3 General requirements

3.5.1 

Flue termination

The following details refer to both flue systems.

a. The terminal must be located where the combustible  

  substances can escape freely at all times.

b. A plume of water vapour will sometimes be visible  

  from the flue terminal. Positions where this could be  

  a nuisance should be avoided.

c. If the terminal is fitted less than 2 m above a balcony,  

  above ground or above a flat roof to which people  

  have access then a suitable terminal guard must be  

  provided and fitted (made by Tower Flue Components,  

  Tonbridge, TN9 1TB, Model K3, plastic coated).

   Note!

   

Vertical flues must not terminate within

   

600mm of an openable window, air vent or  

   

any other ventilation opening.

The flue assembly shall be so placed or shielded as to 

prevent ignition or damage to any part of the building.

Terminal position

mm

A

Directly below an opening, above an opening or 
horizontal to an opening, air brick, opening window, 
etc.

300

B

Below gutters, soil pipes or drain pipes

75

C

Below eaves

200

D

Below balconies

200

E

From vertical drain pipes and soil pipes

25

F

From internal or external corners

300

G

Above ground, roof or balcony

300

H

From a surface facing a terminal

600

I

From a terminal facing a terminal

1200

J

From an opening in the car port (e.g. door, window) 
into the dwelling

1200

K

Vertically from a terminal on the same wall

1500

L

Horizontally from a terminal on the same wall

300

M Distance from adjacent wall for vertical Flue

500

   Note!

   

In addition, the terminal should not be nearer  

   

than 150 mm to an opening in the building  

   

fabric formed for the purpose of

   

accommodating a built-in element such as a  

   

window.

BS 5440–1: It is recommended that the fanned flue 

terminal should be positioned as follows:

a)  at least 2 m from an opening in the building directly  

  opposite, and

b) so that the products of combustion are not directed  

  to discharge across a boundary.

1)  Dimensions B, C and D: These clearances may be  

  reduced to 25 mm without affecting the  

 

  performance of the boiler. In order to ensure    

  that the condensate plume does not affect adjacent  

  surfaces the terminal should be extended as shown  

  in Fig. 3.7.

2) Dimension F:

  This clearance may be reduced to 25 mm without  

  affecting the performance of the boiler. However,  

  in order to ensure that the condensate plume does  

  not affect adjacent surfaces a clearance of 300 mm  

  is preferred. For IE, recommendations are given in  

  the current edition of IS 813.

Table 3.1 Flue terminal position for a fan assisted  

 

   concentric flue

3.5.2  Internal flue installation

The flue can be installed from inside the building when 

access to the outside wall face is not practicable.

3.6 

Air supply

Detailed recommendations for air supply are given in 

BS 5440: Part 2.

It is not necessary to have an air vent in the room or 

internal space in which the boiler is installed.

3.7 

Cupboard or compartment ventilation

The boilers are very high efficiency appliances.

As a consequence the heat loss from the appliance 

casing during operation is very low. For cupboard or 

compartment installations it is therefore not necessary 

to provide any high or low level permanent air vents 

for cooling purposes.
