If the chimney is believed to have previously served
an open fire installation, it is possible that the higher
flue gas temperature from the stove may loosen
deposits that were previously firmly adhered, with
the consequent risk of flue blockage. It is therefore
recommended that the chimney be swept a second
time within a month of regular use after installation.
If you have any doubts about the suitability of your
chimney, consult your local dealer/stockist.
Connection to the Chimney
The chimney must be swept before connection to
the stove.
An existing fireplace opening can be bricked up or
sealed with a register plate.
A short length of flue pipe of minimum 127mm
internal diameter may then be used to connect the
stove to the chimney. This flue pipe should be made
of 316 grade stainless steel or vitreous enamelled
steel, nominal thickness 1.2mm.
Ensure that the pipe end is no closer than 76mm to
the chimney walls.
The length of any horizontal run of flue pipe must
not exceed 125mm.
It is essential that all connections between the stove
and chimney-flue are sealed and made airtight.
Both the chimney and flue pipe must be accessible
for cleaning and if ANY part of the chimney cannot
be reached through the stove (with baffle removed),
a soot door must be fitted in a suitable position.
Flue Draught
If the draught exceeds the recommended maximum,
a draught stabiliser must be fitted so that the rate of
burning can be controlled and to prevent over firing.
If the reading is less than the recommended
minimum then the performance of the appliance
will be compromised.
The flue draught should be checked under fire at
high output.
Minimum Draught – 1.2mm Water Gauge
Maximum Draught – 2.5mm Water Gauge
Air Supply
The room or space containing this appliance should
have
purpose
provided
ventilation
(where
necessary) in accordance with Building Regulations.
Due consideration should be given to air
requirements for any other appliance in the same
room or space.
Any air opening must be kept clear from blockage or
obstruction.
Hearth/ Material Clearances
Your stove must be installed on a floor with
adequate load-bearing capacity, otherwise suitable
measures should be taken. Use the adjusting screws
in the feet to level the stove. The stove can be
recessed into a suitably sized fireplace. Ensure there
is a free air gap of at least 150mm above and 50mm
around the sides and rear of the stove.
Where possible it is recommended that a free air
gap of 150mm or more is left around the sides of the
stove to obtain maximum heat output and to gain
access to the rear of the stove.
