11 Flue calculation
A simple way to calculate whether the exhaust
configuration is possible in combination with your
fireplace, use the “Faber Flue App V2”:
This is available free of charge and can be
downloaded via:
Internet:
Android and PC (Windows Store, (Windows 10)).
App Store:
iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Google Play:
Android smart phones and Android tablets.
Alternatively, you can use the calculation sheet
(see chapter 13).
The options for flue lengths and any flue restrictors
are defined in a restrictor table, see 11.1 till 11.5.
Start Length (STL), Total Vertical Height (TVH) and
Total Horizontal Length (THL) are used in the table.

Start length (STL):
The first part that is placed on the
fireplace and represents a certain value
(fig. 12.1, 12.2 and 12.3 A, N and F). You
can find this value in the upper row of the
restrictor table.

Total Vertical Height (TVH):
TVH is the height difference measured
from the top of the appliance to the
outlet. This can be measured or
determined in the building plan. For
clarification, see also the TVH indication in
the drawings (fig. 12.1, 12.2 and 12.3).

Total Horizontal Length (THL):
THL is the Total Horizontal Length and
consists of elbows and pipes entirely in
the horizontal plane. See elbows I, K and Q
and the elements H, J, L, M, P and R
(fig. 12.1 and 12.2).

Horizontal length:
The Horizontal Length consists of the
elements H, J, L, M, P and R
(fig. 12.1 and 12.2).

Elbows 90° in the horizontal plane:
Horizontal elbows are elbows entirely in
the horizontal plane
(fig. 12.1, 12.2 and 12.3 I, K and Q).

Elbows 45° or 30° in the horizontal plane.
Horizontal elbows are elbows entirely in
the horizontal plane.

Elbows 90° vertical to horizontal:
These are 90° elbows, which proceed from
horizontal to vertical (fig. 12.2 and 12.3 G,
O and S).

Elbows 45° or 30° vertical to horizontal
plane:
These are 30° or 45° elbows vertically
offset less than 45° (fig. 12.1 B and D).

Pipes at an angle of inclination:
These are pipes vertically ascending at an
angle of 30° or 45° (fig. 12.1 C). Fill in only
in combination with at least two 30° or
45° elbows in the vertical part.

Restrictor table:
See restrictor table for the correct vertical
(TVH) and horizontal length (THL).
In case of an “X” or if the values are outside the
restrictor table, the combination is not permitted.
Then adjust TVH or THL.
If a value is indicated, check that the calculated STL
value is not lower than indicated in the restrictor
table. In this case STL must be adjusted.
The value found indicates the width of the flue
restrictor to be placed (“0” means no flue
restrictor). Generally a 30mm flue restrictor is
installed (fig. 1.9-F), first remove hatch “G”.
