If the appliance is used to heat a very small central heating system then the heat output to the room from the fire will be reduced. Fig. 3. shows the ratio of space heating to water heating which can be expected.

Fitting a radiator in the same room as the fire is recommended as it will allow greater flexibility in the way that the system is operated as well as ensuring that there is sufficient heat.

Connect the heating system to the boiler ensuring that the primary flow pipe rises continuously from the appliance to the vent. Fill the system with water and check for leaks.

SYSTEM CONTROLS

Since the controls on the stove are manually operated we strongly recommend using high and low limit pipe thermostats to control the pump. The high limit, (anti-boiling,) thermostat, should be fitted on the gravity flow pipe as near to the boiler as possible, and the low limit, (anti-condensation,) thermostat should be fitted on the gravity return

-again as near to the boiler as possible but ensuring that it is not on the common part of the return if only

FLUES

There are several ways of connecting the stove to the flue. These are illustrated in Figs. 8 to 11.

If the top flue connection, or the optional vertical rear flue connector, is used then chimney may be swept through the appliance.

Horizontal lengths of flue must be kept to a minimum and should not be more than 150mm (6 inches) long. The sealing face of the flue collar must be coated with fire cement before fixing to the body of the stove using the two screws provided. The blanking plate must be removed, sealed with fire cement and refitted, care being taken to ensure that the fold on the blanking plate is in line with the lugs on the firebox as shown in Fig. 7. Ensure that the clamping plate does not prevent the throat plate from seating correctly. All flue connections must be well sealed.

SOOT DOORS

It is possible to pass a 16 inch diameter sweeps brush through the appliance but in most back outlet installations it will be necessary to have a soot door to enable the chimney to be swept. The optional vertical rear flue connector does allow the chimney to be swept through the stove.

Soot doors may either be in the actual brickwork of the chimney or in the register plate. Various positions of soot doors are shown in Figs. 8 to 11.
