The EuroSW1 Damper Unit Ø 125mm is essential for managing the flow of flue gases from gas, oil, and solid fuel appliances operating at temperatures up to 600°C. This single-skin connecting flue, crafted from zero carbon steel, is designed exclusively for use between your appliance and flue liner, chimney stack, or twin wall flue system. Note that it should not be utilized to pass through ceilings or combustible walls.Precision is key to the EuroSW1's construction.
To ensure safety and efficiency, it must be positioned at least 375mm away from combustible materials like wood or plasterboard. Installation is straightforward—ensure the smaller diameter faces downward to keep condensates within the system. While the friction fit joint doesn't necessitate sealing, you can apply jointing compounds for added security.Maintenance is crucial for performance, particularly for solid fuel applications.
Incorporate access doors at direction changes for hassle-free inspections and cleanings. Solid fuel chimney systems should be swept and maintained at least annually, more frequently if necessary.

In this guide, we will explain its features, installation process, and the benefits of choosing this high-quality flue accessory from National Flues.
Key Features and Benefits
Precision Engineering: The EuroSW1 is meticulously crafted from 316 grade stainless steel, ensuring longevity and excellent performance even under high temperatures up to 600°C. The continuous welded seam reduces the risk of leaks and maintains the integrity of the flue system throughout its operational life.

Easy Installation with Safety in Mind: The friction fit joint ensures a secure, straightforward installation process, minimizing the need for extensive sealing measures. Even though the jointing process is simplified, adherence to a minimum 375mm clearance from combustible materials like wood or plasterboard is essential for safety reasons.
Robust and Reliable: The high-grade materials and precision construction not only provide durability against extreme temperatures but also ensure efficient performance in regulating flue gas flow. This contributes directly to better draft control and overall appliance efficiency.
Installation and Maintenance
Installation Guidelines
Installing the EuroSW1 Damper Unit requires attention to detail to maintain safety and system performance. The damper unit should be installed with the smaller diameter facing downward. This orientation helps in retaining condensates within the system, which is especially important for solid fuel appliances. It is critical to maintain a safe distance of no less than 375mm from any combustible materials. While the friction fit joint is engineered for a secure connection, you may opt to use a jointing compound for added assurance. Follow the manufacturer’s detailed installation instructions to ensure correct positioning and optimal performance.
Maintenance Recommendations
Regular maintenance is key to prolonging the life of your damper unit and ensuring safe operation. Especially in systems that employ solid fuels, periodic cleaning is essential. Incorporate access doors at directional changes in your flue design to facilitate easier cleaning and inspections. Annual sweepings are recommended, though more frequent maintenance might be necessary depending on the intensity of use. Maintaining clear and unobstructed flue passages not only improves efficiency but also significantly enhances safety.
