Thanks Mar

Depends weather the materisls are combustible or not.

Assuming combustible materials then without further info from the manufacturer you need 75mm clearance all round. Also (without info to the contrary) you need 9cm^2/kW of boiler of ventilation and below and above the boiler. These can be halved if the air is to/from outside.
