Installing the flue system through the summerhouse roof

The stove can be positioned on the hearth with the collar of the stove or the 90 degree T and cap in position at the rear of the stove. The plumb line can then be used to locate the position on the roof above where the centre of the flue exit needs to be marked. The trim plate can be used to mark the hole to be removed. Drill a hole at the edge of the line to locate the jigsaw and remove the hole. With a good jigsaw blade this will also cut away the felt roof shingles. The aluminium roof plate can be flashed over the hole from the outside with the trim plate covering the hole on the inside.

The flue system was a summerhouse flue kit and used a combination of single wall vitrelux 100mm flue pipe and HT-S twin wall stainless steel 125mm flue pipe. made in Great Britain by Midtherm
