Chimney Installation


As the chimney is connected to your fireplace or oven, thus the most suitable place to install it would be inside the house envelope rather than next to the outside of the house wall. Installing a chimney to the outside wall of the house makes it exposed to the weather impacts and thus can reduce draft or cause condensation. Chimneys that have been built inside the house benefit from the warm environment and produce stronger draft.

It is very important that when you are installing a chimney you have to take into account all the building codes; as they are different in various countries we suggest you to find out those laws and ask some help so your building would follow them. Chimneys that do not follow the building codes can not only bring along problems with the building inspectors, but also cause a fire hazard.

Therefore, again the most suitable advice to give in terms of installing a chimney is to contact a professional building company. They are well aware of all the necessary codes and rules that have to be followed. Thus, they can guarantee that once a chimney is installed there will not be ant further problems afterwards.
