Comprehensive Buyers Guide for the Sflue Black Ventilated Ceiling Support
When it comes to chimney installations, safety and reliability are of paramount importance. The Sflue Black Ventilated Ceiling Support offers an expertly engineered solution designed to secure and firestop your chimney system as it passes through the first combustible floor above your appliance. In this guide, we will discuss the product features, installation process, potential concerns, and accessory options that may suit your specific requirements.
Product Overview
The Sflue Black Ventilated Ceiling Support is specifically engineered for a variety of heating appliances including woodstoves, gas coal effect fires, and boilers. Crafted with high-grade 304 and 316 stainless steel, this product is built to withstand harsh conditions while maintaining optimal performance and safety. Its unique ventilated design ensures that the component remains cool under operational strain, thereby enhancing the longevity of your chimney system. The integration of a patented intumescent matrix means that, in the event of high temperatures, the support rapidly expands to create an effective seal, preventing the spread of fire or smoke.
Key Features and Benefits
One of the standout elements of this product is its robust construction. The use of durable stainless steel components not only provides structural integrity but also ensures that the product remains resistant to corrosion and thermal stress. Reviewers have consistently noted the reliability of its 8-barbed twist lock mechanism, which simplifies the installation process while ensuring a secure fit. This mechanism is further enhanced by a locking band that confirms stability after installation. The high-density rockwool insulation included in the system plays a critical role in thermal regulation, offering an added layer of protection between the chimney and combustible materials.
The Sflue Black Ventilated Ceiling Support has been designed to comply with stringent safety standards, being both HETAS approved and CE marked. These certifications provide peace of mind that the product meets rigorous industry benchmarks for fire safety and performance. Furthermore, with a warranty covering manufacturing defects for 15 years and paint for 2 years, customers can be confident in their investment and the longevity of the support system.
Installation Guidelines
Proper installation is essential for ensuring the maximum performance of your chimney support system. Before commencing installation, it is vital to review the accompanying installation manual carefully. The process is straightforward, involving the following steps:
• Verify that the ceiling and surrounding materials are free of any potential obstructions or contaminants.
• Ensure that a clearance of at least 50mm is maintained from any combustible surfaces.
• Utilize the 8-barbed twist lock mechanism to position the support securely in place, and fasten it with the locking band provided.
• Confirm that all welding points are fully laser welded to guarantee a solid and lasting joint.
It is also recommended to seek professional assistance if you are unfamiliar with installation procedures, as incorrect installation can compromise both the safety and effectiveness of the chimney system.

Additionally, the clear marking of approval and adherence to safety distances from combustibles addresses any concerns related to installation standards and fire safety.
