    extracted fans and gas flue

    Yes its treated the same. If the the extract is not running then its an opening,the same as any other. When the extract is running then theres even less chance of any re entry of combustible gases, so 300mm is the minimum. If the device was drawing air in from outside then you would need to...

    extracted fans and gas flue

    A Zs observation for all

    Well as i stated in a earlier post, refer to the note at the bottom of the tables in BS 7671, as far as the IEE are concerned, column 12 of the "Schedule of Tests Results", the measured value with the appropriate adjustment is required.
