Easy to install and remove, a chimney pillow is an inflatable bag made from a special laminate that makes them airtight, tear-resistant and long-lasting. It's been specially designed to stop cold draughts, and to be easily positioned, whilst allowing a little ventilation up the chimney. It's completely safe: if heated it shrivels up. You can also get a mouth inflation tube so you can still inflate it once it's up the chimney. To order, choose the size you need, click on add to basket, or read on for more information. Nigel Says
More information Size Guide The sizes shown above are chimney sizes and not pillow sizes. The Chimney Pillow itself will be slightly larger. The sizes are length x width. How to choose the correct size of Chimney Pillow Chimneys with a damper (If your chimney has a damper you should see a metal flap with a lever that closes the chimney.) The Chimney Pillow should be installed above the damper. Select an area for its installation making sure that this does not interfere with the damper flap or any damper hardware. The area must have parallel or slightly sloping walls ideally with texture for the Pillow to grab and lodge when inflated. The damper ledge acts to provide extra support to the weight of the Pillow. A Chimney Pillow can also be installed well above the damper, so it is possible to close the damper below it. Measure the length and depth of the chimney in the location you have selected to install the Pillow. Chimneys without a damper (a chimney with no closing mechanism) Identify the narrowest part of your chimney within arms reach. Choose an area to install the Chimney Pillow. Make sure it won't be interfered with by any hardware or sharp edges in the chimney. The area must have parallel or slightly sloping walls ideally with texture for the Pillow to grab and lodge when inflated. Measure the length and depth of the chimney in the location you have selected. This product usually ships within 24 hours. Standard UK delivery cost is £3.95. Not what you're after?
