The stove can be recessed in a suitable sized fireplace but a permanent free
air gap of at least 200mm must be left around the sides and top and at least
50mm at the back of the stove to obtain maximum heat output and for
access to the rear of the stove.
MINIMUM DISTANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
Note: combustible material refers to any material that will degrade when
subjected to heat e.g. plaster.
Due to the heat of a hot stove, a suitable fire guard should always be used to
provide additional protection. Never allow young children to be left
unsupervised in a room containing a hot stove.
Note; If in doubt, refer to the Building Regulations 2000 Approved Document
“J”.
THE CHIMNEY
The stove is supplied with a flue pipe connector for top or rear mounting with
the fixing screws supplied. The stove should never be connected to a shared
chimney/flue system.
Flue pipes with a smaller cross-sectional area than that of the stove outlet
should never be used. Flue pipes must not project into the chimney
connector, such as to cause a restriction to the gas flow.
Sizes of flues in chimneys are stipulated in Table 2 of the Building Regulations
2000 Approved Document “J” as follows:
1. Stoves under 20kW rated output which burn smokeless or low volatile fuel
require a minimum flue size of 125mm diameter (or rectangular flues
having the same cross-sectional area and a minimum dimension not less
than 100mm for straight flues or 125mm for flues with bends or offsets.
2. Stoves of up to 30kW rated output burning any fuel require 150mm diam-
eter (or rectangular flues having the same cross-sectional area and a
minimum dimension not less than 125mm.
Liners should be installed in accordance with their manufacturers instructions.
Appropriate components should be selected to form the flue without cutting
and to keep joints to a minimum. Bends and offsets should be formed only
with the matching factory-made components. Liners need to be placed with
the sockets or rebate ends uppermost to contain moisture and other
condensates in the flue. Joints should be sealed with fire cement, refractory
mortar or installed in accordance with their manufacturers instructions. Ensure
the joints are completely sealed as air leakage will lead to poor
performance. 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. For further detail refer to
Building Regulations document “J”
