Flues & balconies..

[clarky101]

Gotta price a job up in a first floor flat, at the mo it's just storeage heaters but the guy wants a combi....the only wall in the kitchen that the boiler can be mounted has a balcony above....now I've seen this before where the flue is extended past the balcony but it was a top floor flat and was thinking about the people above.... The guy reckons they don't use the balcony upstairs but he's only been there a week and it is january.....anyone come across this before & how would you get over this...
ps...the balcony runs the length of the flat...

There are guidelines in the MI'S

Copied and pasted this for an ideal logic.


n
Directly below an opening,
air brick, windows, etc. 300 mm
Below plastic / painted gutters 300 mm
Painted surface 300 mm
Below eaves or balcony 500 mm
Below velux windows 2000mm
Above or side of velux windows 600mm

hope this helps.
