Open flue terminations
5U (uncorrected chimney height) calculations for assessing flue height and aggregated groups of flue terminals
Reference
5U (5 x Uncorrected chimney
height)
Where a group of individual flues terminate close to each other and within 5U they must be aggregated, and the

value used for the flue height calculation.
Flue termination height above structures (distance X) for appliances up to 333 kW (Refer to Figure 15)
IGEM Calculation used
Distance X –

(Distance X = 1.5225 x (net heat input kW) + 493.43)
•
For terminals fitted to a pitched roof the end-piece termination (as shown in
surface when measured horizontally and at least distance 'X' above the roof line (See table above for correct 'X' value
calculations).
For terminals fitted to a flat roof (where there is no general access) the end-piece termination (Base of the grill or terminal
•
position) should be located at least distance 'X' (See table above) above the roof line at the point where it exits the roof (See
Figure
14).
•
Where the terminal is located within 2.5m of an adjacent structure the terminal should be at least distance 'X' above the structure
(See table above for distance 'X' and reference
Terminations for Ridged and flat roof configurations
Please note: Flue diameters specified 170mm or less require a terminal that is designed to minimize the ingress of rain or birds.
