Total Equivalent Length =
A+B+C+1x90°Bend
All vertical and angled runs must be included,
measured from the boiler adaptor (point X) to the
joint with the flue terminal (point Y). One 91.5°
bend or two 135° bends can be included without
reduction of the flue length.
If further elbows are required the flue length must
be reduced by the following amounts:-
1 metre for each 91.5° bend
0.5 metre for each 45° bend

2. Any additional "in line" bends in the flue system must be
taken into consideration.
Their equivalent lengths are:-
Concentric Pipes:
135° bend
93° bend
Twin Flue Pipe
135° bend
91.5° bend
The elbow supplied with the standard horizontal telescopic
flue kit is not included in any equivalent length calculations
NOTE: Flue length is measured from point X to Y as
shown.
IMPORTANT: All flue systems must be securely
supported at least once every metre. Suitable pipe
supports are available as accessories.
