WADEX DWW INVEST Condensate Collector for Insulated Chimney 50/200

The WADEX DWW INVEST condensate collector is a high-quality component engineered for insulated chimney systems with a 50/200 mm diameter. This essential fitting is designed to manage moisture effectively by collecting and draining condensate that forms within the flue, thereby protecting the integrity of the chimney structure and ensuring the efficient operation of the heating system.

Advantages

Constructed from premium stainless steel, this condensate collector offers exceptional resistance to corrosion and high temperatures, ensuring a long service life even under demanding conditions. Its robust design facilitates reliable moisture management, which is critical for preventing internal damage to the chimney stack and maintaining optimal draft performance. By integrating this component into your chimney system, you enhance overall safety and reduce the risk of structural degradation caused by acidic condensate buildup.

Suitable for

• Insulated chimney systems with a 50/200 mm diameter
• Gas, oil, and solid fuel heating installations
• New chimney constructions and renovation projects

When it may not be suitable

This component is specifically designed for insulated chimney systems with a 50/200 mm diameter and is not compatible with non-insulated flue pipes or systems with different diameter specifications. It should not be used in applications where the flue gas temperature exceeds the rated limit of 450°C.

Key specifications

• Material: Stainless steel
• Diameter: 50/200 mm
• Operating temperature range: 1°C to 450°C

How to use

The condensate collector should be installed at the lowest point of the vertical chimney section to ensure effective drainage. It is typically connected to the chimney base or a tee piece. Ensure that the drainage outlet is connected to a suitable neutralization or disposal system to handle the acidic condensate safely. Professional installation is recommended to ensure all joints are properly sealed and the chimney system remains airtight.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the exact diameter of your existing insulated chimney system
• Ensure the material compatibility with your heating appliance
• Confirm that the installation location allows for proper drainage access

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the condensate drainage outlet to ensure it remains clear of debris and that moisture is flowing freely. Annual maintenance by a qualified technician is advised to check the condition of the stainless steel components and the integrity of the chimney seals.
