Grant Vortex Eco Utility Oil Boilers
5 If a rigid flue is used internally or externally, it must
be of the twin-wall type incorporating seals at all
joints, constructed with a stainless steel inner skin and
be suitably insulated and weatherproofed. Grant
recommends the use of the Grant 'Green' flue system
components for this application. Refer to Section 4.1
for details. The internal flue diameter for a rigid flue
for all models is 100 mm (4 in).
Note: As no flue adaptor is supplied with the boiler it
will be necessary to purchase the Grant CF adaptor kit
(Ref. CFA15/70) in order to correctly connect the
'Green' system flue components to the boiler.
If required, it is possible to use the white painted
single-wall straight flue extensions, adjustable
extensions and elbows from the Grant 'Orange' system
for the internal section of the flue system, see Fig
10b. These components can be fitted between the
boiler connector and flue adaptor. The flue adaptor,
to which the external twin-wall 'Green' flue
components are connected, can therefore be situated
just before the flue system passes through the wall.
Note: Grant 'Orange' system single-wall flue
components must not be used externally.
The maximum vertical height (from the top of the
boiler to the terminal) for the 100 mm diameter
'Green' system twin-wall flue is 8 metres.
6 Twin-wall flues are recommended for externally
run flues to reduce the possibility of the condensate
freezing in the flue.
7 No part of any flue system should be made of an
asbestos material; aluminium must not be used in
any part of the flue. Only stainless steel flue
components should be used.
8 If the draught conditions are satisfactory, the flue
should terminate with a standard cowl.
9 Refer to the locally applicable Building
Regulations, BS 5410:1 and OFTEC Installation
Requirements (Books 2 and 3) for further guidance
on conventional flue systems.
It is important to ensure that the flue system is sealed
and that condensate cannot escape. Up to 1.5 l/h of
condensate can be produced in a conventional flue
system.
Only use flue systems suitable for oil fired condensing
boilers.
Do not use fire cement. The use of high temperature
silicone sealants is recommended.
