Overview

The Ventilated Firestop Support Kit (WHITE) - Ø 125 is a must-have accessory for anyone serious about maintaining the safety and efficiency of their chimney system. Designed to support a wide range of fuel appliances—from woodstoves and oil boilers to gas and coal effect fires—this kit offers a comprehensive solution for modern chimney installations. Emphasising compliance, durability, and performance, it is both HETAS approved and CE marked, ensuring that your installation isn't just effective but also meets strict regulatory standards.

Key Benefits and Features

Robust Construction: Crafted using 304 grade stainless steel for the external layer and 316 grade stainless steel for the inner layer, both at 0.4mm, this kit is designed to withstand harsh environments and the demands of regular use. The dual-metal construction guarantees longevity and resistance to corrosion, making your investment last for years.

Superior Insulation: The integration of compressed rockwool, with a density of 200kg/m³, ensures that your chimney maintains an optimal thermal barrier. This insulation is vital in preventing heat loss and protecting surrounding materials from heat-related damage.

Easy and Secure Installation: The kit is designed for simplicity and safety. With a straightforward installation process involving a securing Locking Band, even those new to chimney installations can achieve a secure fit. However, professional installation is recommended to ensure all requirements, such as the mandatory 50mm clearance from combustibles, are strictly adhered to.

Versatility: Whether you operate a solid fuel appliance like a woodstove or a gas or oil furnace, this support kit is engineered to cater to diverse heating systems. The system supports a vertical installation of up to 3 metres, making it an excellent choice for a variety of chimney configurations.

Installation Insights

When installing the Ventilated Firestop Support Kit, precision is key. Begin by ensuring that your flue system is correctly aligned with the supporting elements of the kit. Always maintain a 50mm gap between the flue exterior and any combustible materials, such as wood or plasterboard, to ensure safety and compliance with regulations. The inclusion of the Locking Band means that once the chimney parts are correctly positioned, they lock securely into place, reducing the risk of movement or misalignment over time. For those who are unsure, consulting a professional installer is advisable to guarantee that every measure of safety is meticulously observed.
