2.11 Flue system.
Warning
It is essential that the products of
combustion are flued to the outside of the
building. Each heater must have its own
separate flue, with a flue diameter of not
less than is detailed in section 8 within this
manual.
The minimum vertical length of flue must not
be less than 3m. The flue should rise
vertically, and the number of bends should
be kept to a minimum.
Flue pipes below a height of 2m should
be guarded against the possibility of
being accidentally touched when hot by
personnel
It is strongly advised that BS 5854; 1980,
and BS 5440; parts 1 and 2, are used as
consultative documents when considering
flue requirements.
Care should be taken to ensure that the flue
terminal is not situated in a high-pressure
area, the proximity of buildings and other
obstacles which will influence this must be
taken into account, preferably at the design
stage. See figures 9 - 19.
Provision must be made for the
disconnection of the flue for inspection and
service requirements, and it is strongly
advised that where bends are fitted
inspection covers are included.
The materials from which the flue is
constructed must be non-combustible,
resistant to internal and external corrosion,
and be capable of withstanding the stresses
and loadings associated with normal use.
When designing the flue system the
prevention of the formation and entrapment
of condensation must be a key
consideration.
Twin wall or insulated systems are
recommended, as they tend to inhibit the
formation of condensates.
Where condensation is unavoidable traps
should be included to encourage the
condensates to flow freely to a point from
which they may be released, preferably into
a gully.
The condensate pipe from the flue to the
disposal point must be made from corrosion
resistant pipe of not less than the internal
diameter of the drain pipe.
If the flue passes through a wall, ceiling, or
roof made from combustible material then it
has to be sleeved so as to provide a
minimum of a 25mm void between the
exterior of the flue and the internal wall of
the sleeve. The maximum permitted
temperature of any adjacent combustible
material is 65
o
C.
The position of the flue and its terminal
should be such that it does not impair the
combustion process.
It should terminate in an exposed position
so as to allow the escape and dissipation of
flue gases without risk of their re-entering
the property through windows, ventilation
ports, etc. The flue should extend to at least
1m above the height of any object within
3.5m of the terminal.
Flue terminals should be fitted on all flues,
the terminal must be of the approved type,
and have outlet grilles on all sides giving a
total free area of at least double that of the
flue.
Caution
It is imperative that the flue should be
properly sealed where it passes through the
roof, this can best be achieved by using the
approved method of roof flashing plate and
cravat.
Note
It should be noted that claims made under
warranty and attributed to the ingress of
water may not be considered especially if an
approved method of sealing has not been
used, or if the design of the flue has not
made provision for possible condensation
problems.
