Notes
The tables below give guidance on the maximum lengths of air and flue gas tubes that may be connected. If a room sea-
led installation is being made utilising separate air and flue gas tubes, the lengths of both tubes must be added together
and not exceed the relevant value given in the tables.
The maximum length of any external section of flue pipe must not exceed 5m.
The radius of any bend used in the flue gas system must not exceed 87.5°.
Walls that are sensitive to heat should be insulated.
Construct the flue system in such way that no recirculation may take place.
When the boiler is op erational, it produces a white plume of condensation. This condensation plume is harm-
less but may cause some inconvenience, particularly in the case of wall terminal. As a result, roof terminals are
preferred. In a closed installation, roof terminals should be at the same height preventing flue gas from being
sucked in by the other boiler (recirculation). Outlets in recesses and near erected walls may also bring about
flue gas recirculation. Recirculation has to be prevented at all times.
For installation in UK please refer to installation guidance in BS6644 and IGE UP10.
