How the Thermocrete chimney lining system works.

The basic concept of the system is simple but extremely effective. A rubber former is inserted precisely in position through the entire length of the flue .Special techniques are used to keep the former centralised, even if the flue has a 45° bend. Thermocrete B2 material is pumped into the flue from the top of the chimney stack filling all voids, cracks and damaged joints. When the Thermocrete has hardened, the former is deflated and removed leaving a perfectly smooth cylindrical flue.

All Theromcrete linings are installed to: B.S.6461 complying to the building regulations 1985 England and Wales and the building standards for Scotland 1981 to 1984.

Each Flue is isolated

The Thermocrete System allows each appliance to operate with its own correct size flue within one chimney stack. This is essential in instances where appliances use different types of fuel.
