Hi everyone
My friends are building their new home and I would like to get your opinions on the most appropriate flue system.
The house is a dormer type and will be heated primarily by two multi-fuel stoves fitted back to back on an internal wall. One stove includes a boiler with a flue outlet of 125mm dia. The chimney is straight and approximately 5 metres high. The preferred stove is a stand alone unit with top outlet. The rooms housing the stoves are quite small as well so floor space is limited.
Clay liners, flexible steel liners and pumice blocks are being considered but I'm not sure which would provide the optimum solution for solid fuel multi-fuel applications.
I would be grateful if you could share your recommendations in terms of performance & cost. In light of space restrictions, some advice on integrating a practical cleaning solution would be appreciated as well.
Thanks for reading and any tips you can share.
