THIS APPLIANCE BECOMES EXTREMELY HOT
AND CAN PRODUCE POISONOUS GASES.
A fire-guard should be used if children or the infirm are present.
The installer is required to EXACTLY follow these instructions
and to comply with all local, national and applicable international
standards.
YOUR CHIMNEY
makes you fire work. It stores surplus heat from the fire, which makes
the gas inside its hollow flue lighter, so that it rises, pulling fresh air through the fuel and
making it burn. The stove is for connection to a single flue which must be:
Able to operate safely at temperatures of up to 500°C
Free from even the slightest leak, and absolutely incapable of spilling fumes into the
dwelling
Smooth internally, unobstructed and able to be swept along its entire length.
Generate a continuous up-draught in use of at least 12Pa
These ends will often be achieved by the chimney being constructed entirely of masonry
or insulated metal components, having an internal size of more than 150mm but less than
300mm, being substantially vertical with no severe bends or horizontal portions, being at
least 5m high and terminating at least 1m above any roof.
AIR SUPPLY
You stove needs is air to breath - there must be a permanent, unobstructed, fresh air supply
into the room will which the fire is installed equal to a total of at least 35 square cm. This can
sometimes to be provided by air leaking in through doors, windows etc., but in any case of
doubt, fit a purpose made air vent. An extractor fan or another fuel-using appliance even in a
different room can remove air.
CHIMNEY SWEEPING
Although it is often possible to sweep the chimney through the fire with the top baffle
removed, consider fitting clean hatches to provide access if needed.
CHECK THE INSTALLATION!
Once installed, light the fire, demonstrate it to the householder and
check that:
A.
It burns controllable and does not emit fumes to the room.
B.
The route for the chimney terminal is completely airtight, unobstructed and able to be
swept.
C.
