FLUE AND CHIMNEY

The flue or chimney system must be in good condition.

It must be inspected by a competent person and passed for use

with the appliance before installation.

Products of combustion entering the room can cause serious

health risks.

The following must be checked:

— The construction of the masonry chimneys, flue block chimneys

and connecting flue pipe system must meet the requirements of

the Building Regulations.

— A flexible flue liner system can be used if certified for use with

solid fuel systems and installation complies with manufacturer’s

instructions and Building Regulations.

The flue liner must be replaced when an appliance is replaced,

unless proven to be recently installed and in good condition.

— If it is necessary to fit a register plate it must conform to the

Building Regulations.

— The minimum height of the flue or chimney must be 4.5m from

the hearth to the top of the flue, with no horizontal sections and

a maximum of 4 bends. Bends must have angles of less than

45 degrees from the vertical.

— There should be at least 600mm of vertical flue pipe above the

appliance before any bends are introduced.

— Ensure the connecting flue pipe is kept a suitable distance

from any combustible material and does not form part of the

supporting structure of the building.

— The installer must ensure the flue pipe diameter is not less than

the diameter of the outlet of the appliance and does not narrow

to less than the size of the outlet at any point in the system.

— Make provision to remove the appliance without the need to

dismantle the chimney.

— Any existing flue must be confirmed as suitable for the new

intended use as defined in the Building Regulations.

— The flue or chimney systems must be inspected and swept

to confirm the system is structurally sound and free from

obstructions.

— If the chimney is believed to have previously served an open fire

it must be swept a second time within a month of regular use

after installation to clear any soot falls that may have occurred

due to difference in combustion levels.

— The flue exit from the building must comply with local building

control rules.

— Chimney heights and/or separations may need to be increased

in particular cases where wind exposure, surrounding tall

buildings, high trees or high ground could have adverse effects

on flue draught.

— Do not connect or share the flue or chimney system with

another heating appliance.

Do not connect to systems containing large voids or spaces over

230mm square.

Suitable access must be provided to enable the collection and

removal of debris.

The flue must be swept and inspected when the appliance is

installed.

Flue Draught

The flue draught must be checked with all windows and doors

closed and any extraction fans in this, or adjoining rooms, running

at maximum speed.
