Guidance Notes on Twin Flue Installations

Twin Flue Pitched Roof Terminal

The air pipe MUST NOT BE LESS than 3/4 of the length of the
flue pipe. See Fig. 7.

Cutting Extensions

All flue components contain rubber lip seals to ensure both ease
of assembly and excellent sealing.

Care must therefore be taken to 

remove all burrs and sharp

edges

from pipes which have been cut to non-standard lengths.

Expansion Allowance

When cutting and fitting flue pipes on extended flue systems,
allow approx. 5 mm clearance at the bottom of each joint - see
Fig. 7.
