DIRECTLY HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL INSTALLATION OF STOVE INTO A
STONE OR BRICK BUILT CHIMNEY.
If you require to fit the Intrepid II gas stove into a stone or brick built chimney, you should
first check that the flue has a positive up-draught as described on page 5 of this book.
A minimum effective flue height of 2.5m from the centre of the flue outlet spigot is
required, and a flue terminal conforming to the requirements of BS 5440 : Part 1 will
need to be fitted.
The flue spigot outlet has been fitted to the appliance from the factory in the vertical
position, if you require to fit the flue pipe in the horizontal position, you must rotate the flue
outlet spigot as shown on page 20-21
A debris / register plate must be fitted around the flue pipe and the flue pipe must be sealed
to both the debris / register plate and to the base of the chimney where the flue pipe enters
the chimney. This should be sealed using a suitable fire cement or proprietary sealing
compound.
If you are fitting the flue pipe directly horizontal on the stove, you will need to reverse the
outlet spigot on the stove, as it is factory set in the vertical position. See page 20-21 for
details of how to reverse this spigot back to the horizontal position.
With the debris / register plate sealed into position and any sealing compound cured, and
with the flue outlet spigot in the correct position, set the stove to its required position and
connect the flue pipe to the chimney spigot / collar. Once this is complete, proceed with
the connection of the gas supply, fuelbed layout and commisioning of the stove.
On the following two pages, diagrams are shown to illustrate a
vertical installation
(page 12) and a
horizontal installation
(page 13), with relevant dimensional information.
See page 31 for flue pipe / elbow options.
A closure plate is enclosed with the product.
