Congratulations on your new stove.
We are sure that you will be happy
with your investment, especially if you
follow the advice and instructions we
have put together in these operating
instructions.
The Scandia 6304 has been approved
according to the EN 13240 / NS 3058.
Approval means that consumers can
be sure, that the stove meets a range
of specifications and requirements
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
2. Make sure there is adequate ventila-
tion to the room.
3. Please note that any extraction fans
operating in the same room as the
wood-burning stove can reduce the
chimney draft – which may have an
adverse effect on stove combustion
properties. In addition, this may
cause smoke to be emitted from
the stove when the firing door is
opened.
4. It must not be possible to cover any
air vents.
The floor
It is essential to ensure that the floor
surface can actually bear the weight
of the stove and a top-mounted steel
chimney, if applicable. The stove must
stand on a nonflammable surface such
as a steel floor plate or a brick or tile
floor. The size of the nonflammable
surface used to cover the floor area
must match national and local regula-
tions.
The chimney connection
The chimney opening must follow
national and local regulations. Howe-
ver, the area of the opening should
never be less than 175 cm
2
, which
corresponds to a diameter of 150 mm.
If a damper is fitted in the flue gas
pipe, there must always be at least 20
cm
2
of free passage, even when the
intended to ensure that the materials
used are of good quality, that the
stove does not adversely affect the
environment, and hat it is economical
to use.
With your new stove you should have
received the following:
a. Operating instructions
b. Guarantee slip
c. A stove glove
Safety clearances
Stoves must always be installed in line
with national and, if applicable, local
regulations. It is important to abide
by local regulations regarding setting
up chimneys and connection to same.
Therefore, always consult your local
chimney sweep before installation, as
you are personally responsible for en-
suring that the applicable regulations
have been met.
Distance regulations
A difference applies to installation
next to flammable and non-flammable
walls.
If the wall is made of non-flammable
material the stove can, in principle, be
placed flush against it.
However, we
recommend leaving a gap of at least
5 cm to facilitate cleaning behind the
stove.
The minimum distances to flammable
material are stated on the boiler plate
and are listed in the table on page 4.
Warning
A stove gets hot. (In excess
of 90 degrees) Take care to
ensure that children and
elderly or infirm people can not come
into contact with it.
IMPORTANT
1. Make sure there is adequate provi-
sion to sweep the chimney.
