FLUE DRAUGHT
The flue draught should be checked before installation to ensure that the
flue is free of obstructions.
After installation, two flue draught readings should be taken and recorded
in these instructions, one with the appliance at minimum burning rate and
one at maximum burning rate.
Minimum reading: The appliance should be lit and allowed to warm the flue
thoroughly. Close the air controls, and ensure firebox door is fully closed.
Allow the burning rate to become steady. The flue draught reading should
now be taken; the minimum required is 12 Pascals [Pa] (0.05’’ w.g.).
Maximum reading: The air controls can now be opened to allow the
appliance to burn at maximum rate. Take a flue draught reading.
Ideally, the flue draught readings should range between 12Pa, 0.12mm
(0.05’’ w.g.) and 24Pa, 2.5mm (0.1’’ w.g.). Any readings significantly outside
this range may indicate the need for remedial action. Low flue draught
symptoms: difficult to light and smoke coming into the room. High flue
draught symptoms: fuel burns away very quickly, over firing which may
damage the appliance & invalidate the warranty.
A flue stabiliser can be fitted to reduce the draught through the appliance if
the draught is too high. The flue stabiliser should be fitted in the same room
as the appliance and be the same size as the flue pipe. Consult Approved
Document J of the Building Regulations regarding additional ventilation.
