Chimney for a tiled stove

tiled chimneyThe tiled stove is very nice, a pleasant and romantic source of warmth. Usually it is fired with wood, which is a self-renewing raw material. So that it is possible to cleanly burn this or that material in it, a suitable chimney is required. Traditionally, it is said about a well-pulling furnace, without noticing, that the thrust depends primarily on the chimney. The chimney in the suction process pulls out the exhaust gases generated in the combustion chamber of the furnace, by conducting them through the smoke ducts of the tiled stove, and then through your cable. So it is the driving force behind the tiled stove. Different types of tiled stoves place different demands on the chimney. The larger the stove, and thus its heating power, the more extensive must be its combustion chamber, so that it can hold enough fuel material. A correspondingly higher efficiency must also have a building chimney. Because, as a rule, the chimney is already made, it is recommended to design a tiled stove exactly to its dimensions. Even, when we build our own furnace, we should seek the advice of the master of Zdunski. No problem is the execution of a tiled stove in a newly erected building. All you need is, that we will inform the architect developing the project about our intention, and he, for his part, will provide everything, what is necessary, so that our house is equipped with a suitable chimney. For an old house, for which no tiled stove is planned, we should check the suitability of the chimney. The outlet from it must be in the area of free wind flow, so that the wind does not “Lay” on the chimney. For this purpose, the chimney must be 40 cm exceed the ridge of the roof (7 i 2), or the departure from it must be located at 140 cm from the roof. For flat roofs, the chimney must be designed in this way, to meet these conditions for a fictitious roof with a slope of 35° (3 i 4). Local slopes, for example. Slopes, depressions or large groups of trees, etc.. can strongly interfere with the flow of air and, as a result, cause, that the chimney draught is incorrect (5 i 6). You should also familiarize yourself with the various legal provisions. A competent chimney sweep master can give us specific information. The technical data attached to the heating inserts for tiled stoves are also given by, what must be the minimum value of draught in the chimney, to which this cartridge is to be connected.

ChimneysWhen using building kits for foundation furnaces, such chimney data as active height (distance from the floor of the combustion chamber of the tiled stove to the upper edge of the chimney), cross-section, material, insulation and ventilation are determined on the basis of the actual state, then the furnace is calculated in order to match the parameters of the chimney and in the final stage built. The illustrations next to it show chimney fittings with one and two strings. The chimney consists of an outer shell, in which rear ventilation windows are already made. In it is placed insulation surrounding the exhaust pipe made of fireclay fittings. In new houses, chimneys are usually built according to this scheme, but equipped with two strings (separate lines for central heating and tiled stove).
