Manufactured by National Flues, a leader in chimney and flue technology, this product merges durability with aesthetics thanks to its robust zero carbon steel construction and elegant matte black vitreous enamel finish. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore the features, installation best practices, and benefits of choosing the VIT-Smooth system, while addressing common concerns and questions.
Product Overview
The VIT-Smooth pipe is engineered to deliver performance in high-temperature scenarios, with the capability to withstand temperatures up to 600°C. Designed specifically for appliances that operate under rigorous conditions, this flue pipe offers a reliable conduit for exhaust and combustion by-products from your heating appliance. Its integrated access door ensures that cleaning and inspection tasks remain straightforward, a crucial requirement for regular maintenance, especially in solid fuel applications.
Key Product Features
- High-Temperature Resilience: Engineered for use in high-performance scenarios, the VIT-Smooth pipe remains dependable even when exposed to extreme heat.
- Robust Construction: The use of zero carbon steel not only ensures longevity but also guarantees that the unit can withstand the rigours of regular use.
- Aesthetically Pleasing Finish: The matte black vitreous enamel finish provides an attractive appearance while protecting the metal surface from corrosion and wear.
- User-Friendly Maintenance: The built-in access door is strategically designed to simplify routine inspections and cleaning, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

Installation Guide
Preparing for Installation
Before beginning the installation, ensure you have read and understood all safety precautions and installation guidelines provided. Gather all necessary tools and ensure that you are working with the correct safety equipment (PPE). Inspect the pipe to confirm that it is free from any transport damage and that the access door is operational.
Step-by-Step Installation
1. Orientation: Place the pipe with the smaller diameter directed downward. This positioning is crucial as it helps in retaining condensates within the pipe, thus preventing blockages or liquid build-up.
2. Connecting the Pipe: Fit the pipe into your flue liner, chimney stack, or twin wall flue system using the friction fit joint. While a sealant is not mandatory, applying a high-temperature silicone sealant or fire cement can provide additional security to the connection.
3. Securing Exposed Areas: If the pipe needs to be cut to size, remember to cover any freshly cut steel with high-temperature paint to combat rusting. Ensure there is a clearance of at least 375mm from any combustible materials, such as wood or plasterboard, to comply with safety standards.
Safety Precautions
- Always wear the appropriate PPE including gloves and eye protection during installation.
- Verify that all components are installed at the correct orientation, especially the section with the access door, as this is essential for ongoing maintenance.
- Do not attempt to route the pipe through ceilings or combustible walls, as this can significantly reduce safety.
