•
Ensure flue components are positioned so they do not obstruct the opening/closing of
doors or removal/re-fitting of panels on the appliance.
•
Ensure a seal is present, intact and correctly placed at ALL flue joints. The use of
lubricant can help seals to remain in their recess during installation – NEVER assemble a
flue component without the manufacturers seal in place.
•
Flue pipes must be installed with a minimum slope of 45
⁰
from horizontal in order to
minimise resistance in the flue system.
•
Never deviate more than 45
⁰
in a single bend e.g. by connecting two 45
⁰
bends.
•
Keep female ends of flue components down and male ends up to avoid water ingress.
•
Avoid shortening the flue extension starter piece except to connect a straight extension
piece. Connection of a 45
⁰
bend to a shortened flue extension starter piece is NOT
permitted.
•
Make clean square cuts to flue extension parts if they need to be reduced in length,
taking care not to cause damage by the clamping and cutting methods used.
•
Always remove swarf form cut flue sections to avoid build-up of ash etc during operation
of the appliance.
•
Never attempt to fabricate bespoke flue components e.g. bends at irregular angles from
extension pieces by cutting, bending, welding or any other process
•
Never modify the flue terminal
•
Always install the flue terminal in the vertical orientation.
•
Never drill or use screws, rivets or any other fixing that would pierce the 80mm diameter
parts of any flue component and thus permit leakage of flue gases
•
Ensure there are no blockages or defects on flue components prior to installation
•
Use appropriate bracketry (See Figure 81) to adequately secure all sections of an
extended flue with a maximum support spacing of 1.5m between brackets.
•
The uppermost flue support bracket on an extended flue must be positioned within 1m
from the top of the flue terminal.
•
Always secure the flue terminal using the fixing screws provided (Refer to Figure 74)
•
Once assembled, the extended flue must be checked for airtightness and security
Warning
•
Isolate the mains electricity supply to the appliance before installation
•
Do not stand on top of the appliance during installation. The load bearing capacity of the
top surfaces is not adequate.
