If in doubt as to the positioning of the stove expert advice should be
sought either from the supplier or the local building inspector.
The fireplace must allow good circulation of air around the appliance
to ensure that maximum heat is transferred to the room and also to
prevent the fireplace from overheating. A gap of 150mm (6 inches)
each side and 300mm (12 inches) above the appliance should give
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 there must be an air gap
behind the appliance of at least 40mm, but be aware that this
distance will need to be greater in some cases to meet Building
Regulation requirements.
CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEM
The central heating system must comply with BS EN 14336, BS EN
12828 and BS EN 12831.
The installation of any electrical services during the installation of this
boiler and the associated heating system must be carried out by a
registered competent electrician and in accordance with the
requirements of the latest issue of BS 7671.
If the system is to be a combined heating and domestic hot water
system then a double feed indirect hot water storage cylinder to
BS:1556 part 1 should be used. In order to prevent the build up of
scale and corrosion a suitable inhibitor should be used. The system
must be correctly vented as shown in Figs. 6 and 7. The height
differential between the header tank and the appliance must not
exceed 15.2 metres (50 feet).
If all four boiler tappings are used then, if possible, diagonal pairs
should be connected for domestic hot water and central heating.
Where a common return is used an injector tee must be
incorporated into the system as shown in Fig.8. This will ensure that a
good domestic hot water supply is maintained when the central
heating pump is operating.
The system must incorporate a gravity circuit which will normally
heat the domestic hot water and an unvalved radiator with an output
of at least 1 kW. When the appliance is not connected to a domestic
hot water system the unvalved radiator(s) on the gravity circuit must
have an output of at least 1.25 kW. This is to prevent boiling in case
