4.3. Connecting the boiler to a chimney
Connection to chimney should be performed only with consent of a
relevant chimney company.
The “KORDI-10S” boiler should be connected to a separate chimney
according to existing rules and standards. The chimney must provide
sufficient draught for evacuation of the smoke under any conditions. The
proper functioning of the chimney requires appropriate sizing since the
draught it produces affects combustion, boilers output and life span. The
chimney diameter must not be smaller than the flue outlet of the boiler (no
less than 127 mm).
Only heating specialist must calculate the precise
sizing of a chimney.
The flue outlet must be properly sealed to avoid gas leak. Avoid using
elbow joints. Before installing the chimney-to-boiler connection you should
observe the recommendations below (figure 5).
