SITE REQUIREMENTS

1.FLUE AND CHIMNEY REQUIREMENTS

1.1The chimney or flue system must comply with the rules in force, and must be a minimum of 127mm in diameter. (5").

1.2The minimum flue height for the appliance must be 3 metres (10ft). Any horizontal flue run from the rear outlet must not exceed 100mm from the back of the appliance.

1.3The chimney or flue must be free from any obstruction. Any damper plates must be removed or secured in the fully open position, and no restrictor plates fitted.

1.4The chimney must be swept prior to the installation, but it need not be swept if it can be seen the chimney is clean and unobstructed throughout its entire length.

1.5A5" (127mm) liner must be used if fitting the stove into an existing brick built chimney.

Larger lined flues can work, but in some instances could cause cold start flue problems resulting in nuisance shutdown. Lined flues above 7" (175mm) are not recommended.

1.6Due to recent changes to European chimney standards, new flues and chimneys are described by their temperature, pressure and resistance to corrosion, condensation and fire. To assist in identifying the correct flue system, the minimum flue specification is shown in the Technical Specification. Existing chimneys are not covered by this system.
