In the upper side of the flue chimney cap must be installed to avoid the gathering of materials and rain
water.
•
If the chimney is not as tall as the house or if it is installed on an outside wall, so the air in the chimney is
cold, the house may "draw" better than the chimney. When possible, install chimneys inside the exterior
walls of the house and build them taller than the highest part of the house (Fig. 5).
•
The height of the chimney is one of the basic factors for a perfect installation. Obviously, a taller
chimney is better because it provides a greater accumulated pressure differential due to the taller
column of warm air inside the flue.

During the installation of the flue, any obstruction like
corners, chokes or sections, etc. must be completely
avoided (Fig. 7). If the flue construction can’t be
straight then, the curved part (Fig. 8) of the flue
should be at a maximum angle of 45
