sufficient air circulation. If a wooden mantelpiece or beam is used in
the fireplace it should be a minimum of 460mm (18 inches), and
preferably 600mm (24 inches) from the appliance. In some situations
it may be necessary to shield the beam or mantelpiece to protect it.
In order for the fire to operate correctly and to allow for access,
there must be an air gap behind the appliance of at least 75mm, but
be aware that this distance will need to be greater in some cases to
meet Building Regulation requirements.
CONNECTIONS TO FLUES
The stove must be connected to the flue using 1
25mm (5") i/d pipe.
This may be stainless steel, cast iron, or thick wall steel pipe. Straight
lengths of Charnwood Pipe to match the stove are available if
required.
There are several ways of connecting the stove to the flue. These are
illustrated in Figs. 5 to 8.
If the optional vertical rear flue connector is used then the chimney
may be swept through the appliance.
Horizontal lengths of flue must be kept to a minimum and should not
be more than 125mm (5 inches) long. The sealing face of the flue
collar must be coated with fire cement before fixing to the body of
the stove using the two screws provided. The blanking plate must be
removed, sealed with fire cement and refitted, care being taken to
ensure that the fold on the clamping plate is in line with the lugs on
the firebox as shown in Fig. 4. Ensure that the clamping plate does
not prevent the throat plate from seating correctly. All flue
connections must be well sealed.
