What is Flyugarka

Do not know what a flyvark? I hope we can help you figure it out. There are many words, such as an umbrella on a pipe, a hood on a chimney or a smokehouse. All of them, in fact, mean the same thing - flyugarka. The simplest flywheel, which serves to prevent birds and rainfall from entering the pipes, and also protects against moisture. Flyvarki made by professionals, usually are beautiful elements of the roof, which give the house a completely different appearance, as well as protect the pipes.

What are they needed for?

An ordinary person perceives a voyage as merely a decoration of the roof, however, a beautiful appearance is far from everything. The hood, besides an aesthetic function, must also be practical, namely, to protect the pipe or chimney. Without protection, very often moisture enters the pipes, due to which the upper part of the pipe is damped, which very quickly collapses as temperatures pass through zero. In case of correct installation, the hood strengthens the upper part of the chimney, as it fits precisely in size and has a special profile that does not allow the precipitation to fall over the shaft from the horizontal landing part. Many use smokers with a spark arrestor, insuring against getting on the roof of small particles of burning wood. Quality umbrellas, smokehouses, flyvarki protect your house from bad weather and prevent from trouble.

Which voyage to choose? Copper? Is it steel? Stainless steel?

For a long service and the performance of all its functions, it is necessary to very carefully approach the issue of selecting the material for its production. The most durable is copper. For fastening copper parts, copper or copper plated elements are also best used, since contact of copper with other metals generates a galvanic vapor and shows electrochemical corrosion. With a high-quality production, the copper smokestack on the pipe will last a long time, acquiring, over time, a natural patina for copper. In our time, you can find roofs made of copper that have served more than a hundred years. Flyugarki made of steel is much cheaper, and their service life is not less than 10 years. By purchasing stainless steel caps you will protect your chimney for at least 20 years and will not be superfluous in harsh operating conditions: under conditions of strong heating or in the sea climate. Unfortunately, it does not retain its original brilliance. The most popular is zinc-titanium. This is a modern material, which is very far from copper by its characteristics. Will last at least 50 years. It is very slowly corroded.
