Condensing boiler

[Mark Hennessy]

I've seen that before elsewhere, but hadn't made any effort to commit it to memory because it doesn't cover my situation. I have a flue pointing away from the house, down the garden, on the rear wall of the house, but it is quite near to the boundary. As far as I can tell, there is no obvious recommendation or regulation to say how close to the boundary my flue would be allowed. Of course, if it was pointing at the neighbours, that would be different. Everyone I spoke to at the same concurred; and agreed that as it wasn't specifically mentioned, it's not a concern. That was OK with me - given that (a) on the front of the house the other neighbours have an outward-pointing flue that is even closer to the boundary than mine, and (b) if it came to it I wouldn't be too upset about retrofitting a plume management kit, I decided to stop worrying about it

All the best,

Mark
