SUPAFLU Chimney Liner Systems
Supaflu
offers you many benefits including: improved structural stability,
ease of maintenance, and suitability to all fuel types. However,
Supaflu’s most important benefits are improved efficiency
and added safety.
Supaflu is designed to insulate your chimney while providing
an effective barrier between the flue gases and your living
quarters. Because of its’ liquid consistency, Supaflu
fills all cracks and pores, greatly reducing the chance of
your exposure to toxic gases.
As an insulator, Supaflu is superior. In fact the R-value
is 500% greater than clay tile liners. This insulation ensures
that flue gases remain hotter and more buoyant, thus improving
overall venting efficiency and reducing buildup within the
flue. Additionally, your chimneys’ exterior surface
temperature will be lowered, reducing the chance combustible
materials surrounding your chimney may ignite. Supaflu is
non-corrosive and is free of asbestos. Also, when subjected
to alternate freeze-thaw cycles, Supaflu showed no signs of
surface degradation.
The Installation Process
Prior to installation, the chimney is inspected, cleaned
and prepared using chimney maintenance procedures and equipment
recognized by our industry. Should the flue already be lined,
the existing liner is removed.
All openings in the chimney structure such as clean-outs,
thimbles, and fireplace openings are sealed and weak areas
in the chimney are braced.
The proper size Flu-former is calculated for the particular
heating application. The Flu-former, an inflatable rubber
former, is then lowered and guided into the chimney flue.
The Flu-former is then inflated and centered within the flue.
The Supaflu mix is prepared (adding water). The material
is then pumped into the chimney from the top and fills the
space between the flu-Former and the inside of the chimney
casing.
After the new supaflu liner has fully cured, the Flu-former
is deflated and removed from the flue, leaving a smooth, round,
one-piece liner.
Lifetime Warranty
Your new chimney liner is backed by our Lifetime Warranty.
Supaflu is the first cast-in-place chimney lining system to
back it's products with your home. Even if you sell your home,
Supaflu will honor the warranty for a period of ten (10) years
from the date of installation, so that even the buyer of your
home will benefit from any years remaining on the warranty
at the time you sell your home.
