Pennguard® for new steel chimneys and steel chimney flues

Pennguard® chimney linings are frequently used in new build applications to line steel flues suspended within concrete windshields.

Pennguard® chimney linings are also used in free-standing steel chimneys. A Pennguard® lining is an effective thermal insulator, so that external insulation of Pennguard® lined chimneys is not needed.

Pennguard® chimney linings can be installed in completely erected steel chimneys / flues or they can be applied to steel segments (cans) at ground level first, prior to erection. The chimney flue is then erected by welding the pre-lined cans together (see Project Report Pha Lai Power Station) or by using bolted flange connections (see Project Report West Burton Power Station). Only the field welds or flange areas are lined after erection.
