Error rigs - National Chimney Academy

A key part of becoming a skilled chimney professional is developing the ability to spot potential errors during installations. At the National Chimney Academy, our Error Rigs are designed to challenge delegates to identify and solve common installation mistakes on stove and open fire setups. This hands-on approach helps develop critical thinking and troubleshooting skills essential for ensuring safe and efficient installations.
