of pump failure. All pipework in the primary circuit must be 28 mm

diameter and the gravity flow pipe must rise continuously from the

boiler to the open vent. Two typical systems are shown in Figures 6

and 7

If the appliance is used to heat a small central heating system then the

heat output to the room from the fire will be reduced.

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.

The circulating pump may be controlled by means of time switches,

room thermostats or outdoor thermostats. Radiators may be either

manually or thermostatically controlled. These controls will all work

in conjunction with the thermostat on the appliance and the low limit

pipe thermostat.

We recommend fitting a pipe thermostat onto the gravity return to

act as a low limit thermostat This should be wired into the mains

supply to the pump so that if the gravity return temperature drops

below 45º C then the pump will cut out. This will help to prevent

condensation forming on the boiler faces and will thereby increase

the life of the boiler. It will also ensure that priority is given to the

domestic hot water. These thermostats are available from

Charnwood if you are unable to obtain them locally.

If the vertical rear flue connector (shown in Fig.12) is used  then the

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 should 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 clamping plate is in line with the lugs on

the firebox as shown on the label on the clamping plate. Ensure that

the clamping plate does not prevent the throat plate from seating

correctly. All flue connections must be well sealed.

SYSTEM CONTROLS

CONNECTIONS TO FLUES

There are several ways of connecting the stove to the flue. These are

illustrated in figures9 to 12

SOOT DOORS

UNPACKING THE STOVE

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. This may either

be in the actual brickwork of the chimney or in the register plate.

Various types and positions of soot doors are shown in figures 9 to

12.

The stove arrives bolted and shrink-wrapped to its pallet. The

wrapping is first removed, then the stove released from the pallet by

removing the 4 pallet bolts using a 10mm spanner. The pallet brackets

can now be removed from the stove by tilting it and using a 13mm

spanner to remove the bolts. These 4 bolts are required for levelling

on the Low Stand or fixing on the Centre Stand, but are not used on

the Store Stand. The Stove comes with the Low Stand fitted and if

this is to be used, the Stove may now be moved to its final position.
