Pevex Stoves - Brightwell 400P
– Installation & Operating Manual
If connecting to an existing chimney with a flue
diameter of more than 200mm (
8”) it is recommend
to line the flue using a suitable stainless steel flue
liner.
Where a masonry chimney is not available a
proprietary type of 5”/125mm - twin wall, fully
insulated pipe may be used. The pipe must
terminate at a point not lower than the main ridge of
adjacent out- side obstructions. With such
installation, access to the chimney must be
provided for cleaning purposes.
A chimney / flue termination must be located to
minimise wind effects, a basic guide is that the
distance from the termination to the roof should be
at be at least 2300mm when measured horizontally
and at least 1000mm when measured vertically,
(see Fig.1). In circumstances where there are
adjoining buildings/structures/roof openings there
are additional requirements, please refer to building
regulations part J.

FLUE EXIT (TOP & REAR)
The stove is designed to allow the chimney to be
cleaned through the stove. If the chimney cannot be
cleaned through the stove it is necessary to provide
a soot box/access door in the flue for cleaning. See
Fig.2 for recommended locations. Fit it to the stove
as shown in Fig.2.
The stove comes partially configured for top outlet and
requires the flue spigot (supplied in the firebox) to be
fitted to the top outlet flue connection as shown in Fig 3
using the nuts & bolts provided.
To configure for back outlet flue connection, remove
the top plate and remove the back heat shield by
lifting it up to remove it from its four fixing points.
Remove the flue blanking plate from the back outlet
connection. Remove the flue collar/spigot from the
top connection and fit it to the back outlet connection.
Fit the flue blanking plate to the top outlet
connection. Remove the cut-out on the back heat
shield and refit the heat shield. Fit the top flue
blanking plate (this is an optional extra) (see Fig 4).
