INSTALLATION & SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
(

FLUE REQUIREMENTS
a. Ensure that the builders opening, flue & hearth for the appliance are constructed from non-combustible materials, and
conform to National Regulations and Local Codes.
Models with a 6.9kW input nett or less require a minimum flue diameter of 125mm or equivalent area (Class 2) subject to
proper clearing of products of combustion i.e. no spillage.
Models over 6.9kW input nett require a minimum flue diameter 175mm or equivalent area (Class 1) subject to proper
clearing of products of combustion i.e. no spillage.
b. The flue MUST be free of any obstructions. Any dampers or restrictors MUST be removed. Some dampers are impractical to
remove; therefore they must be fixed in some way in the OPEN position.
c. The chimney/flue should be swept prior to installation of the appliance.
d . Ensure that only one fireplace is served by the flue system.
e. Ensure that the chimney/flue is continuous from inlet to termination.
f . Ensure that the chimney/flue is structurally sound, so that combustion products do not come into contact with combustible
material outside the chimney.
g. Ensure that there is a smooth tapered transition from the fireplace opening to the flue.
h . If the appliance is to be installed under a canopy, or is open on both sides, great care must be taken to ensure the
configuration is correct. If in any doubt seek expert advice.
i. CHECK FLUE PULL. Apply a smoke match to the flue opening at hearth level and observe smoke. If there is a definite flow
into the flue aperture, proceed with installation. If there is not a definite flow into the flue aperture, preheat the flue for
approximately 10 minutes and re-test. If there is still no definite flow towards the flue aperture the flue may need attention.
DO
NOT FIT THE APPLIANCE, SEEK EXPERT ADVICE.
VENTILATION
THE CONNECTION, VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS (IF ANY) & INSTALLATION OF THE APPLIANCE MUST BE IN
ACCORDANCE WITH NATIONAL REGULATIONS AND LOCAL CODES. IF IN ANY DOUBT WITH REGARD TO ANY
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS SEEK EXPERT ADVICE.
NOTE. In the UK Models with 6.9kW input nett or less do not require
additional room ventilation. In Eire all Evolution Plus Fires require additional room ventilation. For other countries refer to National
Regulations and Local Codes.
