GRAINNE SOLID FUEL STOVE INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
When installing, operating and maintaining your
Grainne Stove respect basic standards of fire safety.
Read these instructions carefully before commenc-
ing the installation. Failure to do so may result in
damage to persons and property. Consult your local
Municipal office and your insurance representative
to determine what regulations are in force. Save
these instructions for future reference.
PRE INSTALLATION ASSEMBLY
1.
Remove the flue spigot and put in the orientation
required. (See Flue Connections)
2.
Remove the stove from the wooden pallet.
3.
Unscrew the two

from the base and fit the front ash tray using the
two screws (see Fig.1).
Fit the primary air control knob to the flexible drive.
FLUES
Flues should be vertical wherever possible and
where a bend is necessary, it should not make an
angle of more than 45
o
with the vertical. Horizontal
flue runs should be avoided except in the case of a
back outlet from the appliance, when the length of
the horizontal section should not exceed 150mm.
In order to minimise flue resistance and to make
sweeping easier it is recommended to use 2 x 45
o
bends rather than a 90
o
bend.
The flue termination point must be located to min-
imise any wind effects. Wind effects of suction,
pressure zones and turbulence can be created by
the roof and adjacent objects. Wind effects can also
be created by natural land contours.
To minimise the wind effects, the flue termination
point should be located a minimum of 600mm from
the roof measured vertically and 2300mm measured
horizontally. Where this termination point does not
suffice it may be necessary to extend the flue pipe
so that the termination point is above the apex.
FLUE PIPES
A flue pipe should only be used to connect an appli-
ance to a chimney and should not pass through any
roof space.
Flue pipes may be of any of the following materials:
(a) Cast iron as described in BS 41: 1973 (1981),
or
2
The installation must be completed in accordance
with current National and European Standards and
Local Codes. It should be noted that the require-
ments and these publications may be superseded
during the life of this manual.
