When installing the heater as a Type C
53
appliance, it should be noted that the terminals must not be
installed on opposite sides of the building or closer than 500mm apart (centre to centre).
To install a Type C
53
terminal or air inlet, the procedure for either a Type C
13
(horizontal) or a Type C
33
(vertical)
terminal should be followed noting that the annular space of the terminal should be sealed off

FLUE TERMINAL GUARDING
If a horizontal flue terminal is to be fitted less than 2 metres from ground level or in a location where it can be
touched from a window, door or balcony, a terminal guard must be fitted. An approved terminal guard, Lochinvar
Part No. FTG0001 is available; please contact Lochinvar Limited for further information.
The terminal guard is constructed from plastic-coated mild steel and is suitable for use on condensing appliances
only. The guard should be installed centrally around the terminal ensuring a gap of at least 50mm between the
guard and terminal is maintained.
