Choosing materials for the chimney
The video lesson tells the existing chimney schemes
The choice of materials for the chimneine canal mainly depends on the type of fuel on which the heat generator works. The stoves and fireplaces have long been on solid fuel. It has a low efficiency of useful action, and, as a result, the diverted gases are very heated. Their temperature can be 600 ° C and even more. Therefore, traditionally smoke pipes are made of complete brick. Nowadays, he can be a design of ceramics and heat -resistant steels an alternative to him. The heat resistance and corrosion resistance of modern materials is favorably different from the operational properties of bricks, but their cost is higher.
