PICKERING ECO DESIGN SMOKE CONTROL
WOODBURNING STOVE
INSTALLATION AND USER INSTRUCTIONS
Read these instructions carefully before installation and use.
These instructions should be retained by the user for future reference.
The Pickering stove has a nominal heat output of 5.0 kW and a weight of 88 kg. The
flue gas mass flow is 4.4 g/s for wood logs. The mean flue gas temperature directly
downstream of the flue spigot at nominal heat output is 234 degrees C (Wood). The
stove is designed as a closed appliance and is capable of intermittent operation.
Tested Wood Net efficiency = 81.9%.
WARNING
The stove must be installed to comply with Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and to all
local Building Regulations, including those referring to National and European standards.
These need to be complied with when installing the appliance.
Ensure that the flue pipe diameter is not less than the 125mm diameter outlet on the
appliance.
There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the same room as the Pickering Smoke
Control.
If there is a possibility of disturbing asbestos during the installation it is necessary to take
the appropriate steps to protect the installer.
Fire cement is caustic and protective gloves should be worn.
The chimney must be swept and examined for soundness and suitability before the stove
is installed. Remedial action should be taken if required, seeking expert advice if
necessary. Where the chimney is believed to have previously served an open fire
installation it is possible that the higher flue gas temperature from a closed appliance may
loosen deposits that were previously firmly adhered, with the consequent risk of flue
blockage.
It is therefore recommended that the chimney be swept a second time within a month of
regular use after installation.
