Flue and Chimney connection to your stove (continued)

If it is found that there is excessive draught in the chimney then either an adjustable flue damper or alternately a draught
stabiliser should be fitted. The adjustable flue damper should not close off the flue entirely but should in its closed position
leave a minimum continuous opening free area of at least 20 % of the total cross sectional area of the flue or flue pipe.

Adequate provision e.g. easily accessible soot door or doors must be provided for sweeping the chimney and connecting flue

pipe

Your appliance needs to be maintained routinely, the throat plate/baffle should be cleaned regularly (monthly) . The flue

pipe can be cleaned using a flexible brush. Only Use a damp cloth on external surfaces. Over time the glass may become
dirty, clean with a damp cloth and polish off with damp cloth.  If the stove has not been used for some time  the flue should
be checked for blockages before use.
Do not modify the appliance; only use spares authorised by the manufacturer.
