Chimney systems have been an important feature in the European construction industry for many years and the benefits of the system are widely known.
This has not been the case in the UK and Ireland where chimneys have commonly been constructed on site with components supplied by different manufacturers.

1st Layer
a high quality flue liner, made of fireclay, tested to EN1457.
2nd Layer
a flexible insulation board designed to maintain the temperature of the flue gases and allow them to pass freely up the chimney. It also allows the flue liner to expand and contract without damage.
3rd Layer
a lightweight chimney block which safely encases the whole system and provides additional insulation.

Traditionally, chimneys are completely constructed on site with separate components supplied by different manufacturers. This process is labour intensive and makes it difficult to ensure consistent insulation.
By contrast the Schiedel Swift offers modular, prefabricated units to speed construction and facilitate consistent quality standards.
• Designed for speed of construction.
An 8 metre internal chimney can be constructed from ground floor to chimney pot in 5 hours.
• Suitable for Timber Frame, Steel Frame and Masonry construction.
Solutions have been specifically designed to meet the requirement of timber framed construction.
• Modular units for easy assembly on site.
• Suitable for all fuels - gas, oil, wood and solid fuels.
• Everything you need.
All the components required to construct the chimney from the ground floor to the chimney pot are supplied on one or two pallets.
• Superior Insulation
The consistency of the insulation maintains the temperature of the flue ases, allowing them to pass freely up the chimney.
Back filling of insulation is not required.
• The use of a chimney tray (available as an accessory) is always recommended.

The Schiedel Swift is also an ideal solution for stoves, cookers and central heating boilers. Neat and simple solutions suit a variety of installations. Shown opposite are the solutions for a stove and a range style cooker. These options offer all the benefits of the Open Fire solutions along with tailor made components to simplify construction. The accessories on the stoves, cookers and boiler systems include preformed junction pipes and inspection doors for ease of maintenance.
