Bushman - Chimney heat shield - Fastfold Heat Protector

Heat Protector - safe passage of the chimney through the tropics

Heat Protector is a lightweight and durable heat shield that increases the safety of using stoves in tents, tipis or tarps. Thanks to its perforated design, it effectively reduces the risk of overheating the fabric where the chimney pipe passes through the sheathing, protecting the fabric from melting, burning and even ignition.

It's a practical solution designed for winter camping and bushcraft enthusiasts who want to enjoy warmth and comfort without worrying about safety.

Effective protection against high temperatures

During heavy burning in the stove, the temperature of the chimney pipe can reach several hundred degrees Celsius. Heat Protector acts as a heat sink, taking excess heat away from the stack and dissipating it into the air. This prevents direct heat radiation towards the tent or tarp material.

The cover works particularly well for tents made of synthetic materials and tarps with a chimney opening, including models made of technical polycotton.

Better ventilation and safety

The space between the cover and the pipe forms a natural ventilation channel.

• It facilitates air circulation, which reduces the heating of the fabric,

• promotes the discharge of flue gases, including dangerous carbon monoxide (CO), which can be produced when wood is burned imperfectly.

The perforated, open design further enhances ventilation efficiency, which is crucial when heating the tent for long periods of time in restricted airflow conditions.

Simple installation and universal fit

Heat Protector is extremely easy to install and requires no specialized tools.

• It is put directly on the chimney pipe at the point of passage through the tropical or tarp.

• It has six pressure screws - Three each at the top and bottom - which allow a precise and stable fit.

• Fits pipes with a diameter of 4 to 8 cm, both segmented and rolling.

Once in position, simply tighten the screws with your fingers or a screwdriver so that the guard holds firmly even in high winds or changes in the position of the chimney.

Why choose Heat Protector?

• Protects the tent fabric from overheating and damage,

• improves safety when camping with a stove,

• supports ventilation and exhaust,

• simple and quick installation in the field,

• lightweight and sturdy design ideal for bushcraft expeditions and winter bivouacs.

Heat Protector is a reliable piece of equipment for anyone who values warmth and safety during overnight stays in the field with wood heating.
