PLACEMENT & INSTALLATION
WARNING: IF THIS STOVE IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED, A
HOUSE FIRE MAY RESULT. FOR YOUR SAFETY, CONTACT THE
LOCAL BUILDING OR FIRE OFFICIALS ABOUT RESTRICTIONS AND
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS IN YOUR AREA.
POSITIONING
The stove should only be placed on a wooden floor if it has been covered by a metal plate or
other non-inflammable material at least 5mm thick. Combustable materials such as carpet or
linolium must be removed from beneath the stove.
When the stove is positioned near a wall constructed of flammable material, the distances shown
on Fig 5 (page 6)
must be adhered to. Alternatively, a heat shield may be used. mounted
according to the position of the fireplace. A firewall must be at least 100 mm thick and typically
made of brick, concrete/stone or light concrete and is indicated in Fig 5.
The stove must have a minimum clearance of 1200 mm to a combustable ceiling above.
It is recommended that the stove be installed 800 mm from furniture and serious consideration
should be given to the positioning of any furniture that could be adversely affected by heat. The
clearance to any combustable materials should also be a minimum of 800mm.
Due to the heat of a wood burning stove, a suitable fire guard should be used to provide
additional protection.
THE CHIMNEY
The stove is supplied with a 150mm flue pipe which can be used for either top mounting or rear
mounted installation and the redundant apperture blanked off with the plate and fixing screws
supplied. The stove should never be connected to a shared chimney/flue system.
Ensure the joints are completely sealed as air leakage will lead to poor performance. If the
chimney draft is naturally poor it is better to install the flue from the top of the stove. Avoid having
more than two bends in the flue system. Any offset between bends should be minimised and the
flue should be equipped with suitable access doors for inspection & cleaning.
A range of suitable flue pipes, cowls and fire cement are available from your Clarke dealer.
