About this chimney draught excluders
Rectangular pads are made for rectangular fireplaces, but a stove with a round flue pipe is a different shape. A round chimney excluder is cut as a disc and fills a circular opening without gaps at the corners, which a rectangle would leave.
This Chimney Sheep is 8 inches round and fits flues up to 7 inches across. Like the rest of the range, it is made from breathable Herdwick wool felt, which blocks the draught but lets moisture pass, a key point for a stove flue that sits cold and damp for half the year. It fits by hand and lifts out in seconds.
It is intended for a stove or a closed appliance that you do not use in summer or in the months when you do not light it. Remove the pad before you light the stove, and do not leave it in place in a flue that serves any appliance in use. If in doubt about your flue, a HETAS-registered installer can advise.

The complete guide
A round liner is a tall, cold pipe. Cold air falls down it and into the room, particularly when the wind is up.
Fit a pad in the autumn when you are not using the stove, and remove it before the first fire.
Never leave it in when the stove is lit, and leave the reminder tag hanging where you can see it.
