1.
Intake air and exhaust flue pipe openings of the Flue Pipe must be fully exposed to
outside. The Flue Pipe must not vent into a chimney, garage, basement, under-floor
or ceiling cavity, or any enclosed area, or be installed vertically, because the Flue
Pipe is a “Heat Exchanger” which causes condensate to form in the exhaust pipe,
and which must drain to outside. (See Fig. 2 Page 25).
2. Install Flue Pipe (See Fig. 2 and 3, Page 25.) Note the volume and temperature of
the hot exhaust gas that the exhaust pipe discharges to outside, is minimal, and
does not normally present any problems.
3. Before making a hole in the wall for the Flue Pipe ensure the wall cavity is free of
electrical wires, gas pipes and other obstacles. Drilling a 5 mm “pilot hole” from
inside enables the final hole (and any associated “mess”) to be completed from
outside.
4. DO NOT install Flue Pipe where the air supply or exhaust gas outlet might become
covered by snowdrifts, fouled by outdoor debris, or directly exposed to winds over
50 kph.
5. NEVER install the Flue Pipe
below the heater.
6. Total length of any Extension Pipe Kits (accessories L, M or S) between heater and Flue Pipe must not exceed
3 m, with not more than 3 × 90˚ bends.
NOTE: When using Extension Pipe Kits type L, M or S always insulate hot exhaust pipe with the insulating cloth
cover supplied. (More insulation may be required by Local Authority).
7. For all heater installations, the Flue Pipe must always be installed.
It must be horizontal with slight fall to outside ··· NEVER vertically.
