FLUE TERMINAL LOCATION
Ensue that the location of the flue terminal complies with
the requirements of AS/NZS 5601, Fig. 6.2 which is
reproduced in part below.
The flue terminal should
be positioned away from
flammable materials.
Horizontal terminal clearances (Extract AS/NZS 5601 Fig. 6.2)
Refer to the ‘Energysaver
Space Heater Co-Axial
Flue System Installation
Manual’ for full details
‘Vertical Terminal clearances (Extract
from the ‘Energysaver Space Heater Co-
Axial Flue System Installation Manual’)
AS/NZS 5601 was current at the time of printing this
manual, but may have been superseded. It is the installers
responsibility to ensure that the current version of this
standard is used.
