Check Flue Soundness
A smoke pellet can be used to test the flue for effectiveness of the draw, also checking
other parts of the dwelling (including loft areas) for leakage, down-draught etc.
If the flue is unsatisfactory seek advice from a flue specialist.
NOTE – The smoke pellet gives a fair idea on the draw, but is no guarantee that the
products of combustion from the fire unit will clear, this is also to be tested after the
installation by carrying a spillage test.
