Note
Vertical flues must not terminate within
600 mm of an openable window, air vent or any
other ventilation opening.
The flue assembly shall be so placed or shielded as to
prevent ignition or damage to any part of the building.

Note
In addition, the terminal should not be nearer
than 150 mm to an opening in the building fab-
ric formed for the purpose of accommodating a
built-in element such as a window.
BS 5440–1: It is recommended that the fanned flue ter-
minal should be positioned as follows:
a) at least 2 m from an opening in the building directly
opposite, and
b) so that the products of combustion are not directed
to discharge across a boundary.
1) Dimensions B, C and D:
These clearances may be reduced to 25 mm without
affecting the performance of the boiler. In order to
ensure that the condensate plume does not affect
adjacent surfaces the terminal should be extended
as shown in Fig. 3.9.
2) Dimension F:
This clearance may be reduced to 25 mm without
affecting the performance of the boiler. However, in
order to ensure that the condensate plume does not
affect adjacent surfaces a clearance of 300 mm is
preferred. For IE, recommendations are given in the
current edition of IS 813.

3.8 Air
supply
Detailed recommendations for air supply are given in
BS 5440: Part 2.
It is not necessary to have an air vent in the room or
internal space in which the boiler is installed.
Cupboard or compartment ventilation
The boilers are very high efficiency appliances. As a
consequence the heat loss from the appliance casing
during operation is very low. For cupboard or compart-
ment installations it is therefore not necessary to pro-
vide any high or low level permanent air vents for cool-
ing purposes.
3.9 Electrical
supply
A 230 V, ~ 50 Hz single phase electricity supply fused to
3 Amp. must be provided in accordance with the latest
edition of BS 7671 (IEE Wiring Regulations) and any
other local regulations that may apply. In IE reference
should be made to the current edition of the ETCI rules.
The method of connection to the mains electricity sup-
ply must provide a means of completely isolating the
boiler and its ancillary controls. Isolation is preferably
by the use of a fused three pin plug and unswitched
shuttered socket outlet, both complying with the
requirements of BS 1363. Alternatively, a 3 Amp. fused
double pole switch with a 3 mm contact separation on
both poles may be used.
Danger!
This appliance must be earthed.
