Flue placement on new boiler installation

[Timothy Ranger]

I've just had a new Vaillant boiler installed yesterday to replace a 30+ year old Glowworm boiler and I'm wondering if anyone could comment on the placement of the flue.

Should be 150mm unless plume kit I believe

Thanks for the reply. Is that 150mm distance from the drain pipes surrounding it?

Yes

Yes

Is the Vaillant ecotec pro 28 a fanned draught I take it?

Thank you very much for your time. I'll speak to the installer when I get the invoice.

Did he make you aware before hand that the boiler should be moved ideally?

I quite like your use of steel rim as hose reel, not enough to do it myself mind.

Any pictures of the actual boiler install mate?
