Hearth and Fireplace Requirements
Do not be tempted to fit the stove into an unsuitable fireplace. Beyond the requirements of the building
regulations and access to facilitate servicing the stove, providing a setting which will complement the stove
is not a luxury, it is the practicality of making the most of an investment. A good builder will be able to
transform even the most utilitarian of fireplaces, whether altering its proportions to those of the “Golden
Mean” ideal, exposing a wooden lintel, stone or simply removing superfluous detailing for comparatively
small costs, and the result will be a pleasure for many years.
The measurements are for advice only. In
all installations surrounding inflammable
materials must not exceed 80ºC. Curtains
and furniture must be a minimum of 1m
from the stove. The stove must always
stand perfectly level and have sufficient
space allowed for service work.
