Location of Boiler
The boiler must be mounted on a flat wall which
is sufficiently robust to take the weight of the
boiler.
Location
The boiler should be fitted within the building
unless otherwise protected by a suitable
enclosure.
Clearances
The boiler requires only the clearances shown
on Page 7, after installation.
Combustible Wall
The boiler is suitable for installation to a
combustible wall e.g. wood cladding, provided
that the flue duct is not closer than 25 mm to
combustible material. A metal sleeve should be
installed to surround the flue duct to provide a
25 mm annular space. Further guidance is
given in BS5440: Pt 1.

timber frame construction then reference must
be made to the current edition of Institution of
