Chimney Pipe Is Required for Venting Fireplaces and Appliances
Chimney pipeis required for venting different types of fireplaces and appliances in your home. Certain types of older homes with fireplaces often have brick and clay chimneys along the exterior of the home. Newer model homes can use steel piping for chimneys instead, which allows the fireplace to be placed in the interior of the home and away from exterior walls. Placing the fireplace in the interior provides better heating efficiency and keeps more heat in the home, instead of going up and out the chimney.
Replace Chimney Pipe with Compatible Replacement Pieces
When replacing chimney pipe it is important that you look for steel piping, like is available on our website, here at New Energy Distributing, which is compatible with your existing fireplace or other type of appliance. The reason you want compatible piping is to prevent gaps between pieces as well as ensure snug connections to prevent smoke and other gases from escaping out of the chimney.
