Our Standard Flue System (SFS), also known as the default triple-skin flue, has been a trusted choice in Australian homes for decades. This system uses room air to keep the outer casings cool, ensuring safe passage through combustible ceilings and roofs.
SFS kits come standard with a fully stainless high-wind cowl, a durable black powder-coated finish, and seam-welded stainless sections for a precise round fit and seamless look.
Available with either a modern silhouette mesh finish or a solid outer casing, these flue kits are built to the highest quality standards while providing a sleek, stylish finish to your new fireplace.
For a seamless look above the roofline, we also offer a full powder-coated black option from spigot to cap, designed to blend effortlessly with tiled or Colorbond roofs.
Roof Support
VisionLINE flue systems offer optional adjustable roof supports, designed to make pipe installation above the roof both simple and secure. These robust adjustable arms ensure stability, even in high winds, and meet the requirements for pipes that need to clear obstructions in compliance with AS/NZS 2918.
Warranty
VisionLINE flue systems are backed by a 10-year warranty against manufacturing defects. The warranty does not cover damage resulting from incorrect installation or misuse beyond product specifications.
Bushfire Attack Level
In certain Australian regions, Bushfire Attack Levels (BAL) assess the risk of bushfire impact. The construction risk varies based on the rating in your area, which may require specific building materials and methods. VisionLINE’s AFS+ and IFS flue systems are tested and rated to the highest BAL-FZ standard, in accordance with AS 1530.8.2 and AS 3959. This ensures that you can safely install a wood fireplace in a BAL-FZ zone while remaining fully compliant.
CE-Certified Ceramic Insulation
All VisionLINE insulated flue systems use a CEcertified ceramic insulation blanket. This ceramic fibre insulation delivers optimal performance for clearance and structural integrity, ensuring quality and safety. The blanket is tested to CE standards and can withstand temperatures above 1,750°C and 123 kg/m³ pressure, as per EN testing requirements. This allows for the minimum possible clearance with a 25mm insulated flue pipe.
Testing
All VisionLINE flue systems undergo rigorous testing per Appendix F of AS/NZS 2918, covering the installation of venting pipes through the roof. Both IFS and AFS+ pipes also hold an opinion letter for Appendix B of AS/NZS 2918, which addresses appliance and pipe clearance within the room. Additionally, AFS+ is CE-EN-NO 1856 certified, which tests for tensile and compressive strength, wind load performance, aerodynamic stability under wind tunnel conditions, and gas tightness from unit to termination. This testing includes scenarios in enclosed environments, such as passive home envelopes. It’s the only flue system in Australia with this certification.
Powder-Coated Finish
All VisionLINE flue systems feature a strong and durable powder-coated finish. Powder coating not only adds a stylish touch to your flue system but also provides a protective layer for the outer flue, making it ideal for areas exposed to harsh environmental conditions, including seaside locations. Additionally, powder coating enables the outdoor installation of a black-finished pipe, unlike high-temperature wet paint, which is not designed for exterior use.
