not be less than 4 metres measured
vertically from the outlet of the stove
to the top of the chimney. The internal
dimensions of the chimney should
preferably be 175 mm (7 inches) or
200mm (8 inches) either square or
round and MUST NOT BE LESS THAN
150 mm (6 INCHES).
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.4543 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 (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
2.5mm (0.10 inches) water gauge. If in
doubt about the chimney seek expert
advice.
The stove must stand on a fireproof
hearth and must be situated at least
300mm (12 inches) from any
combustible material. There must be a

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 not be an extractor fan
fitted in the same room as the stove as
this can cause the appliance to emit
fumes into the room.
There must be an adequate air supply
into the room in which the appliance is
installed totalling at least 100 square
cm. (16 square inches) to provide
combustion air. This is particularly
necessary if the room is double glazed.
In addition to these instructions the
requirements of BS.8303 and BS.6461
Pt 1&2; 1984 must be fulfilled. Local
Authority Bylaws and Building
Regulations regarding the installation of
Solid Fuel burning appliances, flues and
chimneys must also be observed.
The output of the Country 6 is 6.0 kW
(20,500 Btu/h). The output of the
Country 8 is 8 kW (27,300 Btu/h).
The output of the Country 12 is 12 kW
(40,900 Btu/h)
The optional add-in boiler for each
model has an output of 2.9 kW
(10,000 Btu/h), if the boiler is fitted
then the heat output to the room will
be reduced by this amount.
These outputs are based on a 2 hourly
re-fuelling cycle burning seasoned
hardwood logs, or a 4 hourly re-
fuelling cycle burning smokeless fuel.
In order for the appliance to perform
satisfactorily the chimney height must
gap behind the stove of at least 25mm
to allow air to enter the airwash inlets.
The positioning of the stove and the
size of the hearth are governed by
building regulations for Class 1
appliances. These building regulations
state that the hearth must extend in
front of the stove by at least 300mm
(12 inches) and to the sides of the
stove by at least 150mm (6 inches). If
in doubt as to the positioning of the
stove expert advice should be sought
either from the supplier or the local
building inspector.
The fireplace must allow good
circulation of air around the appliance
to ensure that maximum heat is
transferred to the room and also to
prevent the fireplace from overheating.
A gap of 150mm (6 inches) each side
and 300mm (12 inches) above the
appliance should give sufficient air
circulation. If a wooden mantelpiece or
beam is used in the fireplace it should
be a minimum of 460mm (18 inches),
and preferably 600mm (24 inches)
from the appliance. In some situations
it may be necessary to shield the beam
or mantelpiece to protect it.
The optional add-in boiler which may
be fitted in the appliance has an output
sufficient for domestic hot water
heating. If the boiler is fitted then the
room heating will be reduced.
The hot water system should be a
gravity circuit and must be correctly
vented as shown in Fig. 4.
A double feed indirect hot water
storage cylinder to BS:1566 part 1
should be used in most situations with
the standard steel boiler. If the
appliance is to be fitted in a soft water
area then a direct hot water cylinder
may be used provided that the stainless
steel boiler is fitted.
All pipework in the primary circuit
must be 28mm diameter and the flow
pipe must rise continuously from the
boiler to the open vent.
