woodburner flue

[maggoo]

hi all, i want to put a woodburner in my conservertory, but it has a plastic roof, is there some kind of liner i can put around the flue so it dos'nt melt or damage the roof.

cheers.

Strange request? the roof section where it exits will need replacing with heat resistant roofing, though you could go out thru a wall with a dog leg chimney.

What type of plastic roof, is it twinwall polycarbonate sheet

Is it a lean-to type or a pitch roof

Okay, give me time to find the paper work from the supplier, done mine about 5yrs ago, will need a twinwall insulated stainless steel pipe and a roof cowling which doesn't touch the pipe with a storm collar over it to keep the rain off. The idea of the twinwall insulated pipe is so that the outer pipe doesn't get too hot.

There you go http://www.fluesystems.com/

I've faxed them with a drawing of the roof including pitch degree angle etc ( the more details on the drawing the better including height from floor level etc) then they told me what I need. You will also need to know the dia of the flue collar of the stove that you're interested in before ordering, the twinwall insulated stainless steel pipe won't be cheap but last almost forever
