INSTALLATION

FITTING THE FLUE OUTLET AND HOT PLATE

The flue outlet spigot is found inside the appliance. The hot plate (blanking plate) is supplied fitted to the top opening and is removed by turning clockwise (as is the flue outlet).

Smear a very thin layer of fire cement on the faces of the flue outlet and the blanking plate. Fit the outlet to the appliance in the desired position.

Lock into place by rotating anti-clockwise and tighten by tapping with a block of wood and mallet from the inside of the appliance. Similarly, fit the blanking plate to the unused opening. Clean off any surplus fire cement.

Place appliance on the hearth and make sure that it is level and does not rock.

Connect the chimney ensuring all joints are sealed with fire cement.

*NOTE

THE FLUE PIPE MUST BE FITTED INSIDE THE OUTLET SPIGOT FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN THE SPILLAGE OF CONDENSATION ECT. RUNNING DOWN THE FLUE.

FLUES AND CHIMNEYS

Please remember that chimney draught is dependent on four main factors:

•Flue gas temperature.

•Flue height.

•Flue size.

•Flue terminal.

The stove must be connected to a suitable and efficient flue that provides a good updraught to safely take the products of combustion (fumes) from the stove outlet to the outside air. To ensure a good updraught it is important that the flue gases are kept warm and that the flue size suits the stove.

The termination of the outlet at the top of the flue also needs to comply with the Building Regulations. The minimum effective height of the flue must be at least 4.5 metres from the top of the stove to the top of the flue outlet. When warm the flue draught should be between 0.1 and 0.2 mb.

A chimney may comply with the regulations but still be subject to down draught and similar problems. A chimney terminating above the ridge level is generally less likely to suffer such problems.

If a new chimney is being provided it should fully comply with the relevant Building Regulations that specify the requirements for solid fuel burning installations. Suitable types of chimney include the following.

Masonry chimney built with clay or concrete liners, or a chimney block system meeting Building Regulations. These types of chimney should be installed in accordance with the Building Regulations and BS 6461: Part 1.

Factory made insulated chimney complying with BS 4543: Part 2 (often called "Class 1 prefabricated metal chimney"). These types of chimney should be installed in accordance with the Building Regulations and BS 7566: Parts 1 to 4.
