HS/FB/HSS
UL103 HT 2100°F
Models 6 and 8 HS feature a ceramic fiber refractory blanket to withstand intermittent temperatures up to 2100°F, as called for in UL103 HT Standard.
COMPACT ODs
The compact ODs let you install this com-pact prefabricated chimney in less space. The outside diameters are only 3" larger than inside diameters
LIGHTWEIGHT
Lightweight chimney makes for fast, easy one-man installations. A minimum 2" airspace clearance to combustibles is required.
SNAP-LOCK DESIGN
The proven snap-lock coupling system goes together fast—and keeps this chimney rigid and trouble-free. No cement, screws or straps are needed. The system is easy to connect in tight spots.
AmeriVent All-Fuel Chimneys are manufactured by American Metal Products, a pioneer in the development and simplification of effective venting products since 1951. AmeriVent is the preferred, most efficient, economical, and easily installed all-fuel chimney system in the industry.
Model HS Chimney Description
This chimney is listed (UL 103TYPE HT) for venting flue gases not exceeding 1000°F under continuous operating conditions. In addition, UL has conducted additional tests at 1400F for
one hour and 2100°F for 10 minutes to verify compliance with UL test standards. The Model HS incorporates a design woven ceramic fiber refractory blanket. Surrounded by two inner walls, this asbestos-free blanket has excellent high temperature stability, so it stays in place. It is noncombustible, thin, and lightweight. As a result, the Model HS chimney pipe features the same small outer dimensions and is compatible with our Model FB. It is light enough to be easily installed by one person.
The Model HS blanket exhibits superior resistance to high temperature deterioration. Its insulation has proven so effective that it is used as a fire retardant in aircraft, railroad tank cars, chemical facilities, and commercial buildings.
Model HS is built to last with a system combining corrosion resistant stainless steel and sturdy galvanized steel. All this adds up to extra protection for your customers through Amervent’s advanced chimney temperature engineering.
