3.4 Terminal Guard

A terminal guard is required if persons could come into contact
with the terminal or the terminal could be subject to damage.

minimum of 50mm clearance from any part of the terminal and
be central over the terminal.

The guard should be similar to that shown in diagram 3.5.

be fitted in accordance with the Institute of Gas Engineers

this boiler, cupboard or compartment ventilation is not necessary.
