Operation Wool

We love wool! Since 2018, we’ve bought the Herdwick wool we use to make our Chimney Sheep® directly from Cumbrian farmers. To help support our local farming network, we ensure that we pay a fair price for the wool which is usually more than the market price.

Does what it says on the tin

Easy to follow measuring guide. Website good to navigate and easy ordering process. Item dispatched and emails to confirm everything. Fitting instructions good and it’s now in place and doing its job.

Didn't work ☹️

I'm sorry to say the chimney sheep didn't work in our flue. When you pushed it into the flue the sides buckled and still left gaps. Tried it several times, but it wouldn't make a seal ☹️

Sorry to hear it didn't fit. Sometimes with the round ones, you have to squish them a few times to make them a bit more malleable. Or you can trim a bit off the circumference to get a better fit. It sounds like it's a little too big for the flue.

Great product!

What a great idea for a company. The chimney sheep draught excluder is a brilliant product. So much better than other solutions for insulating chimneys. We have chimney that is hard to access and so the extension poles are so helpful. Allows great insulation whilst preventing damp issues caused by other methods of blocking off chimneys. Highly recommended.
