INSTALLING THE STOVE
The overall dimensions of the stove are shown in Fig. 3. The table above indicates
recommended distances between the stove and surrounding combustible materials. As
a rule, any surrounding combustible material should not exceed 80 ºC. There should be
sufficient space around the stove for service work.
HEARTH
The construction of the hearth must conform to Building Regulations, must be firm, non-
combustible and capable of supporting the stove. (Refer to Building Regulations
Document J). This appliance has been independently certified to stand on a 12mm (½”)
thick non-combustible hearth.
FLUE CONNECTION
The flue pipe used to connect the stove to the chimney is 5’’ (125mm) in diameter. The
stove is supplied ready for top flue connection. To change to rear connection the flue
blanking plug supplied with the stove is used to block the top flue outlet. The blanking
plug in the rear flue connection must then be removed (to access the bolts attaching the
rear flue connection the convector panel must first be removed) – see Fig.4. To access
and remove the top cast flue collar, the stove baffle must first be removed and the two
stove top bolts can be removed. With these undone, the stove top can be removed
allowing access to the cast flue collar. A rear flue box attachment is also available from
ESSE that allows the stove to be installed further out of any building recess. Fig.1 shows
suitable flue connections.
IMPORTANT INSTALLTION NOTES:
1. The installation must allow for adequate chimney sweeping.
2. Avoid using bends greater than 45 ºC to the vertical. All flue pipe sections
should be as close to vertical as possible.
3. All joints in the flue system must be effectively sealed.
4. All flue sockets must face upwards.
5. Check the appliance for soundness of seals between castings and main
components and that all supplied parts and fitting are correctly fitted.
On completing the installation, check that all the internal components of the stove are
positioned correctly.
Check – ashpan, iron grate, baffle, side and back bricks.
