Industrial/Commercial/Domestic.

  • Survey of chimney flue systems within high-rise buildings.
  • Survey of free-standing industrial multi-flue chimneys.
  • Survey of domestic chimney flues.
  • Survey of gas shared flue systems SE ducts - U ducts - Shunt ducts.
  • Survey of large horizontal chimney flues using a self-propelled camera, from the boilers to the base of the vertical riser.
  • Removal of hard Creosote deposits from domestic brick chimney flues.
  • Electronic tracing/locating/mapping of the route of chimney flues through a building.
  • Ultrasonic thickness testing of steel flues.
  • Cleaning of chimney flues.

For the survey of free-standing industrial-type chimney stacks, our steeplejacks would ladder the stack and lower the camera from the top down. The video would be monitored and recorded in the survey van at the base of the stack.

The survey of chimney flues can be carried out from an Access Platform. The camera equipment can either be set up in the platform basket or cables can be run from the survey van at the base.

The highest we have surveyed chimney flues from an Access Platform is 85 metres.
