The Vapor Aymerich, Amat i Jover chimney is 41 meters high and 2.30 meters in diameter on the outside; it is built of the same brick as the rest of the factory. The chimney was the exit conduit for the boiler smoke. The hot smoke created air currents as it rose which drew the smoke from inside the boiler furnace to the outside.
