How to become a Stove \/ Chimney Installer<\/h1>\n

As a builder have you ever thought about adding the skills to be able to install a chimney and become a fully qualified stove fitter?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stoves and fireplaces are becoming more fashionable and desirable. So many bricked up chimneys are being liberated and given a new lease of life, and new, more efficient stoves, are being installed, which offer multi-fuel options allowing homeowners to control their energy bills. Also, with house prices remaining high, people don’t move and tend to renovate, or extend their homes in today’s climate.<\/p>\n

Even homes without chimneys are having them retrofitted externally and stylishly to make it a new feature of a home. We’ve had many examples of installers sending in photographs, or posting on social media<\/a> some of their excellent work.<\/p>\n

Building up a chimney is very similar to other joinery and building work you will have experience of. In fact, it’s a very simple step by step process, made much easier with the various options we have in components, which are easy to connect together.<\/p>\n

For example, to build a firechest, for those who wish to have an open fire, you build up using our Isokern<\/a>\u00a0range, which is an insulated pumice system. You\u00a0begin to construct the flue in the same way a plumber would construct piping around the home – check out the video further down on this page to see how easy it is.<\/em><\/p>\n

For Steel Chimneys<\/a>, we have a number of options such as screw fit and push fit, which again is not too different from connecting pipes, only on a larger scale.<\/p>\n

Ceramic chimneys<\/a> are now very efficient and offer benefits and are fully compatible with the increasingly efficient modern appliances, as well as meeting the more traditional soot fire requirements.<\/p>\n

The great news is that a Schiedel Chimney System is widely regarded as the most efficient and reliable system on the market, plus the flues can connect to ANY stove.<\/p>\n
