Our Works
These are some examples of our fireplace installations with the described ranges of work that we had to perform.
MK Solutions installs fireplaces of various types, including those we do not have in our offer. Very often the customer already has some other fireplace model or intends to buy it. We have no problem with installing such a fireplace.

Fireline FPi8 Multifuel Burning Stove

Thanks to many years of experience in working with fireplaces, we can offer our customers a larger diameter chimney flue pipe connector from 5 “to a 6” Flexible Stainless Steel Flue Line.
This is necessary to avoid excessive smoke escaping during reloading.
Why is it worth having a wide chimney
DEFRA after completing tests using kiln dried logs stated that 5 “is enough, but our experience shows that most customers do not always have access to such a high class of wood. This is why when lower class wood is used, various problems usually appear quickly.
With a 5 “chimney diameter and a heating capacity of 8kw, the chimney should be cleaned at least 3 times during the heating season. Room painting is planned every two years.
Increasing the diameter to 6 ” approximates us to the standards of max 1 to 2 chimney cleaning for the heating season and painting as with standard fireplaces every 4 – 6 years. Savings resulting from having a wider flue pipe return after about 2 years of using such a fireplace!

Increasing the diameter of the chimney
Due to our experience and according to our suggestions, the customer has decided to increase the diameter of the chimney to a size of 7 “. This has been done to increase the chimney draft. As a result, it was possible to achieve impressive chimney draft parameters, but not exceeding the upper norms allowed by the law. In this case, the length of the flue pipe did not exceed 9m, which allowed to legally expand the diameter of the chimney to 7 “.
