All vertical and angled runs must be included,
measured from the boiler adaptor (point X) to the
joint with the flue terminal (point Y). One 91.5°
bend or two 135° bends can be included without
reduction of the flue length.
If further elbows are required the flue length must
be reduced by the following amounts:-
1 metre for each 91.5° bend
0.5 metre for each 135° bend
