Distance to walls covered by a firewall
Firewall requirement
The firewall must be at least
100 mm thick
and be made of brick,concrete-stone or light concrete.
Other materials and structureswith satisfactory documentation may also be used.
Ceiling protection
There must be a minimum distance of
1200 mm
to a combustibleceiling above the fireplace.
Clearances to furniture and soft furnishings
We recommend that the stove be installed 800 mm from furniture. Serious consideration should also
be given to positioning of any furniture that could be adversely affected by heat. The clearances to
combustible materials in front of the stove should be a minimum of 800mm. When lit, a wood-burning
stove gets hot and therefore adequate protection must be provided, particularly in situations where
there is a safety risk to children or the infirm. A suitable safety guard around the stove should be
considered
.
2.4 The chimney
This product never connect to any shared chimney.
An efficient modern stove places heavy demands on the chimney, and you should have the chimney
regularly swept and inspected by your approved chimney sweep.
The cross-sectional area of the chimney (at its narrowest point) must comply with National and Local
Building Regulations. Generally, the area needed for a - 7 - wood-burning stove installation should
measure at least113cm
2
(125 mm diameter).
An over-sized chimney is generally hard to keep warm and results in poor draft. In cases here there is
an oversized masonry chimney, it is recommended that the chimney be lined using an appropriate
chimney lining system with the correct internal diameter.
With respect to the chimney termination, all chimneys should terminate in accordance with national
and Local Building Regulations.
Note that National and Local Regulations also apply with regard to the placement of chimneys and
flues in connection with thatched roofs.
The chimney or flue system must be equipped with access doors for inspection and cleaning. the size
of the cleaning door in the chimney must at least equal to that of the cross-sectional area of the
chimney. In the event that a chimney fire occurs resulting from faulty operation or prolonged use of
damp wood fuel, close the air vents completely and contact your local fire department immediately.
2.5 Pipe connections
The stove is installed with a 125 mmdiameter flue pipe. This must be an approved thickness.
The flue outlet for this product is inside the burn chamber during transportation. You can choose
between a top or rear outlet from the flue pipe. The screws for fastening are in the bag containing
screws.
