2.7 FLUE SYSTEM
IMPORTANT
When installing a replacement boiler a new flue system is
recommended. However
re-using the existing boiler flue
installation
is acceptable if the installer checks and confirms:
• The flue pipe is the approved Marley/Polypipe/Terrain/
Wavin 50mm muPVC solvent weld flue system
• The flue installation is upgraded to the most recent flue
standards taking particular care to comply with flues in
voids
• A risk assessment is conducted to confirm the
effectiveness of the flue
• The existing flue will last the lifetime of the new appliance
DESIGN
Individual air supply and flue outlet pipes are used as
standard.
