Any HETAS guys here?

[tweakyboy]

I need a little bit of information on a log burner for my house. Can you fit 2 x 45 straight off the top of the log burner? I need to keep the burner back into the fireplace as much as possible and would really like to negate the option of using a tee with soot cap.

Thanks guys :bucktooth:

You cannot preach the use of a gar engineer and not give out advice in a forum about gas. And then ask for hetas advice

Get an engineer around

Or if you are hetas you could pm your details to gasman or croppie ( )

I have a engineer coming around tomorrow for some advise, I would like a heads up thats why I posted in the arms instead of the solid fuel forum!

Its not illegal to fit stoves yourself, you can have them signed off by your council after its done.

Something like this, to avoid the lintel basically.

I would this it my be like the old atmo boilers. No bends within 600mm

But I don't know sorry

Yeah thats what I read in BR Part J, but as you know M.I's over rule them. I've just spoke to a installer via email and he said its ok to use 45's like that. I can see few installations online which have been done like that. I'll have to wait until I see the installer tomorrow. I will let you know what he says.

I think it can depend on the draw too

I'm sure you have to test solid fuel flues for a certain -mb flow

Same applies to solid fuel freestanding stoves as Gas. 600mm vertical flue off the top before introducing a bend.
