Project Brief
During a routine PPM survey at Blessed trinity college, it was noted that the existing boiler flues and liners where in poor condition and should be addressed as soon as possible. Due to this, we were asked to design new flue systems that would comply with the regulations set out in Gas safe and IGEM/UP/10 whilst also complying with clean air act. Before any installation could occur, we completed a drone survey to give us a complete survey of chimney at high level to help us with designing a compliant flue system.
Materials Used
- Plastic MG 100mm flue
- Plastic MG 200mm flue
- Dinak DWJ 350mm 316L stainless steel twin wall flue.
Result
John J Doyle Ltd were asked to design, supply and install new flue system to suit the 12No. New gas fired boilers. A flue sizing calculation was carried out by John J Doyle to determine a common flue size for the header, which would help us design the best possible solution for the flue.
Due to the results of the calculation and after our drone survey we were unable to reuse the existing brick chimney stack. In order to comply with regulations and clean air act, the best solution was to install a new 16M free standing support structure.
Due to the nature of this project, we had to complete during term time. John J Doyle safely worked with the school, representatives of the EA and Irwin M&E to create a safe walkway for pupils and teachers during the installation works.
The project was complete within the 10 days as planned, with minimal disruption to the day to day running of the school.
