Introduction
When it comes to protecting and optimising the performance of your chimney, selecting the right insulation is paramount. The Rockwool Tube - 150mm x 1000mm from National Flues is engineered with precision to meet the highest standards of thermal efficiency and safety. Designed using high-quality, non-combustible rock wool, this product not only provides excellent insulation but also combats the risk of condensation, mould, and bacterial growth within your flue liner. Whether you are upgrading an existing chimney or planning a new installation, this insulation solution is built to perform under the most challenging conditions.
Unmatched Quality and Durability
The foundation of a great chimney insulation system lies in its ability to withstand extreme environmental conditions. Our Rockwool Tube is manufactured from robust rock wool that is inherently non-combustible, ensuring that it remains safe even at operating temperatures up to 500°C. This high level of thermal resistance is essential for minimizing energy loss and preventing the deterioration of your chimney over time. Moreover, the 25mm insulation thickness not only provides an effective barrier against heat loss but also reinforces structural integrity, making it a reliable and low-maintenance solution for your home or business premises.
Key Benefits and Features
Investing in the Rockwool Tube means investing in peace of mind. Here are some of the key benefits you can expect:
• High thermal resistance helps maintain consistent flue temperatures, reducing the risk of condensation.
• The durable design prevents the growth of mould, fungi, and bacteria, creating a healthier environment.
• Flexible sizing options allow the product to adapt to different chimney liner sizes including 125mm, 150mm, and 200mm liners, with the option to trim for a 7 inch fit.
• Enhanced resistance to vermin and pests further safeguards the integrity of your chimney system.
• Easy installation ensures a secure and long-lasting setup, with minimal maintenance required after successful application.
Installation Guidance
Proper installation is key to achieving the maximum performance from your Rockwool Tube. The recommended method is to secure each 1m section of the tube to the flue liner using a high-grade self-adhesive foil tape. For added security and longevity, it is advised to reinforce each joint with 50mm wide aluminium tape. This dual-tape system provides extra strength, ensuring that the insulation remains in place even under severe weather conditions. It is important to note that while this product performs exceptionally well with rigid liners, it is not suitable for Class 2 flexible liners which are typically used for gas or oil applications.
Addressing Common Concerns
Many customers have queries regarding the practical application and long-term performance of chimney insulation. One common concern is the complexity of the installation process. Rest assured, the Rockwool Tube comes with clear, concise instructions that make it accessible to both seasoned installers and DIY enthusiasts. Even if you have limited experience with chimney installations, the straightforward tape application method simplifies the process considerably.
Another frequent question relates to maintenance: once installed correctly, the Rockwool Tube requires little to no ongoing maintenance. Its intrinsic properties help it to resist degradation, ensuring that your chimney remains well insulated for years to come. Additionally, the product's adaptability to different chimney sizes means that regardless of your installation requirements, there is a tailored solution to meet your needs. The assurance of durability and low maintenance costs can translate into significant long-term savings, making this product a smart investment for homeowners and professionals alike.
Product Care and Maintenance
While the Rockwool Tube is designed for longevity, regular inspections can help maintain its effectiveness. It is advisable to periodically check the seams and joints secured by the self-adhesive foil and aluminium tapes for any signs of wear or loss of adhesion. In the event that any sections are found to be compromised, prompt repair or replacement can prevent larger issues from developing. A simple, proactive maintenance routine will not only extend the life of your insulation but also ensure that your chimney continues operating safely and efficiently.
