All measurements in millimetres
Note
•
All measurements are the minimum clearances required.
•
Terminals must be positioned so to avoid combustion
products entering the building.
•
Support the flue at approximately one metre intervals and at
a change of direction, use suitable brackets and fittings.
Key to illustration
1. 600mm distance to a boundary or surface facing a boundary,
unless it will cause a nuisance. BS 5440: Part 1 recommends
that care is taken when siting terminals in relation to
boundaries.
2. Internal/external corners. The air intake clearance can be
reduced to 150mm providing the flue exhaust outlet has a
300mm clearance.
3. The flue cannot be lower than 1,000mm from the top of the
light well due to the build up of combustion products.
4. 1,200mm between air intake and facing terminal.
5. Clearance no less than 200mm from the lowest point of the
balcony or overhang.
Installations in car ports are not recommended.
6. 1,200mm from an opening in a car port on the same wall
i.e. door or window leading into dwelling.
7. Using a Plume Management Kit the air intake measurement can
be reduced to 150mm providing the flue exhaust outlet has a
300mm clearance. Plume kits running horizontally must have a
10º fall back to the boiler for proper disposal of condensate.
For details on specific lengths see relevant boiler Technical &
Specification information.
8. This feature allows some basic plume re-direction options on a
standard telescopic horizontal flue terminal. 300mm minimum
clearances to a opening e.g. window. However the minimum
clearance to an opening in direction that the plume management
is facing, must be increased to 1,500mm. Where the flue is less
than 150mm to a drain pipe and plume re-direction is used the
deflector should not be directed towards the drainpipe.
