Practical example of concentric flue gas discharge

Example

The figure shows a SGS 100 installation. The appliance must be fitted with 12m

of concentric pipe (C13/C33) and three 90 degree bends. We need to check

whether this configuration complies with the requirements stated in the table.

Appliance with concentric flue gas discharge material

According to the table, the maximum length allowed is 15 metres, and there may

be up to three 90° bends. Both requirements are fulfilled.

Specifications

Caution

For type C13 and C33 installations,A.O. Smith prescribes the use of a roof

or wall-mounted terminal, exclusively of a type approved for the appliance. Use

of an incorrect roof or wall-mounted flue terminal can cause the installation to

malfunction.
