CHIMNEY & FLUE INFORMATION
The successful operation of the cooking appliance relies on the
adequate performance of the chimney to which it is connected. The
following chimney guidelines must be followed:
•
It should have an internal cross section of no less than 320cm2
(200mm dia.) (If a flue liner is used, it should be 150mm (6’’)
diameter and be made of suitable material for burning wood).
The flue diameter is 150mm (6’’).
•
Voids in the chimney should be avoided, as these will prevent a
steady flue draught. The appliance flue pipe should pass
beyond the narrowing of the chimney.
•
Be terminated at lease 1m above roof level so that the chimney
does not terminate in a pressure zone.
•
If the appliance is installed as a freestanding appliance, it
should not support any part of the chimney.
•
Be free from cracks, severe bends, voids, and obstructions.
Be connected to this one appliance only.
New chimneys must be in accordance with local regulations.
The chimney must be capped to prevent ingress of rain.
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.
Do not fit an extractor fan in the same room as the appliance.
Be a minimum 4.6m high from top of the flue box to the chimney
pot.
