10 Twin Flue - Length, Preparation and Installation
10.12 Twin flue
The twin flue system is available as an option when the top
horizontal or vertical flue system is not appropriate.
The system can provide an independent horizontal air inlet
and flue outlet, horizontal air inlet and vertical flue outlet or
vertical air inlet and flue outlet via a concentric terminal.
The system is made up from accessories, see diagram 10.26.
NOTE: The air and flue outlets do not have to be equal
lengths. 2x45° bends can replace 1x90° bend if necessary.
The maximum permitted combined (air inlet + flue outlet) flue
length is 40 metres plus terminal assemblies, for each 90° or
45° x 2 bends fitted, the maximum length must be reduced by
1 metre, see diagram 10.25.
NOTE: When using 90° bends any horizontal run should be
inclined by a minimum of 44mm/metre (2.5°) towards the
boiler to facilitate condense removal.
Alternatively use 45° bends to avoid horizontal runs in the flue
pipe.
Multiple Boiler Chimney Flue Length
The flue length must be calculated and installed according to
the relevant standards EN 13384-1 and 2 (C43 flue systems
only) with reference to the table below and the manufacturers
instructions supplied.
The appliance maximum flue length must be included when
calculating the overall design of the flue system.
Terminal Position
The clearances for a flue outlet are given in the "Flue Location
and Ventilation" section.
In addition the horizontal air inlet must not be closer than 300
mm from a flue outlet on the same wall or 1200mm from an
opposing flue outlet.
