9 Twin Flue - Length, Preparation and Installation

9.16 Twin flue

The twin flue system is available as an option when the top

horizontal or vertical flue system is not appropriate.

The system can provide an independent horizontal air inlet

and flue outlet, horizontal air inlet and vertical flue outlet or

vertical air inlet and flue outlet via a concentric terminal.

The system is made up from accessories, see diagram 9.25.

NOTE: The air and flue outlets do not have to be equal

lengths. 2x45º bends can replace 1x90º bend if necessary.

The maximum permitted combined (air inlet + flue outlet) flue

length is 14,3 metres for Betacom 24C, 11,9 metres for

maximum flue length must be reduced by 1 metre, see

diagram 9.24.

NOTE: When using 90º bends any horizontal run should be

inclined by a minimum of 44mm/metre (2.5º) towards the

boiler to facilitate condense removal.

Alternatively use 45º bends to avoid horizontal runs in the flue

pipe.

9.17 Terminal Position

The clearances for a flue outlet are given in the "Flue Location

and Ventilation" section.

In addition the horizontal air inlet must not be closer than 300

mm from a flue outlet on the same wall or 1200mm from an

opposing flue outlet.
