IMPORTANT
The vertical flue terminal is 1.0 metre in length and cannot be
cut; therefore it may be necessary to adjust the height of the
appliance to suit or use a suitable extension.
Connect the vertical flue assembly to the boiler flue spigot using
the 100mm clip, gasket & screws (supplied), ensuring the
correct seal is made. The flue support bracket (supplied with the
vertical flue kit) can now be fitted.
If the vertical flue requires extension/s or additional bend/s,
connect the required number of flue extensions or bends (up
to the maximum equivalent flue length) between the boiler and
vertical flue assembly (see fig. 14).
Ensure that any horizontal sections of the flue system have a
minimum 1º; maximum 3º fall back to the boiler (1º = 17mm per
1000mm).
NOTE
When cutting an extension to the required length, you must
ensure that the excess is cut from the plain end of the extension.
Remove any burrs, and check that any seals are located
properly.
You must ensure that the entire flue system is properly supported
and connected.
4.5.3 TWIN FLUE SYSTEM
The Vokèra twin flue system enables greater flue distances to
be achieved than that of a concentric flue system. It can be used
for horizontal or vertical applications, however the twin flue
system must be converted to the dedicated concentric flue kit
for termination. It is essential that the installation of the twin flue
system be carried out in strict accordance with these instructions.
GUIDANCE NOTES ON TWIN FLUE INSTALLATION
•
The flue must have a have a minimum 1º; maximum 3º (1º =
17mm per 1000mm) fall back to the appliance to allow any
condensate that may form in the flue system to drain via the
condensate drain. Consideration must also be given to the
fact that there is the possibility of a small amount of condensate
dripping from the terminal.
•
Ensure that the entire flue system is adequately supported,
use at least one bracket for each extension.
•
The entire flue system must be adequately insulated to
maintain heat within the flue system thereby reducing the
possibility of condensate production.
•
As the exhaust outlet pipe can reach very high temperatures
it must be protected to prevent persons touching the hot
surface.
•
The condensate drain pipe must be connected in accordance
with building regulations.

MOUNTING THE BOILER
The fixing holes for the wall-mounting bracket should now be
drilled and plugged, an appropriate type and quantity of fixing
should be used to ensure that the bracket is mounted securely.

HORIZONTAL TERMINATION (fig. 14)
The twin flue system must be converted to the dedicated
concentric flue kit for termination.
•
The horizontal terminal is supplied with a built-in converter
box and cannot be shortened.
•
A 130mm hole is required for the passage of the concentric
terminal through the wall.
•
The air inlet pipe must always be level with or below, that of
the exhaust pipe.
Depending on site conditions it may be preferable to install the
terminal assembly prior to fitting the twin flue pipes.
Mark and drill a level 130mm hole for the passage of the
horizontal flue terminal. Insert the terminal assembly into the
flue hole.
Push-fit the twin flue pipes onto the concentric to twin converter
box ensuring that the exhaust pipe connects to the exhaust
connection on the concentric to twin converter.
If necessary cut the plain ends (male) of the twin flue pipes to
allow connection to the concentric to twin converter.
NOTE
Before cutting twin flue pipes ensure allowances have been
made for connection onto the previous piece and onto the
concentric to twin converter. The last twin flue pipes must be
Once the bracket has been secured to the wall, mount the
appliance onto the bracket.
INSTALLATION OF TWIN ADAPTOR KIT (fig. 12 & 13)
•
Insert the exhaust connection manifold (A) onto the
appliance flue outlet.
•
Remove the blanking plate (located to the left of the appliance
flue outlet) and – using the same screws – install the air inlet
plate (B).
•
Using the hole in the exhaust connection manifold as a
guide, drill a 3mm hole in the appliance flue spigot and
secure the exhaust manifold connection to the flue spigot
using the screw provided (C).
•
Using the two holes in the air inlet plate as a guide, drill a 3mm
hole in each and secure the air inlet pipe/bend using the
screws provided.
The twin flue pipes extensions and accessories can now be
installed by pushing together (the plain end of each extension
or bend should be pushed approximately 50mm into the female
socket of the previous piece).
