NOTE: A chimney height of not less than 4.5 metres measured vertically from the outlet of the stove to the top of the chimney
should be satisfactory. Alternately the calculation procedure given in BS 5854:1980 may be used as the basis for deciding
whether a particular chimney design will provide sufficient draught.
