INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CONNECTIONS TO FLUES
SOOT DOORS
The stove must be connected to the flue using flue pipe of
125mm
(5") diameter.
If the top flue connection or 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 in length than the flue diameter.
The stove comes with the blanking plate (fig. 11) fitted to the top flue
outlet. The seal for the
top
outlet is a 155mm dia ring of rope seal.
The seal for the
rear
outlet is a length of adhesive backed fibre
webbing supplied with instructions. This is applied to the flue collar or
the Vertical Rear Flue adapter for rear outlet installations. For top
outlet installations, the blanking plate must be removed, have the
webbing fitted to its sealing face, and fitted to the rear flue outlet.
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. 6 to 9.
Ensure that the fold on the clamping plate is in line with the lugs on
the firebox as shown in Fig 8. Ensure that the clamping plate does not
prevent the throat plate from seating correctly. All flue connections
must be well sealed.
It is possible to pass a 16 inch diameter sweeps brush through the
appliance but in most back outlet installations it will be necessary to
have a soot door to enable the chimney to be swept. The optional
vertical rear flue connector does allow the chimney to be swept
through the stove. Soot doors may either be in the actual brickwork
of the chimney or in the register plate. Various positions of soot doors
are shown in Figs. 6 to 9.
Ensure that the throat plate is fitted in the roof of the appliance. The
location and positioning of the throat plate is shown in Fig. 5.
Check that the front fence is fitted correctly and that the door closes
properly.
On completion of the installation allow a suitable period of time for
the fire cement and mortar to dry out before lighting the fire. Make a
layer of ash or sand on the base of the stove before lighting. Check to
ensure that smoke and fumes are taken from the appliance up the
chimney and emitted safely. Also check all joints and seals. On
completion of the installation and commissioning please leave the
operating instructions with the customer and advise them on the use
of the appliance.
If the optional wood ash removal kit has been fitted, the wood ash
retainer will need to be removed and left with the customer. Remind
the customer that if the wood ash removal kit is removed; the wood
ash retainer will need to be re-positioned before use. See figure 10.
