Aviation Lighting
Hoffmann can provide aviation lighting and follows the FAA set guidelines for obstruction lighting (FAA Circular AC 707460-1K Obstruction Marking Lighting) on concrete chimneys and steel stacks.
Chimney Caps
Hoffmann chimney cap designs are based on the chemical makeup of the flue gas.
The flue gas flow rates determine the outlet size.
Steel Breeching and Ductwork
A chimney breeching is a small segment of ductwork leading from the exterior of the shell to the interior of the liner. Hoffmann’s engineering staff will provide proper layout and detailing of a breeching system. The layout and detailing will include ductwork sizing to compensate for the desired flow.
Lightning Protection
Hoffmann’s chimney or stack design is based on the NFPA780 standard for Installation and the National Electrical Code.
Access Lighting
Since most chimneys and stacks operate 24 hours a day, it is necessary for periodic inspections. Access lighting aids in the ability to thoroughly inspect and monitor the chimney stack operation during insufficient daylight or at night. The National Electrical Code is followed for all installations.
