The room or space containing this appliance

LUE CONNECTION
-
All inset installations must have a
‘Throat Forming Lintel’, if a ‘Builders Opening Lintel’
is present then this will have to be modified for
these units to be fitted.
This stove must be fitted on a hearth or base with
adequate load-bearing capacity.
The opening into which this stove is fitted should be
constructed wholly from non-combustible materials.
The dimensions of the opening should be
at least
those shown in the diagram.
This appliance will fit into a standard 16” fireplace
opening if the clay fireback is removed.
Any non-combustible walls within 50mm of this
appliance should be at least 200mm thick and
should extend at least 300mm above the top of the
appliance and at least 1.2 metres above the hearth.
Any walls more than 50mm from the appliance may
be reduced to a thickness of 75mm. Ensure the inter-
connecting flue pipe also has adequate clearances to
combustible materials.
The walls surrounding the stove will become hot and
should therefore be finished in a heat resistant
plaster.
Do not hang pictures, plasma screen televisions or
ornaments above the stove, as these could be
damaged and could potentially create a fire hazard
.
Please check the suitability of any
fireplace/surround for closed solid fuel appliances
before installation. Hunter Stoves cannot be held
responsible for any fault arising through incorrect
use or installation. Fire surround back panels
suitable for solid fuel are usually in three sections
and slabbed. Many fire surrounds are suitable only
for use with gas and electric fires and therefore not
suitable for solid fuel.

EQUIREMENTS
A constructional hearth with a minimum thickness of
125mm should be provided. This constructional
hearth should extend to at least 300mm in front of
the stove and 150mm at the sides.
The constructional hearth should be made of solid
non-combustible material and can include any solid
non-combustible floor. The boundary of the hearth
must be clearly marked. This can be done by adding a
super-imposed hearth on top of the constructional
hearth – e.g. a slate slab on top of a solid concrete
floor.
