The VIT-Smooth Elbow with Door 45°/135° - 200mm is designed to provide seamless connectivity in your flue system. This high-quality elbow is crafted from zero carbon steel and features a durable powder vitreous enamel coating in a sophisticated matt black finish. It is suitable for gas, oil, and solid fuel appliances with temperatures up to 600°C, making it versatile and efficient.
It is important to note that VIT-Smooth is intended solely as a connecting pipe between your appliance and the Flue Liner, Chimney Stack, or Twin Wall Flue System, and should never be used to pass through ceilings or combustible walls. Installation is straightforward; however, ensure a clearance of at least 375mm from combustible materials. The VIT-Smooth design includes friction-fit joints, negating the need for seals, although jointing compounds can be added for extra security.
Each piece can be cut to size, but exposed steel should be protected with high-temperature paint to prevent rusting. Regular inspection and cleaning are essential, particularly for solid fuel applications, which can be conveniently carried out through the access door.

Essential Benefits and Features
The VIT-Smooth Elbow is not just another connecting piece in your flue system – it is a meticulously designed component intended to offer a host of advantages:
• Robust Performance: Manufactured from zero carbon steel, this elbow withstands temperatures up to 600°C, ensuring it performs reliably under extreme conditions.

Installation Guidelines and Warnings
Proper installation is critical to the performance and safety of your flue system. Here are several key points to consider during setup:
• Clearance Requirements: Always ensure that the component is installed with a minimum clearance of 375mm from any combustible materials. This is vital in preventing potential fire hazards.
• Orientation is Crucial: The design of the VIT-Smooth Elbow is such that the smaller diameter end should face downwards. This orientation is essential for managing condensate and ensuring optimal function.
• Friction-Fit Joints: With its innovative friction-fit design, there is no immediate need for sealing. However, for enhanced security, particularly in high-vibration environments, applying fire cement or high-temperature silicone sealant is advisable.
• Handling Cut Edges: If you need to custom-fit the component by cutting it to the necessary length, make sure that any steel edges exposed are treated with high-temperature paint to ward off rust and corrosion.
Follow the manufacturer’s installation manual and local regulations to ensure a seamless and compliant setup. Incorrect installation can not only compromise the performance but also affect the longevity of the flue system.
Maintenance and Safety Considerations
Regular maintenance of your flue system is key to preventing issues and ensuring a long service life. The VIT-Smooth Elbow has been designed with maintenance convenience in mind:
• Easy Access for Cleaning: The access door provided within the design allows you to inspect and clear out any soot or debris that may accumulate over time, particularly in solid fuel applications.
• Routine Inspections: It is advisable to perform yearly inspections of your entire flue system. Early detection of any wear or potential problems can significantly reduce repair costs and improve safety.
• High-Temperature Protection: Ensure that all parts, especially those that have been cut, are adequately protected with high-temperature paint. This reduces the risk of rusting and prolongs the life of the component.
Maintaining the integrity of your flue system not only enhances performance but also mitigates risks associated with poorly maintained installations. Regular cleaning and inspection help in avoiding blockages and ensuring that your chimney is functioning at its best.
Optional Accessories to Enhance Your System
While the VIT-Smooth Elbow is a complete solution in itself, there are optional accessories available that can further optimise your flue system. These may include additional sealing compounds, high-temperature paints for protection, and extended inspection tools that complement the ease of access provided by the integrated door.
Exploring these accessories can help tailor your installation to specific requirements, ensuring a custom-fit approach that maximises both efficiency and safety. Using compatible add-ons from National Flues guarantees that each element of your flue system works harmoniously, delivering peak performance even in challenging conditions.
