Introduction
This Technical Specification covers vertical terminals for non room-sealed and for room-sealed appliances.
NOTE Room-sealed applications include balanced and non-balanced flue applications.
The characteristics of a terminal are dependent on its type, as declared by the manufacturer.
The type of terminal depends on whether the wind influence is taken into account and whether the application
is for balanced or non-balanced flue chimneys.
The characteristics are also considering different wind directions regarding the intended location of the
terminal.
