INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

HEALTH & SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Please take care when installing the stove that the requirements of
the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 are met.
Some types of fire cement are caustic and should not be allowed to
come into contact with the skin. In case of contact wash with plenty
of water.
If there is a possibility of disturbing any asbestos in the course of
installation then please use appropriate protective equipment.
There must be an adequate air supply into the room in which the
appliance is installed to provide combustion air. The combustion air
supply must be via a permanently open vent. The requirement for
minimum free area is partly dependent on the design air
permeability of the house. In older properties the air permeability
will be above 5.0m³/(h.m²), but in some modern properties it may
be less. The vent must be positioned such that it is not liable to
blockage. Minimium areas are given in the following table:
This stove is capable of intermittent operation, and is not suitable for
use in a shared flue system.
A fixed ducted air supply may be used as an alternative to the
traditional method of using a permanent open vent into a room to
supply air for combustion.
External air supply kits are available please contact Charnwood for
more information.
In addition to these instructions the requirements of BS.8303 and
BSEN 15287-1:2007 must be fulfilled. Local Authority Bylaws and
Building Regulations, including those referring to national and
European Standards, regarding the installation of Solid Fuel burning
appliances, flues and chimneys must also be observed.
CO ALARMS
Building regulations require that whenever a new or replacement
fixed solid fuel or wood/biomass appliance is installed in a dwelling a
carbon monoxide alarm must be fitted in the same room as the
appliance. Further guidance on the installation of the carbon
monoxide alarm is available in BS EN 50292:2002 and from the
alarm manufacturer's instructions. Provision of an alarm must not be
considered a substitute for either installing the appliance correctly or
ensuring regular servicing and maintenance of the appliance and
chimney system.
SPECIFICATIONS
CHIMNEY
In order for the appliance to perform satisfactorily the chimney
height must not be less than 4 metres measured vertically from the
outlet of the stove to the top of the chimney. The minimum internal
chimney sizes are as follows:
COVE 2
........... 150mm diameter(6 inches) or 150mm x 150mm
COVE 3
............ 180mm diameter (7 inches) or 180mm x 180mm
These stoves are NOT to be used in a shared flue. If an existing
chimney is to be used it must be swept and checked, it must be in
good condition, free from cracks and blockages, and should not have
an excessive cross sectional area. If you find that the chimney is in
poor condition then expert advice should be sought regarding the
necessity of having the chimney lined. If it is found necessary to line
the chimney then a lining suitable for Solid Fuel must be used.
If there is no existing chimney then a prefabricated block chimney or
a twin walled insulated stainless steel flue to BS EN15287-1:2007
can be used either internally or externally. These chimneys must be
fitted in accordance with the manufacturers instructions and Building
Regulations.
Anki pumice liners or chimney blocks will give a highly insulated
chimney which will work well with all fuels. For details ring Anki
Chimney Systems on (01983) 527997.
Single wall flue pipe is suitable for connecting the stove to the
chimney but is not suitable for using for the complete chimney.
If it is found that there is excessive draw in the chimney then a
draught stabilizer should be fitted.
It is important that there is sufficient draw in the chimney and that
the chimney does not suffer from down-draught. When the chimney
is warm the draw should be not less than 0.05 inches water gauge
