INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

should not have an excessive cross sectional area. If it was previously

used by an open fire then the chimney should be swept one month

after installation to clear any soot falls which may have occurred due

to the difference in combustion between the stove and the open fire.

If you find that the chimney is in poor condition then expert advice

should be sought regarding the necessity of having the chimney lined.

If it is found necessary to line the chimney then a lining suitable for

Solid Fuel must be used.

If there is no existing chimney then a prefabricated block chimney

or a twin walled insulated stainless steel flue to BSEN 15287-1:2007

can be used either internally or externally. These chimneys must be

fitted in accordance with the manufacturers instructions and Building

Regulations.

Single wall flue pipe is suitable for connecting the stove to the chimney

but is not suitable for using for the complete chimney. If it is found

that there is excessive draw in the chimney then a draught stabiliser

should be fitted.

It is important that there is sufficient draw in the chimney and that the

chimney does not suffer from down-draught. When the chimney is

warm the draw should be not less than 1.25mm (0.05”) water gauge

(12 Pa). If in doubt about the chimney seek expert advice.

HEARTH AND FIRE SURROUND

The stove must stand on a fireproof hearth and must not be

situated closer than 600mm from the sides and 700mm from the

rear to combustible materials above hearth level unless adequately

fireproofed in accordance with local building regulations. The hearth

temperature can, in extreme conditions, exceed 100°C and therefore

a constructional hearth is required. The positioning of the stove and

the size of the hearth are governed by building regulations for Class

1 appliances. These building regulations state that the hearth must

extend in front of the stove by at least 225mm (9 inches) and to the

sides of the stove by at least 150mm (6 inches). If in doubt as to the

positioning of the stove expert advice should be sought either from

the supplier or the local building inspector. When the fire door is

open, it extends beyond the flat front of the stove by 378mm.

If in doubt as to the positioning of the stove, expert advice should be

sought either from the supplier or the local building inspector. The

fireplace must allow good circulation of air around the appliance to

ensure that maximum heat is transferred to the room and also to

prevent the fireplace from overheating. A gap of 150mm (6”) each

side and 300mm (12”) above the appliance should give sufficient air

circulation. If a wooden mantelpiece or beam is used in the fireplace

it should be a minimum of 460mm (18”), and preferably 600mm

(24”) from the appliance. In some situations it may be necessary to

shield the beam or mantelpiece to protect it.

In order for the fire to operate correctly and to allow for access,

there must be an air gap behind the appliance of at least 75mm, but

be aware that this distance will need to be greater in some cases to

meet Building Regulation requirements.

The appliance should be installed on a floor with adequate load-

bearing capacity. If an existing construction does not meet this

requirement then please take suitable measures to achieve this. (e.g.

load distributing plate.)

CONNECTIONS TO FLUES

The stove must be connected to the flue using flue pipe of 125mm

(5”) diameter.

If using twin wall flue, the flue collar must be shielded to protect

exposed combustible material. This can be done with a shielded

starter length of flue.

Fig. 3 Shieding the flue spigot

This may be stainless steel, cast iron, or thick wall steel pipe.

Charnwood Pipe to match the stove is available if required.

There are several ways of connecting the stove to the flue. These are

illustrated in Figs. 5 to 8.

If the top flue connection or optional vertical rear flue connector is

used then the chimney may be swept through the appliance.

Horizontal lengths of flue must be kept to a minimum and should not

be more in length than the flue diameter.

The stove comes with the blanking plate (fig. 9) fitted to the top

flue outlet. The seal for the top outlet is a 155mm dia ring of rope

seal. The seal for the rear outlet is a length of adhesive backed

fibre webbing supplied with instructions ref: TIS093. This is applied

to the flue collar or the Vertical Rear Flue adapter for rear outlet

installations. For top outlet installations, the blanking plate must be
