The minimum flue height is 2.4 metres. The flue cowl should be no lower than 900mm vertically from the roof
line and a 2 metre horizontal clearance from any part of the building see cowl clearance drawing.
Flue requirements
There are two flue spigots on top of the insulation kit. Two 150mm/200mm x 1200mm long sections of flue are
connected to the spigots. The two flues are then connected to a special Y piece, this is a transition to join the
two flues into one. From the Y piece a single 250/300mm flue kit is used with a 250/300 cowl.
The Real Fire 1500 has Two Flues
Firstly the firebox and flue are installed and then the burner is installed. The burner may be installed at a later date
when all the construction work is complete and the hearth is in place.
The firebox is placed on the platform provided and the gas pipe is pushed through the hole at the right hand rear
of the firebox (RH from the front of the fire).
This pipe is to be connected to the burner but may be left sealed if the burner is to be installed later. Leave enough
pipe to connect the burner. Once the firebox is in place ensure it is level. Usually the firebox is positioned
centrally and so that the flange around the firebox opening is left forward of the timber framing by 10mm, this is
to allow for giboard to be fixed behind the flange.
