with BS EN 1858. In accordance with BS EN 1858, pre-cast flues built with
directly plastered faces (front or rear) are not correctly installed as to ensure
proper operation with any type of gas fire. In some instances of this flue
construction, temperature cracking of surface plaster may occur through no
fault of the appliance. An air gap or some form of insulation material should
be installed to prevent normal flue temperatures from damaging wall
surfaces.
