Put a chimney in your own hands

Wooden houses - as we ourselves made a smoke pipe

When building our wooden house, it was decided to build a brick pipe. It was calmer from the point of view of fire safety and, as it seemed to us, easier at construction. In fact, it was easier to make a pipe from the carcass, since the open fire in the house was not planned. Frame houses are usually trying to build from lightweight structures.

A modern gas boiler can emit low-temperature gases in plastic pipes. So we overpaid. After all, for a heavy brick pipe, a foundation is needed, and the work is not cheap.

So, for the part of the pipe which is located in the underground and stands on the foundation, we chose a red full brick. And that part which in the house and above we make from a silica brick.

Channels located in a warm room may not heat (except for the flue channel), those located above the floor of the 2nd floor are insulated with mineral wool. For fire protection of wooden houses, the smoke canal is located in the center of the pipe, and is insulated with mineral wool. By norms, it is located 380 mm from the interior of the flue channel to the wooden elements.
