C.- Connecting The Chimney - Hergom SHELBURNE Libro De Instrucciones Para La Instalación, Mantenimiento Y Uso

The advantages of metal chimneys are:
 Easy installation.
 Slight changes in chimney direction can be made, leading to greater flexibility
in the choice of location for the stove.
 Due to there being curved elbow joint,
sharp edges that make draught difficult
are removed.

C.- CONNECTING THE CHIMNEY

The flue of a lounge chimney is not very
recommendable for use as a chimney flue for a stove
as it has a very large section. If you wish to use it, we
recommend you use metal tubes on the inside with the
appropriate diameter.
In this case, one of the heads (we recommend
the upper head) must be covered to prevent the
formation of draught that may cool the smoke
circulating along the metal chimney. (Fig.-2)
This model of HERGÓM stove has the smoke
outlet collar directed 45º in relation to the horizontal,
which will allow you to choose the most suitable
direction, either horizontal or vertical, by merely

Ensure that all of the tubes in the chimney are well fitted and that their joints are fully
airtight.

When connecting the stove to the chimney, elbow joints and long horizontal sections
must be avoided as they make the draught difficult and favour the formation of creosote and
