How to remove a pipe from the furnace through the wall

It is well known that good draft is provided by a high-quality chimney. The latter acts as one of the main elements responsible for the absence of smoke, lower fuel consumption and faster heating of the air in the room. If the construction of a house and a bath is underway, then you should contact the master to perform professional installation. In the case of repair or refurbishment of the furnace, the best option is the output of pipes through the wall surface. We will deal with this issue in more detail.

The installation of the design of the smoke exhaust is quite complicated, so most owners of suburban housing seek the professional services of craftsmen practicing in this field. But, having some skills, work can be done independently. In addition, there are many modular configurations on sale today, the installation of which is not difficult.

REFERENCE! All chimneys can be divided into two types - with an internal and external system. The choice depends on the location of the heating device and its modification.

The internal smoke removal system makes it possible to use fuel with a maximum efficiency, since thermal energy is given out over the entire length of the pipe. But its installation is complicated by the fact that it is necessary to additionally make holes in the ceiling and roof. All clearances at the junctions of structural elements must be carefully sealed to prevent leakage and structural failure.

The external design is the simplest, so each owner can personally perform all the work using the recommendations below. An undoubted advantage is the reduced risk of leaks. To reduce heat loss, you need to insulate the chimney. The compact size allows you to install heating appliances even in a small room. The only drawback is the greater fuel consumption.

Before starting installation work, it is important to familiarize yourself with the basic rules:

• the chimney can not be laid in places where the main communication paths (sewage, electricity, etc.) pass;
• to reduce the degree of heat loss, it is recommended to place most of the pipe inside the building, and install a deflector over the pipe so that precipitation does not get inside;
• the fastener pitch of the structure should be up to 1 meter to prevent distortion and failure, and when passing through the wall, no joints can be made;
• it is important to equip the lower part of the pipe with special tees that are necessary to eliminate condensate - its formation can significantly complicate the procedure for kindling the stove;
• the top of the pipe should be located about 15-25 cm above the roof.

The installation process of the chimney is divided into several successive stages.After drawing up the project, you can begin work on installing the smoke exhaust system. Using a special tool, a hole is drilled in the wall. It is important to use the appropriate nozzles, which will prevent the formation of cracks on the facade of the building. After creating a hole, concrete and brick walls do not need to be further processed by anything, only repaired with putty to prevent wall degradation in the future. If you have wooden walls, then they should first be protected from overheating and ignition. For this, heat-resistant insulating materials, glass wool or ceramic mixtures can be used.

Once everything is ready, you can start assembling the chimney elements from the outside of the building. This is easy to accomplish when choosing modern design models. Below is an example assembly diagram of the chimney.

At the final stage, the assembled smoke exhaust system should be tested to make sure that it functions correctly and to prevent possible problems in the future.

IMPORTANT! Before lighting a fire, make sure that there is air draft. Today on sale there are practical smoke exhaust systems that almost completely eliminate the mistakes made during installation work.

The above procedure has many advantages:

• a minimum number of materials is required to assemble the structure;
• the volume of construction work is minimal, which allows you to complete the installation in the absence of professional knowledge and skills;
• it is not necessary to deform the surface of the walls of the building.

And finally, a few recommendations from professionals:

• when purchasing chimney elements, it is important to consider that the larger the diameter of the pipes, the more powerful the smoke exhaust systems will function;
• the optimum height of the pipe is 5 meters, but in each case it is individual;
• the outlet of the chimney is better done from the gables;
• if you have wooden walls, then you should take care of installing a protective screen to prevent fire.

Based on the foregoing, it can be noted that with our own forces it is quite possible to remove the pipe from the furnace through the wall. But to achieve a faster result and confidence in the reliability of the design, it is recommended that you still seek the qualified help of masters who have been practicing in this area for more than one year.
