1. Flue or Chimney

1.1The construction of the flue or chimney system should meet the requirements of the Building Regulations with sizes as shown: -

1.2An approved, factory made system suitable for solid fuel use, complying with BS 4543: Part 2, may be used when installed to the requirements of BS 7566: Parts 1 to 4, the manufacturer’s instructions and the requirements of Building Regulations.

1.3New masonry chimney systems built with clay or concrete liners or pre-fabricated block systems should be constructed in accordance with BS 6461 : Part 1, and the requirements of Building Regulations, may be used.

1.4A flexible flue liner system may be used, if it is independently certified for use with solid fuel systems, and is installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions and the requirements of Building Regulations. If an appliance is being replaced on an existing flexible flue liner system, the liner system should be replaced, unless it can be proved to be recently installed and can be seen to be in good condition.

1.7Any existing flue or chimney system must be inspected and swept by a NACS registered (GB only) chimney sweep, to confirm that the system is structurally sound and free from any obstructions.

1.8Suitable access should be provided to enable the collection and removal of debris.

1.9Provision should be made to sweep and inspect the flue when the appliance is installed.

1.10No other heating appliances should be connected to, or share, the same flue or chimney system.

1.11Check the flue draught. This should be done with all windows and doors closed and any extraction fans in this or adjoining rooms running at maximum speed (see next section for additional ventilation requirements).
