    Posted this in Plumbing section but the great beings there did not deem me, a simple ill informed mortal, worthy of a reply.
    Hello folks, to those of you in the know I have a query please. My neighbour has an indoor boiler in the kitchen. I've seen the burner on this. But I am wondering how does the burner get enough air as it didn't have an air pipe for external like some. It was a bentone burner I think. It is in a closed in compartment. So how does it get air?

    Many thanks

    The chimney is a balanced flue with 2 pipes. The outer one takes air in whilst the inner one expels the combusted air. See image in link
