Hi all,
Just moved into a new place, boiler is a Apollo Fanfare 15/30 which, whilst old, is working fine.
We had a gas safety certificate issued which confirms the flue is room sealed ("Flue type: R/S") and that the appliance is safe to use.
Whilst putting some stuff in the loft just now I noticed that the flue from the boiler appears to have a mesh opening where the diameter of the flue changes. Is this letting combustion gases into the attic space? Or am I missing something?
To be clear, I can see straight through the upper (larger diameter) part of the mesh.
The lower half has a solid internal wall.
