INSTALLATION
SECTION 3
13
Minimum Heights from Roof to Base of Flue Terminal
For all installations, please refer to the table below for calculating requirements. Detailed
recommendations for the air supply are given in BS 5440 Part 2, BS 6644 Clause 19 and
IGE/UP/10 Pt1.
The following notes are provided for general guidance only.
Ventilation shall prevent the heater environment from exceeding 32ºC (90ºF).
The purpose provided space in which the heater(s) are installed must have permanent air vents
communicating directly with the outside air, at high and low level. Where communication with the
outside air is possible only by means of high level air vents, ducting down to floor level for the lower
vents must be used.
For an exposed building, air vents must be fitted on at least two sides, preferably on all four sides.
Air vents should have negligible resistance and must not be sited in any position where they are likely
to- be easily blocked or flooded, or in any position adjacent to an extraction system which is carrying
flammable vapour.
Grilles or louvres should be so designed that high velocity air streams do not occur within the space
housing the heater(s).
The grilles should have a total minimum free area for the water heater(s) in addition to any other
requirements as follows:-
Where the heater is to be installed in a room the following permanent
ventilation is required:
5cm
2
per kW in excess of 7kW Net for installations up to 54kW Net.
For installations exceeding 60kW the following permanent ventilation is required:
Low Level (inlet)
540cm
2
plus 5cm
2
per kilowatt in excess of 54kW total Net input.
High Level (outlet)
270cm
2
plus 2.5cm
2
per kilowatt in excess of 54kW total Net input.
Where the heater is to be installed in a compartment, permanent air vents are required in the
compartment at high and low level. These air vents must either communicate with a room or
internal space or be direct to outside air.
The minimum effective areas of the permanent air vents required in the
compartment are as follows;-
