The cross-section determines whether your appliance operates safely and efficiently. If it is too small, exhaust gases back up; if it is too large, the draught is insufficient. With DruckZugPro you can check online and for free whether your existing chimney fits the planned stove.

FAQ
What happens if the cross-section is too small?
Exhaust gases are not adequately discharged. This can cause smoke in the living space, condensation, and in the worst case CO poisoning. DruckZugPro warns you when the calculation yields an insufficient cross-section.
Can I compare different chimney materials?
Yes. Stainless steel, ceramic, and masonry chimneys have different thermal conductivities. In the configurator you can choose the material and instantly see the effect on calculated draught.
