Chimney Lining
We are now pleased to be agents for Landy Vent and able to install their innovative Eldfast ceramic flue lining system. Eldfast is an in-situ applied lining, drawn through the flue by means of a "plug", leaving a 4mm nominal thickness of material on the flue face.
Eldfast is a wholly ceramic material composed of two elements: a refractory ceramic aggregate in powder form and a resin bonding agent that together create a "slurry" with adhesive properties when applied under pressure.

This photo shows the "before" and "after" of a brick
flue, sealed and lined with Eldfast. Note the decayed state of the original lime mortar parging in the picture to the left. The finished Eldfast lining will not suffer from the same susceptibility to attack from acid condensates. |
Traditionally, only materials containing water, lime/clay mortar or cement have been available to re-parge a flue internally, these materials are now known to be prone to acid attack and deterioration.
For more information about the Eldfast system, please see the following downloadable PDF documents:-
We will be pleased to discuss your chimney/flue lining needs with you and to provide a quotation without obligation. Please contact us for more information.
