Destroy my fireplace to put a steel pipe?

[dodo]

The circuit is not necessarily visible, there are plinths and cornices that hide the pipes, and of course the walls and heated floors.

a 15kw is around 4000 €, a 22kw 4700 €.
If your house is insulated (and an electric one should be) 15kw should be enough.

floor and wall this will not be easy.
isolated electrical house of the time, but I will remedy that.

[dodo]

from what I read on the ducted stoves can heat another room with forced air.

In my opinion must have felt a drying of the air as well as drafts a bit like on electric heating.

[Philippe Schutt]

all heating dries the air, since the air saturation rate drops when it heats. Jogging doesn't change anything in itself.

[dodo]

yes, besides the result interests me too

stainless steel destruction of the chimney on 2,50 + tubing + insulating tubing to replace the destroyed conduit 2800 euros

in a bushel destruction of the conduit over 5 m and deviating from the masonry conduit 2500 euros.

I was offered to redo the stainless steel pipe a few tens of cm for layout reasons.

but I wonder if a stainless steel pipe is as secure as a stainless steel tubed pipe in a bushel chimney.

[Philippe Schutt]

Yes, an insulated stainless steel pipe built in accordance with the rules is completely secure, few masonry pipes achieve the same performance.

- low thermal inertia
- low roughness
-high insulation
- acid resistance
-excellent sealing
-resistance to chimney fire
- almost unlimited lifespan

Ditto for the casing, except of course li the masonry conduit which serves as its support collapses;)

all you site is the advantages for the stainless steel chimney.
how does low thermal inertia work on a pipe?

[Philippe Schutt]

When a fire starts, there is always condensation in the chimney because it is cold. a stainless steel pipe will be hot faster, so condensation will stop faster.

And I add an advantage: non-porous materials, does not drink condensation

[Philippe Schutt]

there are disadvantages too, the price, the dressing not as simple.

[dodo]

yes but with a good covering and grates this can allow heat recovery.

unless the best compromise is the cased chimney.

I finally found someone serious to bring my chimney back to standard
