The minimum acceptable spacings from the terminal to
obstructions and ventilation openings are shown in diagram

The boiler must be installed so that the terminal is exposed to
the external air.
Warning:
Do not obstruct the outside terminal of the boiler.

with the terminal or the terminal could be subject to damage.
If a terminal guard is required, it must be positioned to provide
a minimum of 50mm clearance from any part of the terminal and
to be central over the terminal.
