Fig. 3.3 Termination of the flue pipe
The flue assembly shall be so placed or shielded as to
prevent ignition or damage to any part of the building.

Note!
In addition, the terminal should not be nearer
than 300 mm to an opening in the building
fabric formed for the purpose of
accommodating a built–in element such as a
window.
BS 5440–1 It is recommended that the fanned flue
terminal should be positioned as follows:
a) at least 2 m from an opening in the building directly
opposite, and
b) so that the products of combustion are not straightly
directed to discharge across a boundary.
1) Dimensions D, E and F:
These clearances may be reduced to 25 mm without
affecting the performance of the boiler. In order to
ensure that the condensate plume does not affect
adjacent surfaces the terminal should be extended as
shown in fig. 3.3.
2) Dimension H:
This clearance may be reduced to 25 mm without
affecting the performance of the boiler. However, in
order to ensure that the condensate plume does not
affect adjacent surfaces a clearance of 300 mm is
preferred. For IE, recommendations are given in the
current edition of IS 813.
