2. Installation of the stove
You are welcome to install your wood burning stove yourself – but we strongly recommend that you consult
your chimney sweep before you begin the installation. It is important to ensure that all local rules and
regulations, including ones relating to national and European standards, are complied with when installing
this device. Your dealer can also provide you with installation advice. Remember, it is your responsibility that
rules in force are complied with.
2.1 Position of the stove / distance requirements
The wood burning stove must be installed in a suitable and physically possible position. You need to be sure
that the position complies with local regulations. Distance requirements will only apply if the wood burning
stove is to be placed close to flammable materials:
Distance to flammable material (see illustration)
Behind the
stove
Behind stove with
insulated flue pipe
To the sides
Above the stove
Distance to furniture
15 cm
10 cm
70 cm
75 cm
90 cm
If the stove is positioned against a brick wall or other non-flammable material, there are no minimum distance
requirements. To facilitate cleaning and for the best use of the convection air, we recommend that you leave
a distance of approximately 5-10 cm to the wall.
You may not begin to use the stove until it has been inspected and approved
by your local chimney sweep.
