1 In addition, the terminal should be no 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 frame.
2 Only ONE 25mm clearance is allowed per installation. If one of the dimensions
D, E, F, G or H is 25mm then the remainder MUST be as shown in brackets, in
accordance with B.S.5440-1.
NOTE: The distance from a fanned draught appliance terminal
installed parallel to a boundary may not be less than 300mm in
accordance with the diagram below

1. The following guidelines indicate the general requirements
600
for siting balanced flue terminals. For GB recommendations are
1200
600
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,
300
check that combustion products will not cause a nuisance and
300
that the terminal will not obstruct the passageway.

3. If a terminal is less than 2 metres above a balcony, above
2000
ground or above a flat roof to which people have access, then
a suitable terminal guard must be provided.
4. * Reduction to the boundary is possible down to 25mm but
the flue deflector kit (part no. 5111068) must be fitted.

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.
IMPORTANT:
• Under car ports we recommend the use of the plume
displacement kit.
• The terminal position must ensure the safe and
nuisance - free dispersal of combustion products.
IMPORTANT: If fitting a Plume
Displacement Flue Kit, the air inlet
must be a minimum of 150mm from
any opening windows or doors (see
Section 9.0).
