See Addendum
Under no circumstances should the diameter of any flue or lining leaving the stove
be reduced less than its 150mm diameter flue outlet.
The flue outlet on the stoves top is 150mm+ and accepts a 150mm stove pipe which
must be bedded into the outlet with fire cement for a gas tight seal (Minimum 1mm
thick metal pipe). Ensure a heat expansion joint is used as metal expands at a
different rate to Silicon Carbide and may result in cracking around the flue which
would not be covered under the guarantee.
The nominal flue outlet of the Ecco Stove is 150 mm diameter for which a 150 mm
flue liner insulated around within the masonry chimney with perlite grains or similar
or rockwool wrap is strongly advised, or a suitably insulated pre-fabricated twin
wall stainless steel flue system.
Any joints must be self tap screwed and jointed with fire cement.
Flue’s up to 9m in height are adequate in 150 mm inner diameter.
Flues over 9m in height should be 175 mm in the diameter.
High temperature hot face inner linings or coatings are suitable materials but ideally with a maximum
flue area of 225 x 225 mm.
Pumice hot face linings with insulation or leka pelletts are suitable.
Under no circumstances should the Ecco Stove be connected directly to clay linings within chimneys,
unless those clay liners have a hot face lining fitted within, in order to reduce condensation within the
chimney flue.
ANY FLUE INTENDED FOR USE MUST BE SWEPT IN ADVANCE AND TESTED FOR SUITABILITY PRIOR TO
THE APPLIANCE BEING INSTALLED. IF INSTALLINGTHIS STOVE ONTO AN EXISTING FLUE WHICH IS
DEEMED/TESTED AS SUITABLE WHICH WAS PREVIOUSLY USED FOR AN OPEN FIRE, THE FLUE MUST BE
SWEPT AGAIN WITHIN A MONTH OF INSTALLATION AS THE HGIHER TEMPERATURE OF FLUE GASES
MAY LO
OSEN THE OLD OPEN FIRES BUILT UP DEPOSITS, TO ENSURE BLOCKAGE DOESN’T OCCUR.
20. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Flue ways within the Eco Stove should be cleaned two monthly in continuous combustion for which the
stove should be let out (not burning).
Cleaning access points are located on the stoves top surface (4 hot plates) which must be lifted vertically
to access the vertical flue ways (2 each side).
After brushing down (and up) the deposits can be scraped or vacuumed out by removing the clearing
plugs located on the front of the bottom section (2 discs).
The first section of flue pipe vertically off the appliances top flue outlet MUST include a flue cleaning
access.
