when a draught stabilizer is equipped. Due care for air requirements
will need to be taken if any other appliances are permitted to work in the same room and space.

Material Clearances
It is workable for the appliance to be recessed in a prepared fireplace, but a suitable free air gap (minimum
150mm) must be left around the sides and top and at least 50mm at the back of the appliance to reach
maximum heat output and for access to the rear of the stove. All non-combustible walls closer than 300mm
to the stove should be at least 75mm thick.
In all instances the back wall of the fireplace recess and the hearth should be made of non-combustible
material. Allow an apron of at least 300mm at the front of the stove and 150mm on either side.
The hearth on which the stove is to be placed should not be less than 125mm thick and should be in
accordance with the current building regulations.
Care should be taken to level the stove using the adjusting screws in the feet.
The appliance shall be installed on a floor with adequate load-bearing capacity. If the existing construction
does not meet this prerequisite, suitable measures (e.g. load disturbing plate) should be taken to achieve it.
There should be no combustible material within a distance of 500mm from any surface of the stove.

Commissioning and Handover
You should leave an appropriate period of time for fire cement and mortar to dry out upon completion of
the installation. In order to ensure the smoke and fumes are taken from the stove up the chimney and
emitted safely to atmosphere, a small fire should be lit first. Do not run the stove at full output for at least
24 hours.
Finishing the installation and commissioning, the operating instructions and tools for your stoves should be
kept in hand. It is also important to know how to use the stove properly and use only the recommend fuels
for this appliance. The user should know how to have smoke or fumes emitted properly form the stove and
be warned to prevent injuries in case of the presence of children, aged or infirm persons.
