The stove’s flue spigot is fitted to the flue pipe by pushing
it upwards from within the stove so that the flue can be
positioned exactly, before in filling the fireplace to give
the required housing size. A register plate should now be
fitted.
This is a plate of metal or a proprietary non combustible
board made for this purpose, which closes all but a hole
cut for the flue pipe of the chimney opening. Its purpose
is primarily to prevent the inevitable debre, and especially
lime mortar falling onto the stove top, which will cause
corrosive damage to the stove top, but it also serves to
position, exactly, the flue pipe in readiness for the stove.

Before infilling the fireplace, consideration must be given to the heat generated by all the surfaces of the stove.
If the face of the chimney breast is to be a smooth wall the heat surrounding the stove facia may be sufficient to
crack ordinary plaster, especially if it has been applied recently. Heat resistant plasters and screed are available.
The walls on top of the stove will become very hot and no combustible materials should be used as for any part
of the infilling. Insulating blocks such as “Durarock” may be used to line the cavity if you need to keep the heat
to the fireplace walls at a minimum to protect any pictures that may be hanging on them. Because the flow
of rising hot air from the stove front can be considerable and constantly changing in temperature, no valuable
pictures should be hung above the stove.
