COMBUSTIBLE SHELVES AND BEAMS
Due to the fact that combustible shelves, timber fireplaces and beams have potentially
thousands of possible configurations in conjunction with stoves outset or inserted partially or
fully into chambers, it is not possible to give firm guidance on dimensions to these features. As a
guideline, materials that are in ‘line of sight’ to the stove are more likely to overheat due to
direct radiation from the stove body than materials that are not in ‘line of sight’ (e.g. with stove
fully inside a chamber). Materials above the stove are far more likely to overheat than materials
alongside or below. A guideline limiting temperature for solid timber (not surface finishes) is
approximately 80-85 degrees C with a normal ambient room temperature. Temperatures of
combustible materials can be substantially lowered with a simple heat shield constructed of a
non-combustible material and small air gap (6-12mm for example) between the shield and
combustible material.
5.6.2. Distances from NON-combustible materials:
The stove can be recessed in a suitable sized non-combustible fireplace but a permanent free air
gap of at least 50mm must be left around the sides and top and at least 50mm at the back of
the stove to obtain reasonable heat output and for access to the stove for removal and
maintenance. A clearance of 150mm will give a better heat output
In accordance with Building regulations all non-combustible walls closer than 400mm to the
stove should be at least 75mm thick. For practical reasons the back wall of the fireplace recess
and the hearth should be made of non-combustible material.
5.7. Hearths:
These stoves do not require a constructional hearth beneath them as they do not cause the
floor temperature to exceed 100 degrees C. Hearths must be generally level. In all instances a
non-combustible superimposed hearth extending fully underneath the stove and forming an
apron of at least 225mm at the front of the stove and 150mm on either side must be provided.
The superimposed hearth must not be less than 12mm thick and must have a clearly defined
edge (change of level) to discourage placing of any combustible materials on or partially over it.
The appliance shall be installed on a floor with adequate load-bearing capacity. If the existing
construction does not meet this requirement, suitable measures (e.g. load distributing plate)
should be provided to achieve it.
5.8. Accessories
Woodtec stoves are provided with a selection of accessories including stands, log store stands,
and a dedicated outside air kit. Only use genuine Woodtec accessories.
5.9. Commissioning and Handover
CO Alarm: Building Regulations require that whenever a new or replacement fixed solid fuel or
wood/biomass appliance is installed in a dwelling a carbon monoxide alarm must be fitted in the
same room as the appliance. Further guidance is available in BS EN50292:2002 and from the
alarm manufacturer’s instructions. Provision of an alarm must not be considered a substitute for
either installing the appliance correctly or ensuring regular servicing and maintenance of the
appliance and chimney system.
Upon completion of the installation, allow a suitable period of time for any fire cement and
mortar to dry out. A small fire may then be lit and checked to ensure the smoke and fumes are
taken from the stove up the chimney and emitted safely to atmosphere.
