On a few occasions I've lit the Morso Squirrel in the bedroom and the smoke alarm has gone off. I then noticed a witness mark caused by smoke on the ceiling next to the flue.
 |
| After removing the split aluminium dish that slides up to the ceiling I found that somehow the soft aluminium collar under it had become buckled and lodged on top of the flue allowing smoke to escape |
 |
| After prising the collar back out and pulling it back down over the flue pipe. |
 |
| The first layer of heatproof sealant, looks messy but it's already sealed and a few more layers will be added before I replace the outer collar. |
