BUILDERS OPENING / CHIMNEY BREAST

Stratford Ti 40 fires are designed to be fitted into a rectangular recess not less than 400mm (15 3/4'') deep, not less than 400mm (15 3/4'') wide and not less than 550mm (21 1/2'') high, the so-called "standard builder's opening".

The fireplace surround should be vertical, and with a flat surface against which the unit can be sealed. The height and width of the flat surface required will vary according to the model being installed. Where the unit is to be fitted into an existing opening it will normally be necessary to cut a hole through the chimney breast so that a flue connector can be fitted between the appliance and the chimney flue. Avoid damaging the lintel.

For boiler models it may be necessary to cut access holes through the side(s) or the chimney breast, so that flow and return pipes can be connected to the appliance.

FLUE

If using an insulated steel flue ensure that the manufacturer's directions are followed. Take special note that the first 450mm (18'') of the flue should be single skin cast iron or heavy-duty steel flue.

When a flue lining is fitted (to stainless steel or pumice chimney systems) it should be supported independently to the appliance, i.e. with clips, brackets, flue lintels, etc. NOT simply resting on top of the appliance. It should be possible to remove the fire for major maintenance work.

CHECKING THE THERMOSTAT Remove the thermostat knob by pulling off, lift the side panel up and pull to the left to replace the opposite side repeat the above exercise.

The control knob which is inside the fire for despatch is fitted on to the shaft through the hole in the left hand casing. It is however, advisable to check the cold setting of the thermostat before installing and running the appliance. This is best

seen from inside the appliance with the grate, fuel retainer bars, ash pan, etc., removed.

With the control set at minimum the damper should be just touching the side of the ash pit chamber all round the air inlet grill.

With the control set at maximum (8) and the damper plate parallel with the arm, there should be a gap of approximately 23mm between the body and the edge of the damper plate furthest from the control shaft.

If the cold setting does require adjustment it will be necessary to remove the front trim to give access to

the thermostat. To do this first remove the control knob from the thermostat shaft, then slacken the screws, which fix the casing to the unit front (a screwdriver can be inserted through the slots on the radius corner of the casing): the back of the casing laps over the flange of the unit front. Lift the casing and pull forward to remove. Adjust the setting by slackening off the lock-nut.

Replace the casing on the unit front and refit the control knob on to the thermostat shaft.

INSTALLATION

Fill the space around the appliance level with the top unit with Vermiculite cement (6 parts Vermiculite granules to 1 part Portland cement). The flue socket in the appliance is designed to receive 5'' or 6" nominal cast iron or heavy duty steel pipe connector which should be caulked with asbestos rope and fire cement.

The length of the connector pipe will be dependent on the distance between the top of the appliance and the bottom of the chimney but should be at least 300mm (12").

Fill the remaining space around the connector with the Vermiculite cement to a level where the pipe is effectively sealed in the chimney flue, ensuring that the flue gases can only be discharged into the flue way. Reinstate brickwork to chimney breast and make good. Remember to make provision for access to boiler connections for routine observation/maintenance.

Replace parts previously removed and check unit thoroughly.
