In order to prevent any risk of fire in the chimney, it is extremely important to pay the utmost attention to keeping the safety distance between the flue gas system and any adjacent combustible material. Just think of relined ducts inside a shaft or those crossing wooden roofs and ceilings.
Therefore, when designing and installing, it is important to consider both the distance values provided by the manufacturers (in the product designation), and any use of insulating systems that can highly increase the thermal protection level of the system.
Based on the above considerations, Stabile SpA recently introduced in its catalogue the “IT” that is composed of a series of high performance thermal insulators tested at operating temperatures between 250° C and 1200° C.
The “IT” system includes many items as follows: aluminum-coated rock wool cupels; aluminum-coated fiberglass cupels; ecological fiber mats with or without aluminum coating; silicate calcium plates; rigid or flexible micro-porous plates; fiberglass ropes; high temperature gaskets; aluminum adhesive tapes; glues and sealants for high temperatures.
