installation Connecting the Flue Flue System The provision for satisfactory flue termi- nation must be made as described in BS 5440-1. The appliance must be installed so that the flue terminal is exposed to outdoor air. The terminal must not discharge into another room or space such as an outhouse or lean-to.
installation Warning The exhaust gas ducts must not be in contact with or close to inflammable material and must not pass throu- gh building structures or walls made of inflammable material. When replacing an old appliance, the flue system must be changed. Important Ensure that the flue is not blocked.
