Fit the Optional Vertical Balanced Flue

This Vertical Balanced Flue kit is only for use with the Ultra 2 Boiler and allows the flue to run vertically from the boiler,
terminating above either a flat or pitched roof.

The kit must be used with at least ONE, and up to THREE 1 metre flue extension kits, in conjunction with the horizontal
standard flue kit. The minimum flue length is 1.2 metres and the maximum permissible flue length is 3.25 metres.

To render the installation weatherproof, a storm collar and an adjustable flashing are recommended. The size of these
components should be to suit a 3 in. Twin Wall B vent flue system from:
