8.1 Horizontal Flue Systems
1. The standard flue is suitable only for horizontal
termination applications.
2. All fittings should be fully engaged. The approximate
engagement is 40 mm. Use the lubrication provided in the
kit to aid assembly.
3. For long flue runs allow 5 mm per metre for expansion.
4. Maximum permissible equivalent flue lengths are:-
Horizontal Concentric (60/100) 5 metres
5. Any additional “in line” bends in the flue system must be
taken into consideration.
Their equivalent lengths are:-
Concentric Pipes:
(60/100) 135° bend 0.5 metres
93° bend 1.0 metres
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.
NOTE: Horizontal flue pipes should always be installed with at least 1.5° fall from
the terminal to allow condensate to run back to the boiler.
