white part of flue on show

[buckley plumb]

what are folks views on some of the flue showing - I know glowworm allow 600mm to potrude from wall and Worcester now allow theirs to be run externaly but baxi say non to be on show. gas safe don't approve of it

Makes you wonder as its all from the same factory basicly....

 

[AWheating]

all depends on the manufacturers instructions and if that part of the flue is UV rated. Dont listen to gas safe, if the MI state its ok then its ok.

Spoke to vaillant recently to query this, they are happy for their flue to be run externaly but you must silicone any joints to stop water getting in the air intake. Dont fancy it myself but to instructions so is ok.

 

[buckley plumb]

Worcester say the same called them

 

[lame plumber]

intergas say no no no

 

[AWheating]
