Installation Instructions

These instructions give a guide for the installation of the appliance but in no way absolves the 
installer from responsibilities to confirm to British Standards, in particular BS8303 and BS6461, 
relating to the installation of solid fuel appliances. The installation should also comply with local 
Building Regulations and Local Authority Bye-Laws.  
The stove must be placed at least 40cm away from any combustible materials. If necessary, 
any adjoining walls should be protected from the effects of heat.

Chimney and Flue

The successful operation of this stove relies on the adequate performance of the 
chimney to which it is connected. The chimney must:

Have an internal cross section of no less than 320 cm.sq (200mm Dia.). (If a 
flue liner is used it should be 6" diameter for the 700 17B stove, and suitable 
for wood burning).

Be a minimum 4.6m high from hearth level to pot.

Be terminated at least  1m above roof level so that the chimney does not 
terminate in a pressure zone. See Figure.1

Be free from cracks, severe bends, voids, and obstructions.

Be connected to the one appliance only.

New chimneys must be built in accordance with local building regulations.

Existing chimneys must be tested in accordance with HETAS requirements.

If the stove is installed as a free-standing appliance, it should not support any 
part of the chimney.

Voids in the chimney should be avoided, as these will prevent a steady flue 
draught.     The   stove   flue   pipe   should   pass   beyond   the   narrowing   of   the 
chimney. See Figure 2

Consideration should be given to falling soot. For rear outlet stoves it may be 
necessary to provide a soot catchment area in the flue pipe so that soot does 
not settle in the path of the flue gases. A flue/chimney access point may also 
be required so that the state of the chimney can be checked and any fallen 
soot removed.

External flues must be insulated to prevent heat loss.

The installer has a responsibility under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 to provide for the safety of 
persons carrying out the installation. Attention is drawn to the fact that fire cement is caustic and hands 
must be washed thoroughly after use. The appliance is heavy and care must be taken during handling.  
Although the appliance does not contain asbestos products, it is possible that asbestos may be disturbed 
in existing installations and every precaution must be taken

.Please Observe The Above.
