INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

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 (5") in diameter.

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

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

1.4The chimney should be swept prior to the installation of the appliance. However, where it can be seen that the chimney is clean and unobstructed throughout its entire length, it need not be swept.

1.5If the stove is to be fitted into an existing brick built chimney without a closure plate, a 127mm (5") liner must be used. Larger lined flues may work, but in some instances could cause cold start flue problems resulting in nuisance shutdown. Lined flues above 175mm (7") are not recommended.

1.6Due to recent changes to European chimney standards, new flues and chimneys are now classified by their resistance to temperature, pressure, corrosion, condensation and fire. To assist in identifying the correct flue system, the minimum flue specification is shown in Installation Instructions, Technical Specification (page 8). Existing chimneys are not covered by this system.

2.Ventilation

2.1Consult the rules in force.

Note: This appliance does not normally require any additional ventilation when installed in G.B.

3.Installation of the gas supply

9.1Before installation ensure the stove is compatible with the local gas type and pressure.

9.2Ensure the gas supply delivers the required amount of gas in accordance with the rules in force.

9.3Soft copper tubing and soft soldered joints must be no closer than 50mm to the base of the burner unit.

9.4Ensure a means of isolating the gas supply, independent of the stove's controls is provided.

9.5All gas supply pipes must be purged of any debris before connection to the stove.

4.location

4.1This appliance must stand on a non-combustible hearth that is at least 12mm thick, and projects a minimum of 50mm from the base of the stove in all directions (see Diagram 1).

4.2This appliance must not be installed in a room that contains a bath or shower.

4.3The stove is not suitable for installation against a combustible wall; all combustible materials must be removed from the area behind the stove.

4.4Ensure that all minimum clearances to combustible materials are complied with (see Diagrams 2 & 3).

The above dimensions provide adequate clearance to combustible materials. It may be necessary to add additional clearance so that the controls can be reached and spillage tests performed when necessary.
