3.9 Flue connections
In order to ensure that the appliance functions
correctly and efficiently, the flue connection
between the boiler and the flue terminal must be
made using original components specifically
designed for condensing boilers.
Traditional flue components cannot be used for
conveying exhaust fumes from condensing boilers,
nor vice versa.
To guarantee a correct operation of the appliance it
is important to provide for horizontal air intake/flue
exhaust pipes a minimum slope of 2% downwards
(from the boiler towards the external wall) (see fig.1)
For each individual installation, air intake and flue
exhaust pipes must be protected with accessories to
prevent the penetration of foreign bodies or
atmospheric agents.
Flue Duct connection
Connect the flue to the chimney according to the following
specification:
•
Do not allow the exhaust flue to protrude inside the
chimney; instead terminate it before it reaches the flue duct.
u.
•
The exhaust flue must be perpendicular to the opposite
wall of the flue duct (fig. 2).
