Legislation
Installation of your woodburning stove must always comply with local building regulations. It is a good
idea to consult with your local chimney sweep before installing, since he will be the one to sweep
the chimney and stove.
Room requirements
There must be a constant supply of fresh air to the room in which the stove is to be installed. A
window that opens or an adjustable air vent should suffice.
Please be aware that not all glass parts are heat-resistant. For this reason, a glass wall should some-
times be treated as a flammable wall, in which case we ask you to contact your local chimney sweep
or glass producer to hear at what distance the stove should be kept from glass.
Load-bearing capacity of the floor
Before installing the stove, you must ensure that the load-bearing capacity of the floor can withstand
the weight of the stove and the chimney. The weight of the stove is indicated in the brochure, and that
of the chimney should be calculated according to its dimensions and height.
Distance to inflammable materials
Your HWAM woodburning stove should always be installed on a non-combustible hearth. If it is
installed on a wooden floor or similar, the floor must be covered with a non-combustible material.

Chimney requirements
The chimney must be of a sufficient height to enable an adequate draft and to prevent smoke pro-
blems. Chimney draft nominal Pa.12.
The chimney must have a minimum opening equivalent to Ø 15 cm.
The chimney opening should always be at least the size of the outlet socket of the stove.
The chimney must have an easily accessible soot door.
Air damper
We recommend that the chimney or the pipe is equipped with a damper so that the chimney draught can
be regulated on days with strong winds. It is not allowed that the damper close the pipe totally. There
must always be a free area of min. 20% of the total opening of the chimney or the pipe.
Connection to the chimney
HWAM Classic 4 has both rear and top smoke outlet that can be connected to an approved steel
chimney on top or directly out at the rear to a brick chimney. If the stove is connected with un
uninsulated steel chimney, there must be a distance of 225 mm from the inflammable wall to the
uninsulated steel chimney.
