TABLE 8.1 FLUE TERMINAL MINIMUM DISTANCES
* Any termination of a room sealed appliance shall be in such a position as will not cause a hazard to the health of persons who
may be nearby or a nuisance to other persons beyond the curtilage. The height to the centreline of the terminal shall not be
less than 2m from occupied external areas.
Detailed recommendations for the flue system are given in BS5440-1 for equipment of rated input not exceeding 70kW net,
BS6644 for equipment above 70kW net and IGE/UP/10 for equipment of rated input above 54kW net. The following notes are
intended to give general guidance only.
8.2 APPROVED FLUE SYSTEM
The approved flue system is not suitable for use external to the building. If external routes cannot be avoided, a flue
system manufacturer should be consulted to supply a suitable alternative.
CP-M+60 – CP-M+120 boilers are supplied for connection to a concentric flue system. If twin pipe or conventional flue is
used, a conversion kit will be required. Contact Lochinvar Limited for further details.
CP-M+150 & CP-M+180 boilers are supplied for connection to a twin pipe or conventional flue system. If concentric flue
is to be used, a conversion kit will be required. Contact Lochinvar Limited for further details.
When used as a Type C (Balanced Flued) appliance, the approved, purpose designed adaptive flue system should be used.
Concentric and twin-pipe options are available, for further details please contact Lochinvar Limited.
When used as a Type B (Conventional Flued) appliance, a suitable flue system constructed of Stainless Steel or Polypropylene
with a temperature rating in excess of 120C should be used. Aluminium flue pipe must not be used on this appliance as it
may lead to a premature failure of the heat exchanger that would not be covered by the warranty.
Flue kits are supplied separately, please contact Lochinvar Limited for further details.
8.2.1 TYPE B

FLUE GAS SYSTEMS
The CP-M+ boiler is suitable for use on B
23P
flue gas systems; this allows the flue to run under a positive pressure reducing the
required flue diameter. For overpressure flue gas systems the minimum requirements of the flue gas material for can be
determined in a designation string according to the EN1443 (see table).
