i) When the cooker is connected to a brickwork chimney, we recommend
you install a 90º elbow joint, ensuring that the connection is fully sealed.
j) Avoid too much length in the connection between the cooker and the
chimney and a negative slope.
k) Clean the chimney at least once a year.
The most effective way of cleaning chimney flues is by using suitable chimney
brushes. There are chemical products that help delay the need for classic brush cleaning.
The brushes must be as tight fitting as possible to the chimney diameter.
k) The joints of the tubes forming the chimney, in the event of using simple
metal tubes, must be sealed using refractory filler.
l) The exterior metal chimneys must be built with special double heat-
resistant tubes for solid fuel.
