Chimneys - Design, installation and commissioning - Part 1: Chimneys and connecting flue pipes for non-room sealed combustion appliances
This document describes the method of specifying the design, installation and labelling criteria for system chimneys, construction of custom-built chimneys, the relining of existing chimneys and connecting flue pipes for non-room sealed combustion appliances as well as the use of chimney products. It also gives information on commissioning of an installed chimney.
This document applies to chimneys which are subject to the following limiting conditions:
- the distance between the supports not to exceed 4 m;
- the distance above the last structural attachment not to exceed 3 m;
- the free-standing height above the uppermost structural support attachment for chimneys with rectangular cross section is not more than five times the smallest external dimension.
The methods in this part of this document are applicable to chimneys and connecting flue pipes for non-room sealed combustion appliances. The methods in Part 2 of this document are applicable to chimneys and connecting flue pipes for room sealed combustion appliances.

European foreword
This document (prEN 15287-1:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 166
“Chimneys”, the secretariat of which is held by ASI.This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 15287-1:2007+A1:2010.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This European Standard is part of the series Chimneys — Design, installation and commissioning:
— Part 1: Chimneys and connecting flue pipes for non-room sealed combustion appliances;
— Part 2: Chimneys and connecting flue pipes for room sealed combustion appliances.
Currently the standard series EN 1856, Chimneys — Requirements for metal chimneys, is also under
revision and if accepted, modifications to the normative text will be have to be made regarding metal
chimneys.In comparison with the previous edition, the following technical modifications have been made:
a) restructuring of the chapters and annexes;b) harmonization of the text with part 2;
c) updating the content according to EN 1443:2019;
d) adoption of all relevant terms from EN 1443:2019;
e) description of the designation and classes of a chimney according to EN 1443:2019;
f) expanding the specifications for accessories;g) schematic illustrations of examples of installation configurations;
h) recommendations for some minimum distances from combustible material;
i) scope now covers positive pressure chimneys.

Introduction
CEN/TC 166 started with its programme on standardization of chimneys approximately 30 years ago,
with standards for interfaces, for products, for tests and last but not least for design, installation,
construction and commissioning matters.In the last years, first priority in the work program was given
