diameter be used to line the chimney, the liner must be approved for use with Multi Fuel burning.
Flue liner installation must comply with Current National laws, Building Regulations, and any
Rules in force, also refer to the flue liner manufacturer’s instructions. The flue liner must be
replaced when an appliance is replaced, unless proven to be recently installed and in good
condition.
The cross-sectional area of the chimney (at its narrowest point)
must comply with Current
National and Local Building Regulations and any rules in force. Generally, the area needed for a
wood-burning stove installation should measure at least 150 mm internal diameter. Please refer to
Current National laws, Building Regulations, and any Rules in Force.
Important note : The Windermere 5 SE has been tested for smoke exemption so a minimum
internal flue diameter of 125mm can normally be used. *(This must be confirmed with HETAS or
Local Authority Building Control and all Current National laws, Building regulations and any
Rules in Force).
An over-sized chimney is generally hard to keep warm and results in poor draft. In cases where
there is an oversized masonry chimney, it is highly recommended that the chimney be lined using
an appropriate and approved chimney lining system with the correct internal diameter as stated
above.
With respect to the chimney termination, all chimneys
must terminate in accordance with Current
National and Local Building Regulations.
Note: Current National and Local Regulations also apply with regard to the placement of
chimneys and flues in connection with thatched roofs.
The chimney or flue system
must be equipped with access doors for inspection and cleaning. The
size of the cleaning door in the chimney must at least equal to that of the cross-sectional area of
the chimney. In the event that a chimney fire occurs resulting from faulty operation or prolonged
use of damp wood fuel, if safely possible close the air vents of the stove completely, evacuate all
persons from the building and contact your local fire department immediately.

top, evenly tighten the 3 bolts so the flue collar adaptor is securely fastened to the top of the stove.
