SECTION 2 - INSTALLATION 2.11 FITTING THE OPTIONAL ROOF FLUE KIT (Flat or Pitched) Note. A flat or pitched roof flashing plate (not supplied) is required before proceeding with the installation of this kit. This kit is suitable for both flat and pitched roof terminations, using a concentric flue to run vertically from the top of the boiler and terminating above roof level.
SECTION 2 - INSTALLATION 2.12 FLUE TERMINAL POSITION The terminal should be positioned so that products of combustion can safely disperse at all times. Pluming may occur at the termination so, where possible, terminal positions where this could cause a nuisance should be avoided.
SECTION 2 - INSTALLATION 2.13 ASSEMBLING THE ROOF FLUE KIT Determine the correct height that the flue should terminate above the roof. If after calculating or measuring the overall flue height from the top of the boiler, it is necessary to cut both pipes of assembly A, then ensure they are cut equally leaving the inner flue tube longer than the outer air tube as supplied.
