Building Regulations dictate that the minimum flue diameter for stoves up to 20kW burning smokeless fuel should be a minimum 5inch / 125mm diameter. We strongly recommend that you do use a chimney flue liner with your stove. This is because chimney flue liners provide a number of benefits such as improving the efficiency of your stove, preventing chimney fires, preventing the build of creosote, and much more. The installation of a flue for wood or multifuel stoves requires a class 1 liner with an inner of either 904 or 316 grade stainless steel. But what is the difference?

The majority of manufacturers just specify the “nominal output” and this figure means very little in real life. The nominal is a figure the manufacturer chooses to sell the stove at - the stove is capable of reaching at least this output with one fuel load. Nominal means "capable of". But it is not the maximum. This flue liner is the result of a unique manufacturing technique that uses two separate strips of steel (904 grade inner and 316 grade outer) to create a chimney flue liner that is incredibly strong, durable and comes with a 30-year guarantee.

Open and close the door on a cheap Chinese stove. Then open and close the door on a DG stove, Arada stoves, Woodford stoves, Hamlet stoves or Saltfire stoves. You’ll understand the difference. If you are going to be using your stove without a chimney flue liner, then under the Building Regulations you have an obligation to fit an appropriate register plate. If a 904 316 chimney liner is being fitted then a register plate is not required. A plate is still required (to prevent heat being wasted by travelling up into the chimney and also to prevent "old soot smells" into the room as a chimney warms from the heat of the liner) but this plate is called a closure plate which we will come to shortly. It is rare nowadays that chimney liners are not fitted (although stove flue pipes might be connected directly to pot lined chimneys) and register plates are rarely fitted nowadays.

If you have an unlined chimney then you should choose a plate which has an access hatch for sweeping access. When you sweep the chimney you remove the inspection hole cover plate and at the same time hoover or sweep any debris that has fallen on top of the register plate. It is strongly recommended that you get a HETAS approved tradesman to install and connect your log burner. The exhaust gases from stoves can be dangerous, due to carbon monoxide, if they leak out into the room, not to mention any risk of fire, so it really is advisable to get it done by a specialist.
