When deciding on where to place a vent,
the installer must ensure that the
position will not cause undue air
currents through occupied areas of the
room. General points to note when
fitting a vent are,
Building Regulations specify
minimum distances to flues and
chimneys when placing a vent.
Where the vent is passing through
a cavity wall, the vent must have
a continuous duct across the
cavity. This duct must prevent the
ingress of moisture to the cavity
and the room.
If the vent is to be installed
into another internal room it must
not be a toilet, bathroom, bedroom
or separate living area such as a
chalet.
External air for airtight
and HRV fitted
buildings
Due to the increase in building
standards airtightness and the use of
Heat Recovery Ventilation, this stove
is available with external air
capability through the use of an
external air manifold fitted to the
Damper box of the stove. A flexible
aluminium pipe of 75mm internal
diameter can be used to connect off
this manifold onto the air supply
pipe. To bring air to this connection
duct it is advisable if possible to
run a 4” whether proof pipe from one
face of the house to the other end
which will help to balance high and
low pressure zones due to wind
conditions. The flexible aluminium
duct can then be connection to a Tee
piece off of the 4” duct. The 4” pipe
must be fitted with grilles to
prevent the entrance of rodents,
moisture and debris. Particular
attention must be paid to the HRV
unit if its suction fan into the
building fails and a negative
pressure within the building
develops. It is strongly advisable to
install a vent in the room that
allows negative pressure air movement
into the building in this event. It
is also most important to fit a
Carbon Monoxide Alarm approved to EN
50291 standard in the room where the
stove is fitted.
In addition to installation instructions
supplied, the requirements of BS.8303
and BS.6461 Parts 1&2; 1984 must be
fulfilled. Also all local authority
bylaws and domestic building regulations
should be taken into account, including
those referring to national and European
Standards regarding the installation of
solid fuelled burning appliances, flues
and chimneys must be observed.
Hearth and Fire Surround
If the installer has any doubts as to
the positioning of the stove and
necessary fire proofing, expert advice
should be sought before any work begins.
The stove must be placed onto a fire
proof hearth of at least 12mm in depth
and no combustible materials is used
