Step 4: Install flue and connect to appliance
•
Flue installation must meet the requirements of AS/NZS 5601.1:2013 and comply with all local council
requirements and be installed and certified by a suitably qualified person.
•
Refer to appropriate
‘The Fire Dept’ product specifications for specific minimum requirements.
•
A 25mm clearance from combustible materials, 75mm clearance from wiring and plastic pipes and a
minimum of 5mm from non-combustible materials is required when installing a flue system for any appliance
supplied by
‘The Fire Dept.’.
•
The flue installation requires a restriction free cavity from the top of the firebox (flue spigot) to the outside
atmosphere.
•
Air flow must be unobstructed from the firebox to the inner flue and from the heat shield to outer casing
allowing air to circulate from the firebox to the flue casings to the atmosphere.
