6.0  FLUE SYSTEM 

 
Detailed recommendations for flue systems are given in 

BS 6644, BS 5440, IGE/UP/10.

 

All flue discharges for plant exceeding 150kW output 
must comply with the Third edition of the 1956 Clean Air 
Act Memorandum. 
The following notes are intended to give general 
guidance only. 
 

6.1 Flue System General Requirements 
 

The Hamworthy Sherborne boiler is designed for use 
with the following flue systems supplied by Hamworthy - 
see Figures 6.1.1, 6.1.2, 6.1.3 & 6.1.4:  
 
80/125mm concentric room sealed, balanced flue system 
for rear through the wall discharge. 
100/150mm concentric, room sealed, balanced flue 
system for remote discharge, horizontal or vertical – 
maximum length 7m. 
100mm separate air and flue ducts, room sealed, 
balanced flue system for remote discharge – maximum 
length 10m. 
100mm flue duct, for connection to an open flue 
(chimney) system – maximum length 10m. 
Flue systems should be designed with reference to 

BS 

5440

 

part 1

,  

IGE/UP/10

 and 

Third Edition of the 1956 

Clean Air Act Memorandum. 

Flue installations can be configured to suit a number of 
applications, see Figures 6.1.1, 6.1.2, 6.1.3 & 6.1.4: but 
must comply with one of the following options: 

Room Sealed. 

Type C13: Horizontal balanced flue. – Fig 6.1.1. 
Type C33: Vertical balanced flue. – Fig 6.1.2. 
Type C53: Separate intake and discharge ducts 
terminating in different pressure zones. – Fig 6.1.3.

 

Open Flue.

 

Type B23: Intake from ventilated plant room and 
discharge via horizontal/vertical flue. – Fig 6.1.4. 
 

WARNING 
The Sherborne boiler is a High Efficiency/
Condensing boiler and in certain conditions 
‘pluming’ will be visible from the flue terminal. 
Should pluming be a concern, the flue system 
design should discharge at high level.

 

 
Care should be taken to ensure that the flue is installed 
such that any condensation is continuously drained back 
to the boiler or any resultant low points in the flue system. 
Horizontal flue runs should be kept to a minimum and 
must be inclined at 2° upwards in the direction of the 
exhaust gas flow. All joints should be such that any 
condensation is directed back down the slope. 
 

6.2 Condense Drain 

 
The boiler is provided with a condense drain suitable for 
connection to 22mm plastic waste pipe (not supplied), 
which must be connected to a tundish (not supplied). 
Discharge piping from a tundish should be of a synthetic 
material due to the mild acidity of the condensate  (pH 3-

5), with all discharge piping having a minimum fall of 
30mm/m away from the boiler. Consideration should be 
given to possible freezing of condense water traps and 
pipework. This must be avoided at all times by routing 
pipework within the building, where possible. 

 
6.3

 

Design Waste Gas Volume and Temperature 

 
Where the boiler(s) discharge into an open flue system, it 
is recommended that the volume and temperature of the 
waste gases used for design of the flue system are as 
shown in Figure 2.2. 

 
6.4 Maximum Length of Flue Duct. 

 
For single boiler installations the maximum allowable 
linear equivalent length of straight smooth bore tube for 
both (air supply and flue discharge) twin duct, and 
concentric systems is approximately 10m and 7m 
respectively. This dimension relates to the distance 
between the boiler and the discharge terminal. The table 
below nominates the equivalent length of flue tube. 
Components can be combined in any order provided that 
the total equivalent length of flue does not exceed the 
maximum. 

Note:

 if the maximum stated lengths of flue 

are exceeded the boiler will not achieve maximum 
output.

6.5 Disconnection 

 
Each boiler is fitted with a telescopic appliance 
connector, enabling the boiler to be disconnected from 
the flue system.  

NOTE!

  The flue system must be self  supporting and 

not present a risk to people in or around the building. 
See 

Section 13:

 

SERVICING 

for further information

.

 

 

6.6 Flue Discharge 

 
The flue system must ensure safe and efficient 
operation of the boiler to which it is attached, protect the 
combustion process from wind effects and disperse the 
products of combustion to the external air. 
The flue must terminate in a freely exposed position and 
be so situated as to prevent the products of combustion
