INSTALLATION
FLUE OUTLET AND HOT PLATE
The flue spigot is found inside the appliance.
(Except for the EB7 Rear Flue only model
were no spigot or hot plate is required)
The hot plate is supplied fitted to the top
opening and is removed by turning clockwise
(as is the flue outlet)
Smear a very thin layer of fire cement on the
surfaces of the flue outlet and hot plate, fit the
outlet to the appliance in the desired position.
Lock into place by rotating anti-clockwise and
tighten by tapping with a block of wood and
mallet from inside of the appliance. Similarly, fit
the hot plate to the unused opening. Clean off
any surplus fire cement.
Place appliance on the hearth and make sure
that it is level and does not rock.
Connect the chimney ensuring all joints are
sealed with fire cement.
FLUE AND SPIGOT FITTING
Note:
THE FLUE PIPE MUST BE FITTED INSIDE THE
OUTLET SPIGOT
( EB7 Outlet Collar)
FAILURE TO
DO SO COULD RESULT IN THE SPILLAGE OF
CONDENSATION ETC. RUNNING DOWN THE
FLUE.
FLUES AND CHIMNEYS
The flue draw is critical on any installation and
should be checked to ensure that it matches what
is specified. If it is higher than recommended provi-
sion must be made to correct the overdraw.
The draw can vary in different weather conditions
and the customer should be made aware of this.
Failure to correct an over-drawing flue will invali-
date the warranty, and may damage the appliance.
Please remember that chimney draught is
dependent on four main factors.
Flue gas temperature
Flue height
Flue size
Flue terminal
The stove must be connected to a suitable and
efficient flue that provides a good up draught to
safely take the products of combustion (fumes)
from the stove outlet to the outside air.
To ensure a good up draught it is important that
the flue gases are kept warm and that the flue size
suits the stove.
The termination of the outlet at the top of the flue
also needs to comply with
Building Regulations
.
The minimum effective height of the flue must be
at least 4.5 meters from the top of the stove to the
top of the flue outlet. When warm the flue draught
should be between 0.1 and 0.2mb
(10-20 pa). A chimney may comply with the regu-
lations but still be subject to down draught and
similar problems. A chimney terminating above the
ridge level is generally less likely to suffer such
problems.
If a new chimney is being provided it should fully
comply with the relevant Building Regulations that
specify the requirements for solid fuel burning in-
stallations.
Suitable types of chimney include the following.
Masonry chimney
built with clay or concrete lin-
ers, or a chimney block system. These types of
chimney should comply with and be installed in
accordance with Building Regulations and
BS EN15287: part1.
Factory made insulated chimney
complying with
BS EN1856-1:2009 (often called ‘Class1 prefabri-
cated metal chimney’) and installed in accordance
with Building regulations and BS EN15287: parts 1
to 4.
