Description
Tower offers a range of Terminal Guards designed specifically for condensing boilers, adhering to BS5440-1:2008 safety standards. Suitable for use when terminals are placed less than 2.1m above accessible areas (such as ground, balconies, or flat roofs), these guards provide essential protection. They are particularly recommended for plume management kit installations where terminals are accessible. To prevent corrosion from acidic condensates, Tower’s plastic-coated guards are ideal, with several finish options to suit different environments.
