A minimum of 300mm must be provided at each end of the heater.
Top
A minimum of 1000mm must be provided above the heater roof. This clearance must be maintained for the entire

4.3.3 Installation of Flue Terminal
On one end of the heater you will find the flue outlet socket under an installer instruction label.
Remove the label and insert the flue terminal firmly into the flue outlet socket in the correct orientation to ensure the
flue gases are expelled away from the house (see Diagram 9 on page 9).
Note:
The flue terminal must be ordered separately when SP4 is used externally, Brivis Part No. B021385.
Note:
The flue terminal must always be installed before starting the heater.

• From a drain or soil pipe.
300mm
• From a flue terminal, cowl or combustion air intake.
• Below eaves, balconies or other projections.
• From the ground, above a balcony or other surface.
• To a return wall or external corner.
