Please note that it is a legal requirement under
England & Wales Building Regulations that the
installation of the stove is either carried out under
Local Authority Building Control approval or is

such that the requirements of the Health & Safety at
Work Act are met.
Handling
Adequate facilities must be available for loading,
unloading and site handling.
Fire Cement
Some types of fire cement are caustic and should
not be allowed to come into contact with the skin. In
case of contact with the skin wash immediately with
plenty of water.
Asbestos
This stove contains no asbestos. If there is a possi-
bility of disturbing any asbestos in the course of
installation then please seek specialist guidance and
use appropriate protective equipment.

The complete installation must be done in accor-
dance with current Standards and Local Codes. It

Your Stanley stove is supplied with the following
items:
•
Flue Pipe Heat Shield

Hob Blanking Plate
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.
CHIMNEY
Do not connect to a chimney serving another
appliance.
The stove is a radiant room heater and must be con-
nected to a chimney of the proper size and type.
The chimney must have a cross-sectional area of at
least 30 square inches 19350sq. mm or a diameter of
at least 6” (150mm). The stove is supplied with a 5”
flue spigot, the flue installation will require a 5” to 6”
increaser which must be fitted within 1 metre of flue
outlet. It is best to connect to a chimney of the same
size, as connection to a larger size may result in a
somewhat less draught.
A flue that has proved to be unsatisfactory, particu-
larly with regard to down draught should not be used
for venting this appliance until it has been examined
and any faults corrected. An existing masonry chim-
ney should be inspected and if necessary repaired by
a competent mason or relined using an approved lin-
ing system.
