The EuroSW1 15° Elbow with a diameter of 125mm is an essential component for anyone looking to install a reliable and efficient flue system. Constructed from zero carbon steel, this single skin connecting pipe is designed to withstand temperatures up to 600°C, making it suitable for gas, oil, and solid fuel appliances. This elbow should only be used as a connecting piece between your appliance and the flue liner, chimney stack, or twin wall flue system.
It is crucial to note that the EuroSW1 should not be used to pass through ceilings or combustible walls.For optimal installation, maintain a minimum distance of 375mm from any combustible materials such as wood or plasterboard. Ensure the smaller diameter is facing downward to keep condensates within the system. The friction fit joint system eliminates the need for sealing, though you can add a jointing compound for extra security.
Remember to cover any exposed steel with high-temperature paint to prevent rusting. Proper PPE is recommended during installation.Maintenance is straightforward, especially if you incorporate inspection doors at changes of direction, which is particularly beneficial for solid fuel applications. Regular cleaning and sweeping of the chimney at least once a year is advised for solid fuel appliances.

When installing the EuroSW1 15° Elbow, ensure that the smaller diameter faces downward to keep condensate within the system. Maintain a minimum clearance of 375mm from any combustible materials such as wood or plasterboard, and do not use the component to penetrate ceilings or combustible walls. Although the friction fit design eliminates the need for sealing, you may opt to apply a jointing compound (fire cement or high-temperature silicone) for enhanced joint security. Additionally, cover any exposed steel with high-temperature paint to prevent rust. Appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) should be worn at all times during installation.

The EuroSW1 15° Elbow is a crucial element for creating a safe and efficient flue system. Designed by National Flues, a trusted supplier renowned for quality and reliable delivery, this component is engineered to meet the demands of modern gas, oil, and solid fuel appliances. In this guide, we will explore the features, benefits, installation details, and maintenance tips to help you make an informed decision for your next flue system upgrade.
Why Choose the EuroSW1 15° Elbow?
High Performance at Extreme Temperatures: The EuroSW1 is rated to operate at temperatures up to 600°C, ensuring that your system remains safe and reliable even under the most demanding conditions. Its construction in 316 grade stainless steel provides exceptional resistance to corrosion and long-term durability, making it a smart investment for any flue installation.
Versatility for Multiple Fuel Types: Whether you are using gas, oil, or solid fuel, this product is engineered to adapt to various appliance types. Its compatibility across different systems means fewer worries and more flexibility in your installation design.
Ease of Installation: Featuring a friction fit joint design, the EuroSW1 eliminates the need for extensive sealing procedures. For those who prefer the extra security, adding a jointing compound is an option. This ease of installation not only saves you time but also minimizes the potential for errors during setup.
Key Installation Considerations
When integrating the EuroSW1 into your flue system, adhere to the following guidelines:
Orientation and Clearance
- Ensure that the smaller diameter side is facing downward. This orientation prevents condensate from accumulating in undesired areas.
- Maintain a minimum clearance of 375mm from any combustible materials such as wood or plasterboard. This is essential to reduce the risk of heat transfer and potential fire hazards.
- The component is designed to serve as a connecting piece and should not be used to pass through ceilings or combustible walls.
Installation Best Practices
- Although the friction fit design enables a secure connection without sealing, consider using a high-temperature jointing compound for extra security at critical joints.
- Once installed, cover any exposed steel sections with high-temperature paint to protect against rust and maintain the aesthetic quality of your flue system.
- Using proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) during the installation process is imperative for safety. Gloves, protective eyewear, and appropriate workwear should be standard.
Maintenance and Longevity
Maintaining your flue system is just as important as the initial installation. The EuroSW1 15° Elbow is designed for longevity, but regular maintenance ensures it operates at peak efficiency:
- Regular Inspections: For solid fuel applications, consider incorporating inspection doors at changes of direction. This facilitates easier cleaning and regular checks for any blockages or build-up.
- Annual Sweeping: It is advisable to clean and sweep your chimney at least once a year if you are using solid fuels. This not only extends the life of your flue system but also ensures optimal airflow and performance.
- Timely Repairs: Address any signs of wear, corrosion, or joint failure immediately. Early intervention can save significant costs and prevent potential hazards.
Optional Accessories
To further enhance your flue system, National Flues offers a broad range of optional accessories. These include additional connecting pipes, inspection doors, flue liners, and high-temperature paints specifically designed for use with the EuroSW1. When planning your installation, consider these accessories to complete your setup, improve safety, and bolster the overall efficiency of your system.
