In the Western Cape, we braai a lot, and we make fires in winter to keep our homes warm. Unfortunately, in many cases, the chimney seems to smoke out of the house when we have a fire. As a result, the smell of smoke in the home seems to stay forever. The good news, we have a simple, cost-effective solution for this problem. For this reason, fitting a Chimney champ will reduce the problem substantially.

How Chimney Champ Smoke Extractors Work
Most of all chimney Champ ventilation units do not need wind for them to be effective. In fact chimney champ ventilation units work on heat pressure build-up from fire this is classified as convection. Furthermore, the units remove smoke and unwanted smells.
In South Africa, Chimney Champs are manufactured by Windmaster. Above all, these ventilation units are manufactured to the highest standards. For example, the Chimney Champ units are constructed from galvanised sheeting that is 0.6mm thick. In addition to the galvanised finish, the units are coated with Vario self-edging primer that prevents corrosion. Significantly Chimney smoke extraction units can then withstand temperatures of as much as 300 DegC. Check out our roof ventilation price for the best deal in South Africa by far.
