Combustion air supply
In order for the stove to perform efficiently and safely there must be
an adequate air supply into the room in which the stove is installed to
provide combustion air. The provision of air supply to the stove must be
in accordance with current Building Regulations Approved Document J.
An opening window is not appropriate for this purpose.
Connection to chimney
Stoves may have a choice of either a rear or top flue gas connector
that allows connection to either a masonry chimney or a prefabricated
factory made insulated metal chimney in accordance with their
instructions. In some cases it may be necessary to fit an adaptor to
increase the diameter of the flue to the minimum required 150 mm
section of the chimney or liner.
Position of the smoke pipe
1) Place the first tube in the smoke outlet circle at the top of the stove,
and attach the other tube onto the end.
2) Join it to be rest of the chimney.
3) If the tubing reaches the exterior of your home, place the hat onto the
end.
The tube connections should be sealed with a refractory putty to
prevent soot from falling through the joints.
While the stove is in use, remove any material nearby which could
be damaged by the heat: furniture, curtains, paper, clothes,... The
minimum safety distance from adjacent combustible materials is as
shown on the last page of this manual.
The ease of access for the cleaning of the product, smoke outlet and
chimney must be considered. If you intend to install your stove near an
inflammable wall, we advise you to leave a minimum distance to
facilitate cleaning.
The stove should be installed on flooring with adequate support. If
your current floor does not comply with this criterion, it should be
adapted with appropriate measures (for example, a weight distribution
plate).
