The Fireplace Technician can resolve problems caused by stratification, the neutral pressure plane, and the effect of negative air pressure in the home with the use of a Magnehelic Differential Pressure Gage.

Wood Supply Testing

Your wood supply can be tested for you with a Protimeter to determine the water content and verify if it is a suitable combustible material.

Wet wood will not burn properly and can leave solid residues of acetic and pyroligneous acids that with age transforms by heat into hard, porous, shiny material or a flaky dust. This is called creosote and can ignite at any time.

Slate & Tile Hearths

Slate or tile hearths made to order, edged with heart rimu or paintable mdf moulding. Slate hearths edged either in slate or as above. Clients can provide own tiles or slate, price adjusted accordingly. All standard shapes and sizes for corner and wall installation, also semi-circle and custom shapes to client’s specifications by arrangement.
