Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

How to install a chimney

The chimney is the structure to vent hot flue gases and smoke from stove, boiler, furnace and fireplace to any outside atmosphere. Usually vertical chimney for gas flow smoothly pull air in combustion . The space inside a chimney is called smoke . Chimneys can be found in buildings , steam locomotives and ships in the United States.

Function Chimney:

The function of the chimney is to increase the draw of air , for combustion and to disperse pollutants in the flue gas in a larger area , thereby reducing the concentration of pollutants in accordance with regulatory or other constraints .

Construction:

Industrial chimneys are often referred to as flue gas stacks and usually external structure, as opposed to being built into the walls of the building. They are generally located adjacent to a boiler that produces or industrial furnaces and gas is made to the ductwork. When installing the chimney flashing system there're a lot of different methods to flash the chimney. Chimneys are most common source of leak in housing roofing industry. Chimney leak areas commonly are caused by a lot of things, and one way is ponding water in an area behind chimney that is also prone to some serious leaks because of non-moving aspect of water. Flashing leaks that generally are at seams at chimney sides are totally leak concerns. Finally ice dams, whenever ice and snow is stuck behind your chimneys, leak will take place.

One method to keep your chimneys totally free from the leakage is installing chimney cricket. The chimney crickets will make good sense, as they divert water, as well as keep water to flow around your chimneys instead water flowing through chimneys causing some major water damage. Thus, installing chimney crickets will reduce the ponding issues, decrease ponding of water behind your chimney itself. They will reduce the ice back-up; and crickets keep ice from building behind the chimneys. They as well deflect the water away from the seams, rightly installed chimney crickets will keep water that is flowing away from chimney seam.

The chimney crickets are required on all the roofs steeper to handle the volume of water on a roof. Making chimney crickets is the tedious job. They're made from metal or wood. The wood crickets are simple to manufacture, are accessible on site, and finish with the shingles to match your roof. The metal crickets are all custom made and use non-corroding metal that is needed. They also conform to the lower slope roofs, need no finishing as well as are simple to install. The cricket sizes vary depending what size of roof that you're working at. They will extend from 6 inch up on chimney back at the minimum, for handling volume and splash of the water exposure. They also will extend over 12" up roof plane in order to create the wide water diverter. Seal to chimney sides up the walls and seal off water infiltration.
