Installation Instructions
LOCKING BAND (SUPPLIED WITH EACH COMPONENT WITH A FEMALE SOCKET ON
THE CASE)
A locking band must be fitted to every joint in the system. The band is of stainless steel
construction and is fitted with a quick release clip and a stainless steel tightening bolt.The bolt
can be adjusted to ensure the joint is firmly secured.
STRUCTURAL LOCKING BAND
The structural locking band, which is purchased separately, is used instead of a standard locking
band in a situation where extra structural support is required, for instance where the chimney
height is >1.5m above the last support or above the roof. It is also used to provide extra
support in long horizontal runs. A maximum of 3m unsupported height can be achieved by
fitting the structural locking band on the joint immediately below and on every joint above the
last support. Please see diagram on page 39.
ADAPTORS FROM PRIMA PLUS & PRIMA SMOOTH TO ICS
These components are used to convert from a single wall connecting flue pipe to the ICS
system chimney. The protruding liner should be pushed down inside the female socket of the
connecting flue pipe, with the double wall external case spigot pointing in the direction of the
flue gases.
APPLIANCE CONNECTOR/STARTING CONNECTOR/
STOVE STARTER PIPE
The protruding liner of these components should be pushed
into the appliance spigot with the external male case spigot
pointing upwards.
On solid fuel appliances the appliance connector should be
sealed to the appliance with fire rope and fire cement or high
temperature sealant to provide a gas tight joint. On condensing
appliances the appropriate lip seal should be used.
