When is an external duct needed?

  • Premises with no flue to the roof
  • Boiler or stove without a chimney
  • Old duct that is loose or rusted
  • Extraction that does not draw well

What the duct installation includes

  • Route survey

    We define the route, diameter and outlet to suit the appliance and the RITE.

  • Twin-wall ducting

    Stainless or galvanised steel, insulated where the use requires it.

  • Brackets and clamps

    Anchored to the façade at regular intervals so the duct does not vibrate or move.

  • Penetrations and joints

    Wall or slab penetrations and sealed joints to prevent leaks and drips.

  • Roof outlet

    Finished with a cowl above the roof line, away from windows.

  • Discreet finish

    Powder-coated or painted duct in the façade colour, if you wish.

Ducts up the façade in Horta-Guinardó: how we plan the route

On narrow streets in areas such as El Baix Guinardó, El Guinardó and Can Baró, scaffolding would take over the pavement and get in the way of residents and traffic. So we install the duct in sections hung from the roof, with the work area marked off below and hours agreed with the building.

For every duct we install in areas such as El Carmel and La Teixonera, we start by measuring the route from the appliance to the outlet and choosing diameter and material for the use and the RITE. That tells us where the brackets go and where to cross the wall or slab.

With over 20 years in construction, we plan the route, explain how we would install the duct and set it out in a written quote. We carry out rope access work nearby too: Gràcia, Nou Barris and Sant Andreu.

02

Can a duct from a ground-floor unit be taken up to the roof without scaffolding?

Yes. We install the duct in sections, working on ropes from the roof, without taking up the pavement with structures or closing the street.

03

Does the duct have to come out above the roof?

For smoke and boiler flues, usually yes, at the height and distance from windows set by regulations. During the visit we check what your case requires.

04

What do you do with the old duct?

We dismantle it in sections from the ropes, lower it carefully and take it away, then make good the old fixing points on the façade.
