Pevex Stoves - Brightwell 400P 

– Installation & Operating Manual

 

 

 

 

 

CLEARANCES TO NON COMBUSTIBLES 

 

If you are fitting the stove into a brick buil

t fireplace and it’s deemed as 

Non-combustible

 you would still fit the 

Non-combustible hearth

 but you could then reduce the distance around the back and the sides of the stove to 

the non-combustible brick wall, we would recommend 100 mm this allows you access around the stove for 
servicing 

 

 

 

 

COMMISSIONING AND HANDOVER 

On  completion  of  the  installation  allow  a  suitable 
period of time for any fire cement and mortar to dry 
out,  when  a  small  fire  may  be  lit  and  checked  to 
ensure  the  smoke  and  fumes  are  taken  from  the 
stove  up  the  chimney  and  emitted  safely  to  the 
atmosphere. 

Do not run at full output for at least 

24 hours.

the fuels likely to be used on the stove and warn 
them to use only the recommended fuels for the 
stove. Advise the user what to do should smoke or 
fumes be emitted from the stove.
