Flues and Ventilation 

 
It is advisable when installing the boiler to 
use an eco hometec P.P.S. plastic 
concentric flue system or the twin 60mm 
tube system. This not only ensures that 
there is sufficient combustion air, but also 
reduces room ventilation requirements thus 
increasing the number of possible suitable 
locations. 
 
The internal boiler flue system is 
manufactured in stainless steel  and the flue 

outlet is designed to be connected to an 
external P.P.S plastic flue system. 
 

8.1 

Maximum Flue Lengths 

The flue materials, flue insulation, the 
amount of vertical and horizontal pipe and 
the amount of bends incorporated 
determine the maximum permissible flue 
length.  The excess fan pressure available 
for overcoming the frictional resistance of 
the flue system is 100 p.a.
