I have an oil worcester bosch combi-boiler with a flue coming out the top, bending through 90 degrees and then passing through the wall and venting.

Problem is the plume of steam from it then wafts across the back of the house blocking the view.

My questions:-
how many bends can you put in the flue?
after 1 90 degree bend, after it goes out the wall,can I put another 90 degree bend, go up a bit and put a vertical flue end on it? By then it will be above the roof line.

worcesters do plume management kits, but best done by a corgi person
 
Plume management. Not on oil they don't.

However the late balanced flue Worcesters can be fitted with an external concentric balanced flue.

The distances and bends are in the WORCESTER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS, downloadable from their excellent web site.

External flues are a little complex because the dimensions are not compatible with internal Oilfit flue. .

You might be well advised to get your installer to price this work.

I've looked on the website - it gives maximum lengths of flues with examples, all only having a single 90 degree bend. I was hoping that this didn't indicate the only possibilities, only examples.
I am coming to the solution of putting a flue straight up and through the garage roof. More costly, but gets it out of the way.

Thanks anyway.
