  • Wood roof

    I'm planning on putting a wood framed roof on my oven, 100mm*50mm studs, covered with plywood/OSB with a fibreglass coating on top.

    I have a couple of inches of ceramic fiber blanket on top of the brick dome, then about 3 inches of vermicrete. Is this enough to stop any wood above catching fire?

    The closest part of the oven to the roof will be the chimney - single row insulating firebrick surrounding a stainless steel flue pipe.

    Any thoughts? The oven isn't close to the house so if the roof went on fire it wouldn't be life threatening but it'd be a bit of a pain in the ass!

    Any thoughts?

    Cheers,

    Chris
