Height of log burner vent
Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 2.55 PM
We are thinking about building a ground floor single story extension and fitting a log burner with a vent through the roof - anyone know the regulations on the height of this ?
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Hi,
Building Regs recommend a minimum flue height of 4.5m from the appliance, although this is dependant on the actual location to the building/windows/dormers etc. it will need to be higher if too close to these.
