Manufactured by Forterra’s trusted Red Bank range, this clay flue ventilator is designed to allow the safe release of residual gases and odours while preventing rainwater, debris, and small animals from entering the chimney system. Available in 170mm and 190mm diameters, the flue ventilator is fixed securely to the top of the chimney pot. Its distinctive vented design, featuring a series of small perforations, allows gentle ventilation of inactive flues. This helps avoid condensation, dampness, and stale odours that can otherwise build up in capped or unused chimneys. Crafted from high-quality clay, it’s not only durable and weather-resistant, but also perfectly complements red chimney pots and traditional brickwork, making it ideal for both heritage restorations and modern applications. Importantly, the flue ventilator also helps maintain air circulation within a redundant flue while preventing the leakage of residual combustion gases into the property, offering both safety and peace of mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade from Durable Natural Clay – Long-lasting and frost-resistant, suitable for UK weather conditions.
