Additional Ventilation of a minimum 100cm2 is required when installing this
product in G.B. When Installing in I.E. please consult document I.S. 813 :
1996 Domestic Gas Installation, which is issued by the National Standards
Authority of Ireland. If installing in Northern Ireland, please consult local

1.2
FLUE AND CHIMNEY SUITABILITY
This appliance is designed for use with conventional brick built or lined chimneys
and fabricated flues / metal flue boxes conforming to BS 715. All flues must con-
form to the following minimum dimensions.
Minimum diameter of circular flues
125 mm (Without Flue
Restrictor Fitted)
Minimum effective height of all flue types
3 metres
The efficiency baffle must be fitted when installing this product into a
conventional brick built chimney, to prevent debris falling onto the fuelbed.
If fitting into a class 1 (175mm) metal flue box and liner, it is desirable to leave the
baffle in place to reduce the flue flow and thus increase the heat output from the
appliance. Safe clearance of products must always be checked by carrying out a
smoke match test as described on page 21.
