The powder vitreous enamel gloss black finish not only provides an eye-catching aesthetic but also confers robust protection against corrosion.

2. Aesthetic Appeal:
• The stunning gloss black finish enhances the overall look of your heating system. This modern finish not only adds style but also increases resistance to corrosion, ensuring longevity.
3. Easy Installation and Maintenance:
• With friction fit joints, installation is straightforward and time-saving. The access door is designed to facilitate easy inspections and cleaning, making regular maintenance a simple task. For those who prefer an extra layer of security, the option to use high-temperature silicone sealant or jointing compound is available.
4. Versatility:

Addressing Common Objections
Installation Concerns:
Some installers may worry about the potential difficulties of working with friction fit joints. However, these have been designed to make the assembly process easier and quicker. The optional use of high-temperature silicone or jointing compounds further enhances the security of the installation, ensuring that even those requiring additional assurances will be satisfied with the setup.
Maintenance Worries:
A common concern with heating system components is the ease of maintenance. The VIT-Smooth GLOSS incorporates an access door specifically to address this issue. This design feature allows for simple and routine inspections, ensuring your chimney remains free from blockages and potential safety hazards.
Compatibility Issues:
When considering any new product, compatibility with existing systems is important. The VIT-Smooth GLOSS is crafted with industry-standard dimensions and connections, meaning it is readily compatible with a wide range of fuel appliances and flue systems. If you are uncertain about compatibility, you can easily reach out to our expert team for advice, ensuring that your installation meets all safety and performance criteria.
Optional Accessories for Enhanced Performance
While the elbow itself features friction fit joints that do not require sealants, for those who desire extra security, high-temperature silicone sealants and jointing compounds are available as optional accessories. These components can provide additional reassurance where the installation environment may demand extra measures against vibration or thermal expansion. Exploring these accessories can help optimise the overall integrity of your heating system.
Installation and Safety Tips
During the installation process, always ensure that the smaller diameter end is oriented downwards to help manage condensates effectively. Never use the VIT-Smooth GLOSS to pass through ceilings or combustible walls, as this could compromise safety and performance. It is also important to note that when modifications are necessary, such as cutting the pipe, you should cover any exposed steel with high-temperature paint to prevent corrosion over time.

Investing in the right components for your heating system is critical. The VIT-Smooth GLOSS 90° Elbow with Door not only meets but exceeds industry standards for performance and aesthetic appeal. It offers peace of mind by combining robust materials, innovative design, and user-friendly features that simplify both installation and maintenance.
