No part of a building, or any adjacent object, may be above the flue in a circular area of 3 

metres from the flue exit.

These heights are given as a minimum, and in actual practice the presence of surrounding 

structures,  trees,  fences,  etc.  may  necessitate  additional  flue  height  for  satisfactory 

performance.

INSERT FLUE INSTALLATION

Determine whether the flue pipe will fit vertically in the chimney from the heater to the cowl.  An 

adjustable bend may be required to offset the flue from the heater in order to clear part of the 

chimney structure.  If an offset is required, it should be fitted to the flue outlet on the heater, so 

that the flue pipe itself is vertical.  The flue pipe should not touch the masonry.

Check chimney for accepting flue is in sound condition, and fixing of outer casing or chimney 

cap flashing to chimney crest is achievable.

additional 200mm sections of flue as necessary to ensure minimum 1m flue height above roof is 

achieved (Refer Fig.2 for more detail). Ensure the 150mm flue pipe extends at least 180mm above 

the 200mm flue casing at the top. Trim flues if required.

Join  together  as  many  250mm  outer  flue  casings  as  manageable  with  swaged  ends  up,  fix 

lengths together with 3 rivets or self-tapping screws and slide over 200mm flue casing pipe from 

the top down to sit in position onto the 250mm section of flue transition atop the Zero clearance 

box. Add additional 250mm sections of flue as necessary to finish at the same height as the 

200mm flue liner. Trim last section if necessary.

Fit a suitable flashing over the flue and roof penetration hole to flash the outer casing to the 

roof, seal and fix flashing to roof and outer liner casing with an appropriate waterproof seal.

Place top spreader bracket in place and tighten, slide the cowl transition over the 150mm flue 

pipe until it rests on the top spreader, fit the Rain-Hat cowl. Note; Rain-Hat must be removable for 

cleaning. In high wind zones secure in place with a self tapper screw.

Where a flue terminates more than one full flue section above the roof penetration, it must be 

restrained with guy wires or support bracing bars for stability in high wind conditions.

The flue system should be vertical and without bends. If an offset is required, it should be as close 

to the wood fire as practicable and should not be offset more than 500mm from the centre line 

of  the  flue  stub.  Clearances  from  the  flue  pipe  to  combustible  materials  must  be  maintained. 

Restrictions or leaks in the flue system may reduce the draught, and, in severe conditions, could 

cause smoke to enter the room.

NOTE: The flue pipe shall extend not less than 4.6m above the top of the floor protector.

The flue cowl must be at least 0.6m above the highest point of the roof, if within 3 metres of the 

ridge.  The flue cowl must be at least 1m above the roof penetration if more than 3 metres from 

the ridge (Refer Fig. 2).
