Flue Lining & Fan Installation

Every working fireplace, whether using solid fuel or a gas fire is required to have a functioning flue in good condition. To ensure that your fire has a good draw the chimney many need to be lined and or a fan installed. The Buckley team are certified in the proper installation of flue liners in single and multi storey properties. A proper working flue is essential so that noxious fumes can escape up the chimney and not find their way back into the building through gaps or leaks.

Buckley's can test your chimney this involves introducing smoke into the chimney. The flue run is checked to ensure no smoke has leaked into any part of the building or adjoining flues. If the flue is breached, i.e. there is a leak or a gap in the chimney which cannot be repaired, it is then necessary to line the flue.

The cost of this process depends on the length and diameter of liner and any scaffolding requirements. Lining is the safest solution to ensure a fully functional flue.

A Twinwall Flue System is a flue that can be installed to allow the installation of a fire if there is no existing flue or chimney. It is often used when a property has been extended. If the installation includes a horizontal termination, for example under a roof line or out of a side wall, a mechanical draw may be required. The mechanical fan will efficiently draw smoke/fumes irrespective of chimney placing, dimensions or height.
