Chimney Sheep 13 x 13 Inch Square Chimney Draught Excluder

Chimney Sheep: First job, clean the flu. You will get dirty and protect your eyes. Measure the flu. Not as easy as it sounds, the narrowest part may be further up than you thought.. Mine was 9 × 12 ins. Ordered the 13 × 13 sheep, it fitted well with a bit of fiddling. The results are very good. Less air going up the flu and I believe it has made the room quieter Not cheap, but does the job.

Quality item. Great value.

Does the job. Purchased the smallest item on sale, but thought this one item was expensive regards its actual size

We have several fireplaces - only one of which is actually used - and we asked our chimney sweep's advice about reducing draughts from those not in use. He recommended the chimney sheep instead of balloons because they can be easily removed/replaced and don't trap moisture. After installation it was immediately noticeable how much more snug the rooms were, and also how the ambient noise of wind/traffic etc. was also reduced, dare I say even eliminated. The other aim of stopping granules of soot and old mortar from falling into the rooms was also achieved. The only slight difficulty was placing one of these high enough up the chimney as the standard handle and extension rod together weren't long enough. Though it's possible to buy extra extensions separately, we managed without (and without breaking anything) and simply hung the reminder tag on a long piece of string.

I had been using the plastic inflatable ones for years. They leak, they move, they start deflating. This wool made product is a fantastic solution that creates an airtight seal and that will never deflate. It is all high quality and well thought out, from the base to the plastic handle and the little visual ‘safety sheep’. Buy the right shape and size, slightly larger than your chimney as the edges bend to create the seal. Buy without esitation.

This is a complete game-changer for me!!! I just replaced an old gas fire with the fake stones that sat inside my fireplace... I reckon half the heat went up the chimney. It never really heated the room that well. I recently bought a flueless gas fire, a mock Wood burner. (not cheap) so blocked my chimney with this; it was like a gale, and suddenly stopped! I never realised how much air movement there was. Since installing said fire and Cimney Sheep, my room is constantly on 20 degrees on the very lowest position. It's astonishing! What's also amazing is that my bills haven't gone up and yet I am twice as warm!! Fantastic product. Also it's Natural. 10 out of 10.

The most difficult thing with this item is gauging the correct size! Lying on the floor looking up a chimney, and trying to measure with a bit of string can indeed be frustrating! However we managed, and it arrived and is quite easy to fit in place. It is obviously important to order slightly larger than slightly smaller, as the edges will adjust slightly as you push it in place. It has been in situ for some time now, and apart from the prevention of draughts/cold coming into the room, we can no longer hear the birds which sit on the roof! There is a tag which hangs down to remind us to remove it when next we light the fire. An invaluable item.

Bought it because I'm not really fan of chimney so after I bought it, it keeps the cold out. Maybe little bit expensive but the quality is good.

Extremely flimsy. Bought it to use in an 11" x 11", but it won't even stay in.

Easy to put in and out. Seals securely. A great product.

Produit conforme à nos attentes.

Bisogna fare attenzione alla misura della canna fumaria e scegliere la grandezza giusta. Una volta inserito funziona molto bene e la differenza in casa si sente! Ottimo acquisto

Nice quality and seems to be doing the job.
