In situations where the stove is to be fitted into a brick or non-combustible recess, we recommend
that the stove is installed with at least 0 cm clearance to the wall, this will allow room air to circulate
around the stove; also the maintenance of the outside stove is easier. When applied to masonry,
a layer of wallpaper is normally classified as a non-combustible surface.
Clearance to combustible surfaces in front of stove:
Model Distance to combustible materials in front of the stove
Ø4
700 mm.
Ø6
00 mm.
Ø8
00 mm.
The clearances stated above are minimum distances, but consideration ought to be given to
whether furniture or other items can be affected by heat.
A wood-burning stove gets hot when it is fired. The necessary caution must therefore be
observed, particularly where children or the infirm are present.
Hearth requirements of all models
Where the stove is to be fitted onto a combustible floor an appropriate non-combustible
hearth (stone, brick, glass etc.) MUST be fitted in accordance with Local and National Buil-
ding Regulations.
Consideration should also be given as to the stove weight to ensure that the underlying floor
is able to bear the weight.
The hearth temperature under safety test was less than 65°C.
The stoves handle also gets hot when the stove is lit, which is why a safety glove is included
with the stove.
