The invention of the design of the home stove influenced the development of systems whose action is aimed at the removal of hazardous smoke from the room. Over a long period of time, the chimneys have improved significantly, thanks to experimentation with materials, shapes and the location of their placement. Consider what types of this device the modern market offers, as well as which pipe should be chosen so that it does not burn out in a short period of time.
The most reliable and time-tested option is a pipe made of brick. Its distinguishing feature is that it is being erected during the construction phase of a house. Such a pipe does not burn out, but has a number of its drawbacks, such as:
- Quickly accumulates soot;
- It has large dimensions;
- Improper arrangement leads to the gradual destruction of the brick;
- High price;
Asbestos cement pipe is made of silicate mineral substance - asbestos, which has good resistance to fire. Its main negative qualities are: the tendency of the material to form condensate and the inability to install an inspection hatch. This material does not burn out, but regular exposure to high temperatures can destructively affect its structure.
A pipe made of ferrous metal or stainless steel has one big drawback - the ability to burn through. And if the stainless steel is able to withstand the effects of flame due to thick walls, then ferrous metal is considered the most fire hazardous chimney. In addition, the metal is very susceptible to corrosion, which also significantly affects the short-term service.
From the positive qualities we can distinguish the cheapness of the material. Often, the savings between a metal pipe and a brick reaches 80%.
If we compare ferrous metal and stainless steel, the latter is more advantageous. This is explained by the elementary installation, less intense accumulation of soot and light weight, not requiring the arrangement of the foundation. In addition, a high level of corrosion resistance will provide higher strength.
Having considered the most common options for pipes for the chimney, we can conclude that absolutely every type has its advantages and disadvantages. As for the metal material, it is very short-lived due to the effects of corrosion and the ability to burn through.
