3.3 Flue restrictor
If applicable, in the table of appendix B is also stated the size of a flue restrictor. This
restrictor needs to be fitted in the combustion chamber when placing the appliance.
Normally the smallest flue restrictor is fitted at production.
3.4 Terminal position
Verify if the required terminal position meets the local installation regulations regarding
disturbance, good functioning and ventilation:
•
The terminal must be located so that the outlet is not obstructed. If the flue terminal
is located within 2 meters of a footway path or where people could come into contact
with it, then a suitable terminal guard must be fitted
•
Terminals located close to shared walkways, footpaths etc. could be subject to legal
constraints and this should be pointed out to the customer before installation. If in
any doubt about flue location advice should be sought from local building control, or
if appliance-related, from the manufacturer including wherever possible a
dimensioned sketch
•
Avoid locating the terminal in close proximity to plastic materials such as gutters or
other combustibles. If this is unavoidable then a suitable deflector should be made.
•
Some important requirements for a good functioning are
•
The wall-mounted terminal has to be at least 0,5 m off:
o
Corners of the building
o
Below eaves
o
Balcony's etc.
o
The roof mounted terminal has to be at a distance of at least 0.5 meters of
the sides of the roof, excluded the ridge
3.5 Using an existing chimney.
You can connect the appliance onto an existing chimney. The existing chimney then
functions as air supply, where a flexible stainless steel liner (to BS715) of 100 mm performs
the flue function.
Requirements:
•
Any existing chimney used as an air supply must only service this appliance.
