8.1

Horizontal Flue Systems

1. The standard flue is suitable only for horizontal
termination applications.

2. All fittings should be fully engaged. The approximate
engagement is 40mm. Apply soap solution to the seal on
each fitting to aid assembly.

3. Maximum permissible equivalent flue lengths are:-

(60/100)

Horizontal Concentric (15/18 models)

15 metres

(60/100)

Horizontal Concentric (24/28/32 models) 10 metres

(80/125)

Horizontal Concentric (all)

20 metres

4. Any additional “in line” bends in the flue system must be
taken into consideration.
Their equivalent lengths are:-
Concentric Pipes:

135° bend

0.5 metres

93° bend

1.0 metres

Twin Flue Pipe

135° bend

0.25 metres

91.5° bend

0.50 metres

The elbow supplied with the standard horizontal telescopic
flue kit is not included in any equivalent length calculations

NOTE:

Flue length is measured from point (i) to (ii) as

shown.

IMPORTANT:

All flue systems must be securely

supported at least once every metre. Suitable pipe
supports are available as accessories.

NOTE:

Horizontal flue pipes should always be installed with a fall of at least 1.5°

from the terminal to allow condensate to run back to the boiler.

(ii)

(i)

This bend is equivalent to

1 metre

Total equivalent length =

A+B+C+(2x90°Bends)

This bend is equivalent to

1 metre
