Flue Requirements
The chimney must be swept before installation and checked for soundness
and suitability. The chimney must also be free from cracks and blockages.
If you find the chimney is in a poor condition then expert advice should be
sought
If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire then the chimney should be swept
one month after installation to clear any soot falls which may have occurred
due to the difference in combustion between the stove and the open fire.
The chimney and connecting fluepipe must not narrow to less than the size of
the outlet socket of the stove at any point
This appliance must not be used in a shared flue system.
The minimum flue draft is 12 pascals at nominal output.
Minimum flue height 5 meters.
The 150mm diameter flue models may be increased to 170mm diameter.
The 130mm diameter flue should be increased to 150mm. A 130mm flue may
be used when the stove is fitted in the smoke control mode, i.e. Smoke Tab
removed.
It is recommended that there should not be at any time an extractor fan fitted
in the same room as the appliance as this may cause the appliance to emit
fumes into the room. If unavoidable the appliance must be checked with
reference to ADJ 1.21, and necessary action taken.
If appliance is fitted in an area that has another flue (mechanical or otherwise)
a flue interference test must be completed and recorded.
