INSTALLATION 

 

FLUE SYSTEM

 

 
The flue system must be installed by authorized personnel only, in accordance with the regulations in force and 
the manufacturer’s prescriptions. 
It must comply to one of the boiler classes listed on the data plate (located on the boiler side). 
Rinnai provides a specific flue system for the boiler and the appliance must not be installed or operate without 
the provided flue system. 
The flue system must be of a “split type”, Ø80mm separate pipes for air and exhaust

 

 
 

Length of the flue system 

The exhaust pipe generally operates in a positive pressure condition, for this reason it must be installed 
carefully. 
The maximum equivalent length is: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

type C 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

type B 

 

 

(room sealed, forced flue application):   

 

(open chamber, forced flue application): 

    - 

exhaust: 

25m       - 

exhaust: 

30m 

 

 

 

 

- air inlet: 5m 

 

Each bend must be considered as an equivalent pipe length that must be deducted from the allowed 
extension

 

 

- 90° bend: 1.5m;   

- 45° bend: 0.5m. 

 

Rinnai flue system 

Only the Rinnai flue system is approved and suitable for the use with the boiler: 
FOT-KS080-001  Extension Kit  L=1000mm Ø80mm 
FOT-KS080-004  2x45° bend Kit  Ø80mm 
FOT-KS080-005  1x90° bend Kit  Ø80mm 
FOT-KS080-007  Horizontal flue kit

 

 (1x90° bend + L=750mm extension pipe + wall flue terminal - Ø80mm) 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 FOT-KS080-001 

   FOT-KS080-004 

   FOT-KS080-005 

  FOT-KS080-007 

 

Flue system installation 

 

ATTENTION

: prior to assemble the flue system make sure that each part is not damaged: install 

intact parts only. 
The use of faulty components or an improper installation could result in serious injuries and 
material damage

.

 

 
All horizontal sections >1.5m need a slope of at least 2.5°-3° 



towards the boiler for the exhaust pipe; 



outwards for the air inlet pipe. 

 
The flue system must be installed according to the picture on the 
right: 
inserting (

40mm) the pipe (1) in the appropriate location (2), 

fastening the connection seal and making sure that there are no 
leakage

s

 

ATTENTION

if the total equivalent length of the flue system (air inlet + 
exhaust) exceeds 15m, the SW1 dip switch nr5 of the PCB 
must be changed; 
if the inlet air is from indoor room, the SW2 dip switch nr8 
of the PCB must be changed. 
To make the new setting effective it is necessary to follow 
the procedure described in the PCB “Dip Switch setting” 
section - Maintenance part of the manual.
