DIRECTLY HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION OF STOVE INTO A PROPERTY BUILT
WITHOUT CHIMNEY LINER, UTILISING A METAL FLUE PIPE.
If you require to fit the Intrepid II gas stove into a property without a stone or brick built
chimney, you will need to fit sufficient length of flue pipe for clearance of the combustion
products. This must be a minimum of 2.5 meters effective flue height / length. The flue
pipe must also be a minimum of 5” (125mm) in diameter.
Any flue pipe fitted should be secured to the building in line with current building
regulations.
The flue pipe can be purchased either from the manufacturer or from an external supplier
of flue pipes. Any pipe used should conform to the requirements of BS 715.
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.
The flue will need to be tested for positive up-draught, as described on page 5, when the
flue pipe is in place, before the stove is attached to it.
Once this is complete, proceed with the connection of the gas supply, fuelbed layout and
commisioning of the stove.
On the following pages, diagrams are shown to illustrate a
installation in the
horizontal
(page 18)
and

spigot position

See page 31 for flue pipe/elbow options.
