Is a chimney pot classed as a terminal or in every case do you need a bird guard on it.

Whenever I find a chimney pot without a bird guard on it I always NTCS it.

The amount of crap that I find down chimneys without cages on is unreal

nowt wrong with an open pot if alls well.

while we all know the chaos birds will cause there's no legal obligation to have a terminal unless its lined

A quick read through BS 5871-3 9.3.4 refers to Terminals ( 9.3.4.2 )
and Chimney pots (9.3.4.3) So a pot is something a terminal is fitted to.

As others have pointed out there is no required standard to have a bird guard
fitted so ncs, ar etc would not apply.
