FuranFlex Chimney Liners
Introduction to FuranFlex®
FuranFlex® is a revolutionary chimney lining system which uses a glass fibre reinforced thermosetting resin to line chimneys.
Applications of FuranFlex®…
Listed Buildings and Open Fires
It is most commonly used in listed buildings to bring large open fires back into use without having to alter the size of the fire opening or install chimney fans.
Chemical Cabinet Ducts
It is also used to reline chemical cabinet ducts, avoiding the need to open up walls to replace ductwork.
Maximizing Chimney Efficiency
FuranFlex® can also be used to line existing chimneys to maximise the cross sectional area of the chimney and allow condensing and high efficiency appliances to be fitted.
Versatility in Chimney Systems
It can also be used on positive pressure chimneys and to line Inglenook fireplaces where it might not be possible for the chimney characteristics to be altered.
Resolving Challenges with FuranFlex®
A1 Flue Systems offer a full range of lining solutions and investigatory works for ducts and chimneys including CCTV surveys, plotting of chimneys/ducts, pressure testing (manual and mechanical) and smoke testing.
Many problems have been resolved with the FuranFlex® System, from condensates seeping through walls, to ensuring cross sectional areas being maintained to ensure safe and efficient draught on ducts and chimneys.
The FuranFlex Lining System is a glass fibre reinforced thermosetting resin, ideal for use in chimneys (condensing and dry) for all fuels, SE and U ducts, ventilation ducts, kitchen extract ducts, rain water pipes and drains.
FuranFlex will mould to the shape of the existing chimney or duct and as it is only 2.5mm thick therefore not substantially reducing the cross sectional area of the chimney or duct.
FuranFlex is also 100% condensate proof, FuranFlex has been widely used in 27 European countries for the last 10 years, with over 2 million metres installed.
FuranFlex has been installed over 4000 metres in sizes ranging from 50mm diameter to 1000mm diameter and in lengths from 5 metres to 100 metres.
Most installations are complete in one day with minimal disruption and are ready to use when we leave the site.
FuranFlex® has been used in the UK and Europe for:
- chemical cabinet ducts
- chemical ducts
- ventilation ducts
- smoke ducts
- fire proofing ducts
- condensing boiler chimneys (oil and gas)
- solid fuel chimneys, including inglenook chimneys
Features and Benefits:
Totally gas and watertight, and guaranteed to be corrosion-resistant for 25 years, it has a projected lifespan that is well more than 100 years.
