Instructions for the installer
Connection to the chimney
The chimney is indispensable for correct boiler operation; it must therefore comply with the following requirements:
• it must be made of waterproof material and be resistant to flue gas temperature and related condensate;
• it must have appropriate mechanical characteristics and low thermal conductivity;
• it must be perfectly sealed;
• it must be as vertical as possible and the roof terminal is to have a cap ensuring efficient and constant flue gas exhaustion;
• it must not be less wide than the boiler flue gas outlet diameter; squared or rectangular section chimneys must bear an internal section,
10% larger than the section connected to the boiler draught excluder device;
• starting from the boiler, the duct connecting to the chimney is to follow a vertical direction and must be long not less than twice its
diameter before joining the chimney.

Direct emission into the atmosphere
Natural draught boilers can vent flue gas directly into the atmosphere
via a duct which goes through the outside walls of the building and
ends with an anti-wind gust device terminal.
The flue gas exhaust duct is to comply with the following
requirements:
• its sub-horizontal part inside the building must be as short as
possible (not longer than 1,000 mm);
• it is not to have more than 2 direction changes;
• it can host only one single boiler flue gas exhaust system;
• its section, which is passing through the wall is to be protected
by a sheath duct; the part of the sheath duct facing the inside of
the building is to be sealed, while the part facing outwards is to
be left open;
• its end section, on which the draught terminal is to installed, is to
protrude from the wall of the building for a length of a least twice
the diameter of the duct;
• the terminal must be no less than 1.5 meters above the connection
for the flue gas venting duct on the boiler.
