Isokern liner & open fire - National Chimney Academy

When it comes to creating a safe and efficient open fire, the combination of a fireback, Isokern liners, and proper insulation with Leca is a proven solution. This setup not only enhances the performance of your fireplace but also ensures durability and compliance with modern safety standards.

An Isokern liner is a lightweight, modular chimney system made from volcanic pumice. Its unique composition provides exceptional insulation properties, which help maintain optimal flue temperatures. Combined with a fireback, it forms the foundation of a well-functioning open fire system. Adding Leca insulation around the Isokern liner further improves safety and efficiency by preventing heat loss and protecting surrounding structures. Isokern liners must be installed within an existing chimney, or have a chimney built around them.
