We made our own, 4 inch peice of pipe with a cowl on the end and a bit of flashig / sealant, a fraction of the price ;)

what's the best hight for the chimneys to work best.  

 

some say higher the better and some say smaller the bettter,,i made mine,,6inch sewer pipe,, 4in inside the roof panel and 8in outside the roof with t piece on m8 hope this helps ;)

[Guest Owen]

I think the best hieght depends on what is around the loft. Buildings, trees and other obstacles to air movement. But in general, the higher the better. I am in the process of making vents from ply. They will be oblong and will run from low down in the young bird section, up into the loft space and exit through the side wall of the pine end. The idea is to ventilate the section without letting light in. I'll let you know how it works later, when it is finished.

hi the one we have made is in a 8x6 brick stock loft and it in the middle and stick out of the roof 10" we have used a hat of a drinker on the top about 3" of the end of the pipe if it was lower it slows the fan down   :)
