Online StoreTriple-wall Stainless Steel Chimneys for Quick Installation and Modern Appearance
Modular chimneys are suitable for all types of heating appliances, ensuring long lifespan, safety, and energy efficiency. If you already have an existing building or a residential house, and you need quick execution and more flexibility in chimney placement, a modular chimney is the right choice for you.
Why Choose a Triple-Wall Chimney?
Less Condensation, Greater Safety
Karodi modular chimneys have a thicker insulation layer than products from other manufacturers (5 cm of rock wool), which reduces the possibility of condensation, tarring, and chimney fires.
Soot Ignition Resistance
The chimney is designed to withstand extremely high temperatures even in the event of potential soot ignition. This is confirmed by a certificate in accordance with standards.
Instant Connection, Hassle-Free
Once the installation is complete, the chimney is immediately ready for use. There is no need for additional finishing layers, plastering, or drying.
Long Lifespan
The stainless steel flue requires minimal maintenance. The smooth pipe allows for easier cleaning and less soot accumulation.
Flexibility
Since a modular chimney takes up less space than a masonry one, it is suitable for attics, prefabricated houses, or narrow areas. Additionally, it allows for offsets – for example, to avoid a window or a roof beam. Masonry chimneys must run in a straight line, which often limits placement.
Better Draft
The inner stainless steel pipe heats up faster than chamotte. Faster heating also reduces the risk of condensation and subsequent tar accumulation.
Modular (Triple-Layer) Stainless Steel Chimneys are the Fastest and Best Modern Choice
Classic Masonry Chimneys
are built from brick without inner flues. Due to leakage, they are no longer built today.
Masonry Chimneys with Fireclay Flues
are resistant to high temperatures and have a longer lifespan, but they heat up slower, which can cause condensation of flue gases.
Modular (Triple-Layer) Chimneys
are the fastest and most flexible modern solution.
- Better draft and less condensation.
- Suitable for all types of heating appliances and fuels.
- Installation without foundation – the chimney can start at any height from the ground.
- Option for color customization.

What Distinguishes Triple-Wall Chimneys Karodi from Others?
Better Thermal Insulation
The insulation layer of Karodi chimneys is thicker than most products from other manufacturers.
Greater Efficiency and Energy Saving
By maintaining higher temperatures in the chimney, combustion efficiency increases, thereby reducing fuel consumption.
Better Chimney Draft
Maintaining higher flue gas temperatures contributes to better chimney draft.
Less Condensation and Tarring
Effective insulation maintains higher temperatures, prevents flue gas cooling, and reduces the possibility of condensation.
Longer Lifespan
Better insulation reduces the risk of corrosion and other damage.
How is a
Modular Chimney Constructed?
Triple-wall stainless steel chimneys are composed of three layers:
Inner Pipe
Made of high-quality stainless steel, resistant to corrosion and high temperatures.
Insulation Layer
High-density rock wool, resistant to high temperatures and designed to reduce heat loss and prevent condensation.
Outer Casing
Made of aluminum or stainless steel, resistant to weather conditions, light, and mechanical stress.
A Chimney that Matches your House
By choosing the right color for the outer casing, the chimney can become a discreet part of the building or an aesthetic highlight that complements the overall architecture of the structure.
- Stainless steel (AISI 304) – matte finish
- Wood imitation
- Colored aluminum - the following colors are available:
White (RAL 9010)
Black (RAL 9005)
Brick Red
(RAL 8004)
Silver (RAL 9006)
Dark Red (RAL 3009)
Dark Brown (RAL 8017)
Anthracite (RAL 7016)
Stainless Steel (Matte)
For even greater flexibility, powder coating of stainless steel in any RAL shade desired by the customer is possible. This option allows for complete aesthetic harmonization of the chimney with the building and is available at an additional cost.

Frequently Asked Questions from our Customers
Does a Triple-Wall Stainless Steel Chimney Really not Require Foundations?
Yes. Due to its lightweight construction, it can be started at any height – it is usually attached to the facade or roof. This means fewer construction interventions and faster installation.
Is a Modular Chimney Safe Even for Wooden Houses?
Yes. A modular chimney has a thick insulation layer of rock wool, which effectively prevents the heating of external surfaces. Therefore, it is completely safe even in wooden houses. The prescribed distance from combustible materials is 10 cm.
We exclusively use elements that are certified according to SIST EN standards and comply with all fire safety regulations.
When to Choose a Triple-Wall Stainless Steel Chimney Instead of a Masonry one?
A modular chimney is an excellent choice when:
- it’s an existing building or a renovation,
- you are building a prefabricated house,
- you want a quick solution without major construction work,
- you need an offset or the chimney to start above ground level.
A masonry chimney is more suitable for classic new constructions where there is enough space and the chimney’s placement within the building’s structure is already planned.
Can I Offset the Modular Chimney (Avoiding a Window or Eaves)?
Yes. A modular chimney has a modular design, which allows for axial offsets (with dedicated elbows) and adaptation of the route according to the architectural specificities of the building. This is one of the key advantages compared to a masonry chimney.
What is the Lifespan of a Triple-Wall Stainless Steel Chimney?
With proper installation and regular maintenance, a modular chimney has a lifespan of several decades. We use high-quality stainless steel (AISI 316L) and a thick layer of rock wool, which ensure high resistance to corrosion, thermal loads, and condensation.
Is a Stainless Steel Chimney Suitable for Wood or Only for Pellets?
A modular chimney is suitable for all types of heating appliances – wood, pellets, oil, or gas. It is crucial to choose the appropriate diameter and suitable system design based on the type of fuel and appliance characteristics.
What Does your Installation Include?
Our installation includes the entire chimney system with all associated elements, such as:
- all necessary materials (pipes, elbows, insulation, roof, branch for connecting the heating appliance, cleaning doors, brackets, etc.),
- flashings and sheet metal work,
- wall penetrations and air supply preparation,
- and professional installation in accordance with applicable regulations.
The scope of work is always adjusted according to the agreement during the inspection. The chimney is ready for safe use immediately after installation.
What is the Difference between your Chimneys and Competing Stainless Steel Systems?
Our chimneys have a thicker insulation layer than most competing systems, which means:
- less condensation,
- better draft
- higher energy efficiency.
Since we develop and produce chimney systems ourselves, we can custom-make individual elements and precisely adapt them to the architectural and technical requirements of your building.
Installation is generally carried out without an advance payment (applies to chimneys, except in exceptional/non-standard cases), and we provide a 10-year warranty on materials and workmanship.
Unlike many smaller contractors who operate locally, we provide services throughout Slovenia.
Can I Choose the Chimney Color?
Yes, we offer a choice of several standard RAL colors (e.g., anthracite, white, black, brick red…), and by arrangement, powder coating in a desired different shade.
How Long Does the Installation of a Triple-Wall Chimney Take?
The installation of a modular chimney usually takes only one day, and the chimney is immediately ready for use. All elements are prepared in advance, so work on site is fast and efficient.
Your presence is not required throughout the installation – we usually only ask you to be present at the start of work to jointly review the planned execution.
