A friend of mine has a problem whereby his downstairs neighbours have installed a gas boiler in the kitchen. They've installed it close to their kitchen window. The flats have identical layouts so the flue is close to his kitchen window, just down a bit lower on the wall.
He's told me that steam now billows around and comes in through his window.
I've had a quick look at the building regs (

page 43), and it doesn't seem to say much about flats. The regs seem to say 300mm min below an opening but there seem to be several boundary specifications at ground level. Is there a similar thing for flats?
I suggested to him that they have a vertical flue installed so it exits above his window.
