3.4. CONNECTION OF THE FLUE
WES recommend that the Therminox range of stainless steel insulated
flue pipe is used with this product. A full range of straight, offset, elbow
and ‘T’ elements is available to overcome any obstruction which the
flue should avoid. The proper draught conditions in the flue is critical
for the efficient working of wood pellet boilers. The flue can exit the
boiler house/garage through the roof or through the wall by using a
bend on the flue. The combustion chamber works in negative pressure.
The smoke duct for the discharge of fumes will also be under negative
when connected to an efficient flue pipe as directed.
All sections of the flue must be capable of inspection
and removable to enable periodic internal cleaning.
Position the appliance bearing in mind all the instructions and
considerations above.
IMPORTANT!
All 90 degree changes of direction in the flue pipe
must be either removable or capable of inspection.
For locating the boiler against a wall ensure adequate
flue support using approved wall brackets.

THE FLUE PIPE RUN MUST NOT INCLUDE MORE THAN 2-3 METRES OF
HORIZONTAL PIPE MUST AND NOT MORE THAN THREE 90

ELBOWS
(INCLUDING ‘T’s). IT IS ALSO ADVISABLE NOT TO EXCEED 8 METRES IN
