The longest pipe must be used to check the maximum length. In this case, the chimney pipe is the longest. This is 25 metres. This 25 metres is the sum of pipe sections 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The length of the transition piece can be ignored. The total number of bends used in the flue gas outlet and air supply is 8. The bend in the transition piece can be ignored. According to the table, 4.6 metres must be added for each bend. This brings the total pipe length to:

(4.6 x 8) + 25 = 36.8 + 25 = 61.8m.

This is less than the maximum length of 80 metres stated in the table. The installation therefore fulfils the requirements.

Warning

The installation should be carried out by an authorised installation engineer, in compliance with general and local regulations (1.3 "Regulations").
