The VIT-Smooth Adaptor (Vit-Smooth to Traditional) Ø 100mm is a versatile and robust solution designed to seamlessly connect modern Vit-Smooth flue pipes to traditional chimney stacks or twin-wall flue systems. Manufactured from zero carbon steel and finished with a high-quality powder vitreous enamel coating in matt black, this adaptor is suitable for gas, oil, and solid fuel appliances operating at temperatures up to 600°C. Note that the VIT-Smooth Adaptor is exclusively for use as a connecting pipe and should not be passed through ceilings or combustible walls.
Ensure a minimum distance of 375mm is kept from any combustible materials during installation. The VIT-Smooth system employs a friction fit joint, eliminating the necessity for sealing, though jointing compounds such as fire cement or high-temperature silicone sealant can be used for added security. The pipe can be cut to size, with exposed steel requiring a protective coat of high-temperature paint to prevent rust.
To maintain optimal performance, regular inspection and cleaning, especially in solid fuel applications, is recommended.

Read our buyers guide for this VIT-Smooth - Adaptor (Vit-Smooth to Traditional) - Ø 100mm
Introduction to the VIT-Smooth Adaptor
The VIT-Smooth Adaptor is expertly designed to connect modern Vit-Smooth flue systems to traditional chimney stacks or twin-wall flue systems seamlessly. This guide provides comprehensive information about the adaptor, its features, and the benefits it delivers, ensuring that you make an informed decision about your chimney installation or upgrade.
Key Features and Benefits
Robust Construction: The adaptor is made from zero carbon steel, offering superior durability and longevity. This is crucial for high-temperature applications where safety and performance are paramount. The use of high-quality materials reduces maintenance and ensures reliable performance over time.
High Temperature Resistance: Capable of withstanding temperatures up to 600°C, this adaptor is suitable for gas, oil, and solid fuel appliances. Its ability to resist high temperatures safeguards your installation even under extreme operating conditions, giving you peace of mind.
Protective Coating: The matt black powder enamel not only adds to the aesthetic appeal but also provides an extra layer of protection against rust and environmental wear. This coating ensures that the adaptor remains in top condition, even in demanding environments.
Friction Fit Design: This innovative design allows for a secure, leak-resistant connection without the need for additional sealing. While optional jointing compounds can be used to enhance security, the friction fit alone delivers a reliable, long-lasting connection.
Custom Sizing Flexibility: One of the standout benefits of the adaptor is its ability to be cut to size. This ensures that your installation is perfectly tailored to your specific chimney configuration, optimising performance and safety.
Addressing Common Concerns
Installation Safety: It is essential to install the VIT-Smooth Adaptor correctly. The adaptor must be installed with the correct orientation – ensure that the smaller diameter end points downward to avoid condensate build-up. Additionally, it should not be used for passing through ceilings or combustible walls. Maintaining a minimum clearance of 375mm from any combustible materials is non-negotiable for safe operation.
Durability and Longevity: Crafted from high-grade materials, this adaptor is built to last. Its robust construction and protective coating mean that you can expect years of reliable performance, reducing the need for frequent replacements or repairs.
Versatility for Fuel Types: Whether you run a gas, oil, or solid fuel appliance, this adaptor is engineered to meet your needs. Its high temperature tolerance ensures that it remains effective regardless of the fuel type, making it a versatile addition to your chimney system.
Ease of Maintenance: Regular inspection and cleaning are recommended, especially for setups utilising solid fuel appliances. The VIT-Smooth system is designed with maintenance in mind, so you can access critical components easily as needed.
How to Install the VIT-Smooth Adaptor
1. Preparation: Begin by reviewing all safety guidelines and ensuring that you have the necessary tools and safety equipment. Familiarise yourself with the minimum distance requirement of 375mm from any combustible materials.
2. Positioning: Align the adaptor so that the smaller diameter end is directed downward. This setup is crucial for managing condensate accumulation effectively.
3. Connection: Employ the friction fit joint method to join the adaptor securely to both the Vit-Smooth pipe and the traditional chimney or twin-wall system. Although the connection is self-sealing, applying a high-temperature silicone sealant or fire cement can offer added security if required.
4. Customization: If modifications are necessary, carefully cut the adaptor to size. It is critical that any exposed steel is immediately treated with a high-temperature protective paint to prevent rusting.
