Flue distance from wall

[Rileyfinn]

How far should a flue be from a wall that extends up pass the flue I think this is classed as an external corner. I this cause the wall is a garden wall

I'm afraid the only place you are going to get that information is in the manufacturers instructions. Depends on flue type and boiler make/model.
Without a bit more info its hard to advise you

ok with it being the distance from a garden wall. I.e not a house is it more to do with the air intake being a problem with it being close to a wall?

 

[steve32]

Make and model of boiler would help

 

[Rileyfinn]

is for an ideal logic plus

 

[TCCHeating]

300mm. But it can be 25mm in some circumstances. You can find the instructions on the ideal website. Hope that helps

 

[Rileyfinn]

Thanks, 25mm sounds abit close

thanks is the situation showed described as an external corner?

 

[neiltheplumber]

That classed as an internal corner.

 

[Rileyfinn]

And its still classes as this with it just being a garden wall that's making the corner, not a house?

 

[TCCHeating]

Yes

 

[Rileyfinn]

do most new combis only require 25mm now?

 

[TCCHeating]

No. Just depends on the manufacturer. I know vaillant allow 25mm too. But worcester bosch say 300mm.

Ideal have obviously tested this extensively and they have decided that there will be no adverse affects by reducing this to 25mm
