Prity Woodburning Boiler

The flue presented some problems as the standard 45deg elbow to take the smoke from the boiler would mean that the pipe would enter the bottom of the chimney too high.... this meant we had to make an elbow with a slightly sharper bend...

This was fabricated from steel sheet & mig welded...

First lighting filled the house with smoke due to an un-noticed split in the old piece of flue.... some water leaks also became apparent!

All in all a challenging afternoon... drain down, sort leaks & think about the flue... the vitreous enamel pipe sold for stoves is incredably expensive, so, as always a lower cost alternative had to be found... local scrap yard came up with two pieces of heavy steel pipe, each about 2m long... for a fiver!
