less maintenance required, an important factor for both residential and commercial installations.
Safety and Regulatory Compliance
Safety is a non-negotiable aspect when dealing with chimney systems. This support is built and tested to ensure that it meets stringent HETAS and CE requirements, thereby providing peace of mind. The clear delineation of distances from combustible materials underscores its commitment to safety. Additionally, if you have concerns about compliance, our detailed product guides and technical literature are available to address every aspect of installation standards and regulatory guidelines.
Compatibility with Additional Accessories
Another frequent concern is the compatibility of the support with optional accessories that can further enhance the installation. National Flues offers a range of complementary accessories such as sealing kits and inspection covers that work seamlessly with the Long Roof Support. These accessories not only ensure a more secure installation but also help in tailoring the flue system to your specific needs. It is advisable to consider these add-ons as part of the complete installation package to maximise overall performance and safety.
Practical Advice for Installation
Before beginning the installation, ensure that you have thoroughly reviewed the installation guidelines. Key considerations include verifying the structural integrity of the roof rafters and ensuring that the support is correctly aligned to maintain the minimum required distances from combustibles. We recommend consulting with a qualified professional if you are unsure about any aspect of the installation process. Additionally, optional accessories should be checked for compatibility and quality to ensure that your chimney system works optimally, offering maximum efficiency and durability.
