What is it for?
If you have a problem with downdraught and are burning solid fuel (wood, coal or oil) or using a gas system then the UFO (Ultimate Flue Outlet) Multifuel Cowl is a good solution and has been used for many years to good effect. The UFO’s specially shaped discs channel wind to create an updraught (or lower pressure) at the top of the system to counteract wind related downdraught.
What sizes & options are available?
A UFO Multifuel Cowl (Square) will fit onto a square chimney pot with an internal measurement of 150mm to 250mm (6" to 10"). Please do not hesitate to contact our sales team, who would be happy to help, if you require a different size.
The UFO Multifuel Cowl is made in powder coated aluminium available in terracotta or black
How do I fit one?
For gas systems
The UFO Multifuel Cowl is supplied fully assembled ready for gas installation. Once up on the roof, it is the work of a few minutes to attach the cowl using the stainless steel strap.
For solid fuel systems
Before installing on a solid fuel system, the mesh birdguard must be removed, and the four mounting tabs adjusted (full instructions provided) - you may find it easier to order our Square UFO Solid Fuel Cowl which is factory assembled ready for installation on a solid fuel system. Once up on the roof, it is the work of a few minutes to attach the cowl using the stainless steel strap.
