Warranty matters
We were interested to read a recent
survey undertaken by the electric water
heating specialists, Redring, which
discovered that 86% of installers asked
stated that the terms of a warranty
influenced their purchasing choice.
84% believed that the longer the
warranty; the better the product – a
belief that was backed up by end users,
who also equated a decent warranty
with product quality.
With long, even life-time warranties
on several of our ranges, we were
heartened by this. By offering a decent
warranty a manufacturer is asserting
the confidence it has in it products,
giving peace of mind to installers and
their customers.
Schiedel’s life-time warranties
At Schiedel, we pride ourselves on
developing the very best in innovative,
long-lasting flueing and chimney
solutions. We’re so sure of our products
performance that, for our ICID Plus
and TecnoFlex flue ranges, we offer
lifetime warranties – as long as they’re
specified, installed and maintained
correctly. It’s also designed to be particularly
resistant to corrosion with a laser
welded 316L stainless steel inner liner
and case. This gives ICID Plus a longer
lifespan compared to other flues on the
market - and installers and customers’
peace-of-mind.
ICID Plus – built to last As the product is available in a
variety of sizes and finishes its a
very attractive option for a variety of
installations.
Last year we introduced the ICID plus
3-in-1 flue system to our product
range. ICID Plus is ideal for traditional
stoves as well as more innovative
appliances. Pellet stoves, biomass
stoves and boilers, mini/micro CHP
and even condensing boilers capable of
withstanding positive pressure are all
compatible with the flue.
The system’s outer case is load-bearing
whilst the inner liner is free to expand
independently, which allows thermal
expansion within each and every joint.

TecnoFlex – ultimate flexibility
If a flexible flue is what you need,
our twin skin TecnoFlex Plus range is
equally impressive. Designed to line an
existing flue or chimney, it is suitable
for gas, oil and multi-fuel appliances
wherever the maximum flue gas
temperature doesn’t exceed 600°C.
