Introduction

When it comes to ensuring a safe and efficient heating system, the quality of every component in your chimney flue system matters. The Sflue (2119406) Adaptor 152mm Ø from National Flues is engineered to provide a robust and secure connection between your appliance outlet and the TLPro chimney system, in addition to linking TLPro with single wall connecting flue pipes. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about this adaptor, its benefits, and how to install it correctly, ensuring that your installation meets safety standards and performs optimally.

Understanding the Sflue Adaptor

The Sflue adaptor is a high-quality component specifically designed to accommodate various solid fuel and gas/oil appliances, including woodstoves, oil and gas boilers, and gas fires. Its construction uses a layered approach with 304-grade stainless steel on the outer skin for robust external protection and 316-grade stainless steel on the inner skin for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. The dual-layer construction ensures longevity even in harsh conditions.

Key Features and Their Benefits

- Premium Material Construction: The combination of 304 and 316-grade stainless steels guarantees durability and resistance to wear and tear, which is critical in high-temperature environments.
- Certified Safety Standards: With HETAS approval and CE marking, the adaptor meets stringent industry standards, assuring you of both quality and reliability.
- Secure Twist-Lock Installation: The innovative 8 barbed twist-lock mechanism offers a secure fit, making installation both simple and reliable. This mechanism minimises the likelihood of improper connections, which are essential for maintaining system integrity.
- Effective Insulation: The compressed rockwool insulation not only bolsters thermal efficiency but also plays a key role in maintaining a safe 50mm distance from combustibles. This feature is particularly important for preventing fire hazards.
- Versatility Across Fuel Types: Whether you’re running a wood-burning stove or a modern gas boiler, the adaptor seamlessly integrates into your setup, providing flexibility and ease of use.

Installation Guidelines

For a safe installation, follow these steps carefully:

1. Preparation: Ensure that all components, including matching flue pipes and any optional accessories, are available and compatible. Verify that there is a minimum of 50mm clearance from any combustible materials as required.
2. Fitting the Adaptor: Utilize the 8 barbed twist-lock couplers to insert the adaptor securely. The design is intended for quick and secure engagement, making it suitable for both DIY installations and professional use.
3. Securing Connections: Use the locking band to fasten the adaptor firmly in place. Double-check all connections for stability.
4. Finishing Touches: Once installed, examine the assembly to confirm that every component is correctly engaged, ensuring optimal performance and safety.
