Why Keston High Rise Flue Kits Are the Best Fit for High-Rise Projects
Q: What makes the Keston high rise flue kit stand out?
Charlie: “The Keston high rise flue kit is built for durability, safety, and compliance. Constructed from 316 stainless steel, it’s highly corrosion-resistant and designed to handle the unique demands of high-rise installations. It also meets the latest fire safety regulations, making it suitable for buildings over 18 meters in England and Wales and 11 meters in Scotland. Beyond compliance, it provides a practical solution for contractors and building owners and simplifies installation while ensuring long-term reliability, efficiency, and peace of mind for the customer.”
Q: Are Keston high rise flue kits compatible with all Keston boilers?
Charlie: “The high-rise flue kit works seamlessly with our Combi 2 and System 2 boilers. That means whether it’s a domestic new build or a refurbishment project, contractors can specify the right system confidently, knowing it will integrate efficiently and safely with Keston approved boilers.”
Q: How straightforward is installation?
Charlie: “In my experience, installation is simple. Each kit is supplied as a complete package - with the air inlet, flue terminal, fittings, and thread sealant included - so installers don’t have to chase around for extra parts to mate to the familiar plastic flue system components that installers use as normal within the building. That means a quicker, cleaner job on site, with peace of mind that everything is fully compliant. The design also reduces the need for extra work, helping projects stay on schedule and within budget.”
Q: How do Keston high rise flue kits benefit building owners and occupants?
Charlie: “Essentially, these systems save time, money, and disruption. For example, in a recent project at Brewery Wharf in Leeds - a nine-storey residential development - our Combi 2 twin flue boilers were installed with Keston high rise flue kits without relocating the appliances. This minimised disruption for tenants, avoided costly building work, and ensured compliance with the latest fire safety regulations.
Q: Why should customers choose Keston for high-rise or twin flue installations?
Charlie: “Quite simply, Keston products combine compliance, reliability, and practical installation. Whether it’s a high-rise development or a refurbishment, our solutions are safe, energy-efficient, and minimise disruption. As a result, contractors, building managers, and homeowners all benefit from a system that works efficiently, meets regulations, and is backed by Keston’s expertise.”
