YourAverageJoe · 2009-04-17 19:02:05

Hi, Am building a traditional blockwork house and ma trying to decide on the chimney. Should i build a traditional block chimney or perhaps use a system such as schiedel. Anyone have any thoughts? Going to use a room sealed stove.

If room sealed u need external air intake.

there are issues around pressure differentials caused by wind across the house causing a down-draft in chimney back out the external duct.

The first image shows the air-intake beside the chimney pot, the other shows the 'inners' the dermic flue is not shown, it fits inside the insulation
