County Fires can help you with all flue types
Flue information should be used as a guide only. A professional fireplace survey is recommended prior to purchase/installation.
Chimney - Class 1
The conventional brick chimney - clearly defined by a chimney stack and pot on the roof of a property.
Pre-cast - Class 2
Hollow concrete flue blocks create a flue up through the property usually terminating with a ridge vent on the roof.
Pre-fabricated - Class 2
A metal flue box situated behind the fire connects to a series of metal flue pipes run up through the house terminating with a pipe and terminal through the roof.
Power flue
Where no chimney or flue is available. A quiet but powerful fan situated on an outside wall expels the flue gases from the fire. Mains electricity required.
Balanced flue
Where no chimney or flue is available. The fire vents directly outside through a horizontal twin wall pipe. These fires are glass fronted. No mains electricity is required.
