vaillant condensing boiler flue extension

[FNG]

why can't I call it a plume management kit?

that's what it is advertised as, several places list the same kit by the same name.

Surely if it's not a plume management kit they would call it something else?

What do you call it if not a plume management kit

FNG

I call it the same thing Vaillant call it.

Which is why Google is dangerous when people start to think that everything they find on the Internet is correct.

It's times like this I appreciate how doctors feel about self diagnosing Googleers.

Mrs FNG here (he's outside drilling loudly constructing aforementioned carport, sorry neighbours...)

He won't be installing it himself, believe me.

However it's nice to be able to know what to say to Grumpy Dave before we hassle him, he's an amazing plumber/heating engineer but communication and people skills aren't his strong points.
Will he know what we mean if we ask him to supply and fit a 'plume management kit'?

If Dave doesn't know then ring someone else

I understand people wanting to research etc but your best bet here is to call "grumpy Dave" (hope he doesn't read this forum ) and ask him to call round and have a look at what you need to do. He will be able to source the correct parts and install set up and test correctly

Vaillant refer the their 'plume management kit' as a 'variable terminal kit' , both are exactly the same and perform the same job.

Combustion should be checked/tweeked when carrying out any flue works especially with these types of gas train , you've been given sound advice so far so take HEED , hopefully 'Mrs FNG' will make sure of this.

You can and that is exactly what it is. sorry dan.

I bet our Bunny boys will beg to differ for reasons discussed in the threads in the "other" place .

I love it when you're being pedantic Mr Robinson.

It's what the open forum is for .

Vaillant are the only manufacturer that allows for shoddy terminal siting to be 'got around' when using their VTK.

one day you will learn Steel, it is for varying the terminal not deflecting the plume
