Do not subject the hearth to sudden impacts by dropping the stove. The stove is heavy and it is
strongly recommended that lifting is undertaken by two people.
•
If necessary place a piece of vermiculite, Masterboard or other fire protection board beneath the
stove to reduce the effect of radiated heat.

Air Supply and Room Sealing Kit
All hydrocarbon burning appliances require an oxygen/air supply.
If the stove is to be fitted on an external wall the air supply can be taken straight from the outside
by using the room sealing kit (
part number ROOMSEALKIT)
. A 100mm diameter hole needs to
be drilled in the correct place (to take the 86mm external (80mm internal) duct as supplied. This
will allow for easy connection. Any gap can be filled in with cement or mastic.
•
A proprietary grille is supplied with the kit.
The room sealing method of supplying air is always to be preferred as heat loss from the room will
be greatly reduced.
If the stove is not on an outside wall it may be possible to use an angled room sealing kit (
part
number ROOMSEALKIT90)
. This leaves the back of the stove at right angles and can run along a
wall or taken vertically downwards through the floor and onto the outside using additional ducting.
Only permanently open vents can be used and consideration should be given to draught when the
stove is not in use, therefore site this vent carefully. The vent covers should comply with Building
Regulations Part J and should be sited where they cannot be blocked.
WARNING
The Burley Fireball series of stoves are primarily for burning wood (this includes logs and
sawdust briquettes). In smoke control areas only wood fuels should be used.
Before purchasing a stove we would strongly advise you to seek the advice from one of our
retailer or a HETAS installer to ensure suitability of the product for your home.
Under no circumstances should liquid fuels be added. It is not an incinerator and rubbish,
including painted or tanalised wood and MDF, should not be burnt in this appliance, doing
so is potentially dangerous and will invalidate any guarantees immediately.
