Would the canopy come out to the side as far as the pipe ? It looks to be
far enough away from the door to fit a small canopy beside it. Is the door
to the garage opposite the kitchen door ? Or are you thinking on covering
the whole gap between the buildings some how ?

The flue is roughly about the place where I was thinking of adding a
door to the (newly) covered passageway.

The flue pipe needs to be sealed with the correct paste stuff at any slip
over joints, so you might need the help of someone who knows about these
things. But I do know that it is possible to have a least 2mtrs of flue
from most of the standard boilers without needing extra fan assistance and
things. So, the next questions are, how far away from the wall is the
boiler ? And would any extension to the existing flue, take it over the
nominal 2mtr length ?

I was thinking that maybe a 90 degree bend to take the flue to
vertical, and then 1m with a raincap on top.

Haven't discussed this with SWMBO yet. That'll probably be met with
the same argument about us getting a small dog. Why are some people so
alienated by a dog yet they wax lyrical about getting a cat? I can't
stand cats because they are so damned independent.
