• have internal section equivalent to that of the stack.
• have a useful output section twice as big as the flue internal one.
• be manufactured in such a way as to prevent the penetration of rain, snow, and any other foreign
body in the flue.
• be easily checkable, for any possible maintenance and cleaning operation.
