The minimum depth of the recess
for the stove from the front face
should be 365mm. In most cases
this will require that the
fireback is removed and any loose
material removed. The distance
from the face of the fireplace to
the centre of the flue should be
checked to verify it is between
230mm and 330mm. Please ensure
that the stove in the recess sits
flat with the hearth.
Stove Fitting
There are two main methods of
connecting the stove to the
chimney. Method 1 is to use a
closure pipe adaptor section and
an extension piece. Method 2 is to
line the chimney with a suitable
152.4 mm liner for solid fuel
and connecting to the stove
with a solid section
connector.
Method 1.
The closure pipe adaptor section
of flue should have an offset
built in to allow for the
difference in depth from the front
face of the fireplace to the flue
outlet on the stove. Once the
closure pipe adaptor has been put
in the correct position, fire
cement should be used to make a
tapered seal between the clay
liner and the adaptor to ensure
any condensate or rain will flow
into the flue and not down around
the stove body. The extension
piece of flue is now pushed fully
up onto the closure adaptor to
allow for the stove to be
positioned into the proper
position. Please note that the
extension pipe must fit OVER the
bottom end of the closure adaptor
pipe. The stove facade should be
offered up to the stove at this
point to ensure proper depth
placement of the stove. Now pull
the extension pipe down through
the stove and using fire cement
fit the flue collar to the end of
the extension pipe and when fully
sealed, push the flue collar up
into position and bolt into place.
Check that the joints are all
fully sealed with fire cement and
haven’t
being damaged during
fitting. Finally fit the facade
onto the stove ensuring that the
damper mechanism is free and clear
in operation.
Method 2.
The stove it placed in position
and the facade is placed on the
stove to check that the depth of
the stove into the recess is
right. A straight section of solid
fuel flue pipe approx. 152.4-
203.2mm long with a flexible liner
adaptor on the top of it should be
mounted to the bottom of the
flexible liner and fully tighten
the holding screws on the adaptor.
