Stop Cold Draughts - Thanks to Inflatable Seal
An inflatable balloon expands inside the chimney flue to form a tight seal that blocks incoming air and wind noise. The expansion fills gaps and prevents convection currents through the flue.
Rooms stay warmer by reducing cold air infiltration and heat loss through the chimney, making central heating more effective.
Quick Fit Installation - With Free Mouth Inflation Tube
A simple inflation valve accepts the included mouth tube and is compatible with common foot pumps, allowing the barrier to be inflated without specialist tools. The flexible shape conforms to the flue opening for a secure fit.
Fitting takes minutes using the supplied tube or a pump, so homeowners can install the seal without a tradesperson.
Keeps Debris and Wildlife Out - With a Secure Internal Block
Once inflated the barrier occupies the flue opening, preventing leaves, nesting material and small animals from entering. The sealed position also helps block wind-driven noise.
Less cleaning and fewer blocked flues, with the added benefit of deterring birds and other wildlife from nesting inside the chimney.
