Is there no concerns regarding the frailty of glass? What would happen if the window was to be smashed leaving an unsupported flue and potential issues this would cause especially if installed through a bedroom window?
 
If the window smashed there'd be plenty of ventilation. :)

I take your point, glass isn't ideal but it isn't hazardous either and lets face it if the window broke you'd be extremely daft to keep using the boiler.

Having said that I think I would've used a plume kit.

Same thing what happens if you put a bag over the flue it’s all what ifs

Hi all. Hope you have all been keeping well. A while back I decided I only wanted to fit one brand of boiler and decided on Viessmann due to space for servicing and changing parts if ever needing to. I am finding my decision rather hard due to the different clearances on flue runs and cupboards...

Can anyone recommend a decent multi meter, preferably under a 100 pounds. It's for checking boiler components so I don't need a top spec one ....just easy to use and reliable. The fluke 115 looks good but its above my budget. My current socket and see one was great but it's developed a fault.
