ALS Chimneys Guarantee

Furanflex Lining

Guarantee

  • The customer must ensure that they only burn suitable, recommended fuels for the appliance and must adhere to the manufacturers guidelines.
  •  Burning wet wood or waste products will cause heavy deposits of soor and tar to build up inside the liner, reducing its operational life and increasing the risk of fire.
  • The guarantee therefore covers the original purpose i.e. appliance and fuel source.
  • An application will need to be made for any subsequent change of appliance/fuel source.
  • Should non-approved fuel be used or flue gas temperature exceeds the approved level (i.e. leaving doors and vents open in a wood burning stove will generate excessive temperature) then the guarantee will be void.
  • The operation of the appliance must comply with the manufacturers instructions.
  • Running the appliance at low output for long periods will increase the build-up of corrosive condensates and reduce the working life of the liner.
  • The guarantee will only be effective if the installation is correctly registered with Kompozitor Ltd (Kompozit’all UK Ltd). This must detail the fuel system being used.
  • The guarantee covers only the repair to the liner which is confirmed as due to a manufacturing fault. It will not cover any costs incurred by additional or sub-sequential costs (collateral damage).
  • The chimney must be maintained by a qualified and approved chimney sweep, using the correct polypropylene brushes and the operation confirmed with a certificate.
  • Chemical cleaner must NOT be used.

  • Any unapproved fuel has been burned
  • The appliance (stove) has been operated for long periods with the doors open

  • Chemical cleaners have been used in the cleaning process
  • The chimney or liner has suffered a chimney fire
