Smoke Tests
A Static smoke test – checks the integrity of a flue. When an appliance is used or a fire is lit, a static smoke test will ascertain if smoke leaks from the flue into other areas of the property.
A Dynamic smoke test – checks the draw of an appliance or open fire. In other words, when the fire is lit, a dynamic smoke test is designed to establish if the smoke escapes up the flue efficiently or if it fills the room with smoke.
