Appendix Inspection and maintenance work – Overview The table below lists the manufacturer requirements with respect to minimum inspection and maintenance intervals. If na- tional regulations and directives require shorter inspection and maintenance intervals, you should observe these instead of the intervals listed in the table.

Appendix Horizontal terminal positioning BS 5440-1 recommends that fanned flue chimney terminals should be positioned as follows: a) at least 2 m from an opening in the building directly opposite, and b) so that the products of combustion are not directed to discharge directly across a boundary if the products are likely to cause a nuisance to a neighbour or discharge over a walkway or patio.
