The Connecting Pipe Starter Length 500mm Ø 150 from National Flues is an essential component for any modern chimney installation. Designed to be robust and reliable, this connecting pipe offers outstanding performance whether used with woodstoves, gas, oil, or low sulphur coal appliances. With a combination of premium materials and expert engineering, this product is built to the highest safety and quality standards.
Key Benefits and Features
Durability: The outer skin is crafted from 304 grade stainless steel, while the inner skin uses 316 grade stainless steel, both at a thickness of 0.40mm. This dual-layer construction ensures that the pipe not only resists corrosion but is also capable of withstanding high temperatures over prolonged periods.
Thermal Efficiency: Incorporating compressed rockwool insulation with a density of 200kg/m³, the Connecting Pipe Starter delivers excellent thermal efficiency. This means that your chimney system is optimised to maintain temperature regulation, thereby reducing heat loss and enhancing overall appliance performance.
Safety Compliant: With HETAS approval and CE marking, every element of this product meets stringent UK safety standards. The pipe is designed to maintain a 50mm distance from combustible materials, offering an extra layer of security.
Flexible Installation: One of the standout features is the rebated slip joint at the base, which allows for up to 200mm of adjustment. This flexibility is particularly useful during pre-installation and when adjustments are required without having to disturb the entire chimney setup.
Understanding the Materials and Construction
The Connecting Pipe Starter is built with meticulous attention to detail. The use of two types of stainless steel ensures that the product can handle the rigours of various combustion processes while providing a long-lasting service life. The fully welded design not only enhances structural integrity but also streamlines the installation process by reducing assembly time and potential error points.
Installation Process
Before beginning the installation, ensure that you have all the necessary equipment and that the area around the chimney is clear of any combustible materials. Follow these steps for a secure installation:
- Step 1: Verify that the site complies with the 50mm safety distance requirement from all combustible surfaces.
- Step 2: Assemble the TWPro Twin Wall Insulated Chimney system and prepare the Locking Band mechanism as per the manufacturer's instructions.
- Step 3: Gently slide the connecting pipe into the designated position. The rebated slip joint design allows for an adjustable fit, ensuring that the pipe can be aligned perfectly within the system.
- Step 4: Secure the pipe firmly using the Locking Band, checking that every joint is properly welded and secured to prevent any safety breaches.
- Step 5: Double-check all installations against the local building codes and safety regulations.
