• Standard flue terminal kits have an in-built fall back to the

boiler to drain the condensate. These can be fitted level

between the appliance and the termination position. All other

extended flues must have a fall of at least 44mm/m

The maximum length of the flue outlet is defined according to its

type (for example C13).

• Whatever the kind of flue system chosen, observe the

minimum distances indicated in the chart below to position

the flue terminals.

• To install the flue, refer to the separate flue instruction

supplied with your appliance.

• Explain these requirements to the user of the appliance.

a

If necessary, you must install a terminal

protection kit.

b

Caution! The connection between the flue elbow

and the flue outlet must be sealed.

In Gb the minimum acceptable siting dimensions for the

terminal from obstructions, other terminals and ventilation

openings are shown in diagram overleaf.

In IE the minimum distances for flue terminal positioning must

be those detailed in I.S.813 “Domestic Gas Installations”.

The terminal must be exposed to the external air, allowing free

passage of air across it at all times.

Being a condensing boiler some pluming may occur from

the flue outlet. This should be taken into consideration when

selecting the position for the terminal.

Carports or similar extensions of a roof only, or a roof and one

wall, require special consideration with respect to any openings,

doors, vents or windows under the roof. Care is required

to protect the roof if made of plastic sheeting. If the carport

comprises of a roof and two or more walls, seek advice from the

local gas supply company before installing the boiler.

b

If the flue terminal is positioned near a light

source insects may enter the flue system.

Where safe and practical to do so advise the

homeowner to check the flue outlet and clear

visible insects from the terminal end.
