8.1.2 Condensing Boiler Flue Kits
FIRE SAFETY
As with a metal flue system, where a plastic flue system is used within a building
which is „compartmentalised‟ as defined by the Building Regulations, care must be
taken to ensure that the installation of the flue does not contravene the
Regulations and create a safety risk.
In particular, where the flue passes through a „compartment floor‟ or „compartment
wall‟ as defined by the Building Regulations it must be enclosed so as to create a
„protected shaft‟ as defined by the Regulations. Consult your local Building Control
department for detailed guidance.
In general, a dwelling (such as a private household) will not be
„compartmentalised‟ and the use of a plastic flue system is no different from that of
a metal flue system. If in doubt, consult your local Building Control department.
FIT FLUE THERMOSTAT
1. Remove the test point bolt from the boiler. Apply PTFE tape to the flue
thermostat then screw it into the test point. Tighten by hand only.
CONNECT THERMOSTAT
2. Remove the red burner cover. Isolate the electrical supply then open the
control box cover. Disconnect the live (brown) wire of the burner power cable and
connect it to the corresponding (large) connector of the flue thermostat cable.
3. Connect the other connector of the flue thermostat cable to the live terminal of
the control box. Close and secure the cover.
