enter image description hereI have an unsealed boiler flue hole like the picture:

I was going to acquire and use some vinyl sheet however I have just realized I have some cushion vinyl lying around.

As a temporary fix, will it be ok to use that? Or can the heat from the boiler cause the vinyl to heat up and be dangerous?

Thanks.

The vinyl would be OK to seal this but don't fit your vinyl so tight that it comes in contact with the flue. Leave a gap between the flue and vinyl, the pipe collar will over the gap.
