Above333 kW net heatinput the clean airact must also be ad-hered to and systemwill need approval oflocal authority.C(2,3) From adjacent non-opening window 1,000P (3,9) From structure or (taller) building without openings or windows 300*Q Above flat roof or intersection with pitched roof 600R(5) Horizontal from opening windows on pitched or flat roofs 900S(5) Above an opening roof light or windows on pitched roofs 600T(5) Below an opening roof light or windows on pitched roofs 2,000*Products must disperse freely and not make contact with building surfaces1. There should be no ventilation/opening in the eaves within 900 mm of the terminal.2. These dimensions comply with the building regulations, but they may need to be increased to avoid wall staining and nuisancefrom pluming depending on site conditions.3. It is recommended that an elbow termination is fitted to direct the plume away from the window.4. If the pipe is shielded from the heat, this dimension may be reduced to 25 mm.5. The flue through the roof should not be located within the shaded areas – R, S and T.6. It is recommended that the terminal should not be located below 2 m in any occupied space.7. Terminals below 2 m must be fitted with a suitable terminal guard and should be a minimum of 300 mm above surface level.8. It is the installer’s responsibility to carry out a suitable risk assessment to ensure the location of the terminal is safe and productscan freely disperse without causing nuisance or harm to persons. Refer to IGEM/UP/10.9. All flue terminations must be positioned such that the flue products can discharge freely from the terminal for rapid dispersal andcannot enter or re-enter a building, whilst ensuring they do not come into contact with objects or building fabrics as these could bedamaged by the condensate.I.3 Horizontal terminal positioningDimensions D, E, F and G:These clearances may be reduced without affecting the performance of the boiler. In order to ensure that the condensateplume does not affect adjacent surfaces the terminal should be extended as shown below.
