NOTE: Due to the nature of the boiler a plume
of water vapour will be discharged from the
flue. This should be taken into account when
siting the flue terminal.
1. The following guidelines indicate the general
requirements for siting balanced flue terminals.
For GB recommendations are given in BS 5440
Pt 1. For IE recommendations are given in the
current edition of I.S. 813 "Domestic Gas
Installations".
2. If the terminal discharges onto a pathway or
passageway, check that combustion products will
not cause a nuisance and that the terminal will
not obstruct the passageway.
3. If a terminal is less than 2 metres above a
balcony, above ground or above a flat roof to
which people have access, then a suitable
terminal guard must be provided.
