Notes:
1) Should the flue not extend past the apex, the top of the flue should extend at least 400mm from
the roof (or 500mm in regions with heavy snow).
2) The installation of a flue into a carport is not recommended.
3) The flue terminal will get very hot when in use. Precautions should be taken to protect people and
animals from injury.
C7 Running the Flue
A 50mm clearance must be maintained from the exhaust flue for the first 1.2m of flexi flue from the
appliance (see diagram below).
Run the Ø100mm and Ø75mm flexible aluminium hoses from the cavity to the rear of where the
Horizontal or Vertical Powerflue Terminal will be installed. Allow enough stretch in the flexible alu-
minium flue to allow it to be able to protrude through the wall/ceiling/roof/flue liner to enable it to be
connected to the Powerflue Terminal. The flue should be expanded at each end in order for the flue to
be attached to the fire / powerflue. It is advisable to secure the flexi flue at regular intervals to prevent
vibration, movement and sagging. Steel wire or ‘builders strapping’ may be used for this purpose. Note:
The flexible flue is shipped in a ‘compressed’ form. Extend it to your desired length by stretching.
For information on running the PolyPro flue , see the installation manual which is supplied with the flue
components.
