GAS SUPPLY
A gas meter is connected to the service pipe
by the Local Gas Supplier or a contractor.
An existing meter should be checked prefer-
ably by the gas Region to ensure that the
meter is adequate to deal with the rate of
gas supply required for all appliances it
serves. Installation pipes should be fitted in
accordance with BS 6891. Pipework from
the meter to the boiler must be of adequate
size (22 mm) min. To within at least 3 metre
of the boiler (15 mm) min. can then be used
for remaining pipe work to the appliance. A
smaller size than the boiler inlet gas con-
nection should not be used. The complete
installation must be tested for soundness as
described in the above Code.
N.B. if the gas supply for the boiler serves
other appliances ensure an adequate sup-
ply is available both to the boiler and the
other appliances when they are in use at the
same time.
FLUE SYSTEM
The terminal should be located where dis-
persal of combustion products is not imped-
ed and with due regard for the damage or
discoloration that might occur to building
products in the vicinity (see fig. 6).
The terminal must not be located in a place
where it is likely to cause a nuisance.
The terminal must not be closer than 25
mm. (1 in) to any combustible material. For
protection of combustibles, refer to BS
5440.1.
Where a flue terminal ‘is installed less than
1000 mm. from a plastic. or painted gutter: or
500 mm from painted eaves, an aluminium
shield 1000 mm. long, should be fitted to the
underside of the gutter or painted surface.
Pluming will occur at the terminal so, where
possible, terminal positions which could
cause a nuisance should be avoided.
The flue must be installed in accordance with
the recommendations of BS 5440: Part 1.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
if a left or right side
flue is required, then a 90 Degree Bend will
be needed. (Not supplied as standard).
Available on order. If the flue terminates less
than 2 M. above a balcony, above the
ground, or above a flat roof to which people
have access, then a suitable terminal guard
must be fitted.
Fit only recommended flue terminal guard
by securing concentrically around terminal
with screws.

IMPORTANT:
The following notes are
intended for general guidance.
The boiler MUST be installed so that the ter-
minal is exposed to external air.
It is important that the position of the termi-
nal allows the free passage of air across it at
all times.
Minimum acceptable spacing from the ter-
minal to obstructions and ventilation open-
ing are specified in Fig. 6.
Note positions:
Due to the
terminal
design,
installation is possible with clearances less
than those specified in BS 5440, Part 1.

NOTE:
The flue must be terminated in a place not
likely to cause a nuisance.
