Detailed Features and Their Benefits
The damper’s robust design is paired with practical features that enhance its functionality:
- Zero Carbon Steel Construction: The steel used is not only resilient but also designed to withstand high temperatures, making it suitable for a range of heating appliances including gas, oil, and solid fuel systems.

Installation Considerations
Installing a new flue system component may prompt several questions, especially for first-time users. Here are some essential tips to ensure a successful installation:
- Correct Orientation: It is vital to install the damper so that the smaller diameter end points downwards. This orientation is crucial as it helps keep all condensates within the system, preserving the damper’s function and longevity.
- Distance from Combustibles: A minimum distance of 375mm must be maintained from all combustible materials. This is particularly important when the damper is integrated into systems servicing devices like wood-burning stoves or fireplaces.

- Regular Maintenance: Especially for solid fuel appliances, regular inspections are recommended. Installing access doors at directional changes within your flue can facilitate easy cleaning and maintenance.
