The Nose Cone - Ø 150 is an indispensable installation accessory specifically designed for use with MI-FLEX 316 and 904 flexible flue liners. This essential fitting helps to guide the flexible liner down the chimney without catching on the sides of the stack, ensuring a seamless installation. Perfectly suited for multi-fuel systems, this nose cone is compatible with wood (moisture <20%), smokeless coal, gas, and oil appliances, and can withstand temperatures up to 600°C (T600 designation). Adhering to Building Regulations Document J, these liners must be fully enclosed within a masonry chimney, and not within non-masonry enclosures like timber or plasterboard.

Comprehensive Buyers Guide for the National Flues Nose Cone - Ø 150
The National Flues Nose Cone - Ø 150 is more than just an accessory; it is a key component in ensuring the smooth and secure installation of your MI-FLEX flue liner. In this guide, we will walk you through all the benefits, features, installation instructions, and maintenance tips, so you can be confident in your purchase.
Why Choose the Nose Cone - Ø 150?
This high-quality accessory is specifically designed to facilitate the installation of flexible flue liners by ensuring that the liner does not snag on the sides of the chimney during installation. Whether you are working with MI-FLEX 316 or 904 flue liners, this nose cone guarantees a streamlined and effective installation process. With its impressive temperature resistance of up to 600°C, it is built to maintain performance even under extreme conditions. Its multi-fuel compatibility means it can be used with wood, oil, gas, and smokeless coal – a versatility few accessories can offer.
Key Features and Their Benefits
• Seamless Liner Guidance: The design allows the flexible flue liner to be pulled down effortlessly, reducing the risk of snagging and damage. This is essential, particularly in installations where time and precision are critical.
• Robust Temperature Resistance: Withstanding temperatures up to 600°C, the nose cone is ideally suited for high-heat applications. This ensures long-lasting durability and safety in your chimney system.
• Multi-Fuel Compatibility: Whether you rely on wood, oil, gas, or smokeless coal, the nose cone integrates smoothly with your system, ensuring versatility and adaptability for various appliance types.
• Standards Compliance: Being CE and HETAS approved, it meets stringent quality and safety standards. This offers not only regulatory compliance but also a high degree of reliability, giving you confidence in your installation.
Installation Process
Proper installation is key to achieving the benefits of the Nose Cone - Ø 150. The accessory should be attached to the leading end of your MI-FLEX flue liner. Once fitted, the liner should be gently pulled through the chimney. It is crucial to install the flue liner within a masonry chimney, as dictated by Building Regulations Document J. Non-masonry enclosures, such as those made from timber or plasterboard, are unsuitable for this system and may compromise safety. Use of appropriate draw cords (which are not supplied) is recommended for easing the liner through the chimney stack. Following these steps carefully will ensure that the installation performs optimally and securely.
Maintenance and Upkeep
Regular maintenance is essential to keep your chimney system operating safely and efficiently. For solid fuel systems, it is advisable to have the chimney swept at least twice a year – once at the end of the heating season, and again at the start of the subsequent season. For other fuel types, an annual cleaning should suffice to prevent the buildup of soot and debris. This routine check not only prolongs the life of the Nose Cone and flue liner but also enhances the overall performance of your heating system. Remember, safety and performance in any heating solution begin with regular, competent maintenance.
Addressing Common Concerns
One common question is whether the Nose Cone - Ø 150 can be installed in non-masonry enclosures. According to Building Regulations, the answer is no; the flue liner must be installed within a masonry chimney to ensure safety and regulatory compliance. Another concern is regarding the absence of draw cords with the nose cone. While the draw cords are not included, they can be easily sourced separately to complement your installation needs. If installation issues arise or if there is uncertainty about compliance with building regulations, professional advice should be sought to ensure everything is done to the required standard.
Accessories and Add-ons
To further enhance your installation, consider exploring the full range of MI-FLEX accessories. These optional components are designed to work in harmony with the Nose Cone - Ø 150 and other flue liner fittings.
