If the stove is to be installed in an ‘Inglenook’ type Fireplace, then
there must be sufficient space around and above it for air to
circulate, and for access for servicing. This requires a minimum of
150mm each side and 300mm above. There must not be any
combustible materials within these distances. A steel ‘Register’ plate
will be fixed into the chimney, preferably at a height where the
chimney narrows down so as to avoid having a large air void above
the register plate. The fluepipe from the stove will protrude a small
amount through the hole in the register plate, and will be sealed in
position. This is shown in Fig. 7. A double feed indirect hot water storage cylinder to BS:1566 part 1
should be used in most situations, unless the appliance is to be fitted
in a soft water area in which case a direct hot water cylinder may be
used provided that the boiler is stainless steel.
All pipework in the primary circuit must be 28mm diameter and the
flow pipe must rise continuously from the boiler to the open vent.
If an indirect cylinder is used then the primary circuit should be filled
with a suitable inhibitor to prevent the build up of scale and
corrosion.
