    Vertical flue through 4 pitched roof

    How do you go about putting a vertical flue up through a roof where you cant get a roof ladder to hook over anything. They have a vertical flue in now and it's on a pitched roof but a side one if you get what I mean. I'm guessing scaffold up then unsure what to do next.

    Metallic clanking from boiler flue when boiler is off

    I've got a boiler installed in the bedroom. When it's windy/rainy outside and the boiler's off there's a metallic clanking/tapping sound that seems to be coming from inside the flue. I've posted a video here (). You can only just hear it in the video, but it's fairly loud and is waking me up...

    How can we block off an unused external boiler flue?

    We had a boiler in an old shed adjacent to the house. The flue is encased in a brick chimney stack that runs up the outside of the house. Some years ago, the boiler was moved inside, but the old flue remains. It looks like a chimney but is open at the bottom and unsightly. I am not sure...

    Flue - passing through adjacent property

    I've just turned a boiler off yesterday due to an escape but noticed the flue passed through the ceiling and into the flat upstairs. Now I know that this is allowed in existing installations prior to 2010 but this is only a few months old. It's slightly complicated in that the building is an...

    Sealing a flue through a fibreglass roof

    Has anyone had to do this? A roofer was installing a new fibreglass roof and said he cannot seal the flue with a flat roof collar to the fibreglass. Expects me to do the job. He is the roofer so surely he should know how to hey? But alas, I need to work out how this is done. Cheers

    Boiler flue temp readings?

    Hi guys. Today I’ve noticed when taking an fga the flue temp is coming up as a minus even though the boiler had been running all day. Any particular reason that it would be like that? Also had a +6.50mb on a fan pressure test. Boiler was only one year old.

    Worcester flue installations?

    hi folks. I'm just wondering when you guys fit a Worcester with a horizontal flue. Do you guys take the flue out of the elbow or just lower the flue fitting on the boiler if it's tight to get the elbow onto the grey socket? Random question I know.
