    FLUE SYSTEMS FIREBIRD ‘S’ RANGE 6-A Important Notice Because of the improved efficiencies of boilers under E.U. Efficiency requirements and OFT A100 Standard, it is necessary to pay extra special attention to flues and chimneys. The improved efficiency figures achieved by modern oil boilers are attained by using more of the heat (higher temperatures) heretofore allowed into flues and chimneys.

    OIL SUPPLY FIREBIRD ‘S’ RANGE OIL STORAGE TANK SITING Consult OFTEC Manuals It is very unlikely that a fire should start from a domestic oil tank, however it does need to be protected from a fire which may originate in a building nearby. For this reason, the tank should be located at least 1.8 metres from any building and no closer than 760mm from any boundary.
