Keep your passive home, passive approved when installing a wood heater

What makes a passive home is the attention to detail in ensuring that there is NO air loss for heat to escape

Homes use an Air Tight Membrane to ensure the home is air tight, cutting any hole into this must be sealed off to avoid air (and heat) loss

There are many brands of wood heaters with outside air that can be installed into a passive home, but when it comes to the flue – Pivot’s RSF Insulated flue was designed specifically for passive homes

  • Our RSF flue can be installed on any make, model or brand wood heater

This page will explain how Pivot’s RSF Insulated Flue will ensure when installing your passive approved wood heater, the flue also complies.

PASSIVE HOME REQUIREMENTS

There are a number of approved wood heaters that have outside air for passive homes
But only 1 approved flue; Pivot's RSF flue is passive home approved.
This is achieved in 2 parts:

It's about the flue

Pivot's RSF Insulated flue uses insulation to keep the flue at the correct (and safe) temperature

No air is used to cool the flue down

Pivot's RSF Insulated Flue

Made out of all Stainless Steel with our unique Twist Lock joining system, our fully insulated flue is 100% air (and water) tight

It's about ensuring the home is air tight

To help keep a true passive home, it's not the flue - it's the cutting of the homes membrane is where the house will loose its passive design

Pivots RSF Insulated flue was designed specifically for Passive Homes

The up stand on our ceiling ring allows the installer to seal the membrane to the ceiling ring to achieve a true ROOM SEAL for your wood heater installation

Designed to work

Our RSF Ceiling ring uses high temp insulation to seal against the ceiling to provide the 1st step in sealing the room
No need to silicone to the plaster, the ceiling ring has 3 straps to allow you to PULL TIGHT against the ceiling, for the insulation to properly air seal the room

A ceiling ring for every pitch
