Flexible flue

Flexible flue – reliable solutions for efficient smoke gas venting

Thanks to its flexible design, corrugated flue pipes can be easily installed in narrow and hard-to-reach areas. They are a modern solution for venting smoke gases from heating appliances such as stoves, wood stove furnaces, and fireplaces. BalkanEnergy.NET offers flue made of stainless steel with diameters ranging from 80mm to 300mm, which are durable and corrosion-resistant.

Why choose a flexible flue?

• Easy Installation – They are very easy to install, even in confined spaces. They can be bent and adapted to the shape of the flue system without the need for special tools or additional components.
• Durability and resistance – Made of high-quality materials like stainless steel, flexible flue pipes are resistant to high temperatures and corrosion. This makes them long-lasting and reliable solutions for all types of heating systems.
• High efficiency – They ensure optimal smoke gas flow, contributing to the more efficient operation of heating appliances. They minimize the risk of blockages and reduce the formation of soot and condensation.
• Suitable for various fuels – Used for gas, pellet, wood, and coal heating systems.

Types of flexible flue

• Single-wall flexible flue – These flue pipes are made of high-quality metals and are suitable for condensing boilers and gas appliances. They are lightweight, flexible, and convenient for installation.
• Double-wall flexible flue – Double-wall models have additional insulation, preventing condensation and ensuring better efficiency in smoke gas venting. They are used for solid fuel and pellet boilers.
• Corrugated flexible flue – The corrugated design allows for easy bending and adaptation to complex smoke venting trajectories. Suitable for areas with limited space.

How to choose the right flexible flue?

When selecting a suitable flexible flue, it is essential to consider several key factors:

• Type of heating appliance – Gas boilers, pellet fireplaces, and wood stove furnaces require different types of flue pipes.
• Flue diameter – It should be compatible with the characteristics of the heating system and the requirements for smoke gas venting.
• Material – Stainless steel provides high resistance, while aluminum flue pipes are lighter and more economical.
• Length and Installation – The optimal length of the flue pipe should be adjusted according to the height of the chimney and the distance from the heating appliance.
