3.5 Ventilation (Fresh air supply):
Refer to Current National laws, Building Regulations, & any other Rules in Force, including BS
8303 and BS EN 15287-1:2007 & (Approved Document J England & Wales)
The Windermere 5 SE, nominal heat output 5.0kw. Note: This is the nominal heat output
not
the
maximum heat output.
The Windermere 5 SE uses room ventilation, this stove
is not
approved for direct outside air to
stove ventilation, see section 3.1.4
A multi fuel burning stove
requires air
for combustion and therefore you may need to install
additional ventilation to the room. An adequate air supply for ventilation & combustion
is
required
to the room into which the stove is installed. As this stove is CE tested to 5.0kw
nominal heat output a purpose provided air vent is not normally required, (England and Wales).
However, in certain circumstances a purpose provided air vent may be required such as:
insufficient natural ventilation, a flue draught stabiliser is fitted and date of building
construction etc.
Refer to
Current National laws, Building Regulations and any other Rules in Force
to any
other country or area outside of England for ventilation requirements.
We suggest that it is advantageous
to provide an air supply into the room that the stove is
installed.
When determining the ventilation requirements account will need to be made for any other
combustion devices in the room.
Purpose provided air vents
must be
of the correct size, be non-closable and unrestricted, and
must
comply with
Current National laws, Building Regulation & any other Rules in Force.
Installation of purpose provided air vents must be installed to comply with Current National
laws, Building Regulation & any other Rules in Force.
Extractor fans or any other similar devices
must not
be installed in the room into which the
stove is installed.
Air inlet vents should be positioned in the room at locations to avoid them becoming blocked.
If the air supply is inadequate the chimney draft may be too weak, with the possible result that
the stove will not burn properly leading to a potentially dangerous situation. Smoke spillage
may also occur especially during the refueling process.
If there is an extraction fan fitted in adjacent rooms where this appliance is fitted, additional air
vents may be required to alleviate the possibility of spillage of products of combustion from
the appliance/flue while the fan is in operation. Refer to B.S. 8303 Part 1. Where such an
installation exists, a test for spillage
must
be made with the fan or fans and other appliances
using air in operation at full rate, (i.e., extraction fans, tumble dryers) with interconnecting
doors fully open. and all external doors and windows closed. If spillage occurs following the
above operation, an additional air vent of sufficient size to prevent this occurrence
must be
installed.
This stove requires an adequate air supply in order for the stove to operate safely and
efficiently. The installer may have fitted a permanent air supply vent into the room in which
the stove is installed to provide combustion and / or ventilation air. This air vent should not
under any circumstances be shut off or sealed.
