2.0 INSTALLATION
2.5 Connecting to the chimney (including the connecting flue pipe)
Diameter of flue outlet is 125mm
The appliance is equipped with a top and rear outlet. We recommend the top outlet is used for best performance because of
combustion technological reasons. However the stove can also be connected from the rear (technical data contains the
connection height), remove the flue outlet from the top of the appliance and the blanking plate from the back. Connect the
flue outlet collar on to the rear ensuring the top outlet is sealed using the blanking plate. Check all outlets for spillage when
operating the appliance. The heat plate must be used to protect the rear outlet if not in use.
Top connection:
The minimum length of the connecting flue pipe must be 600mm and
it must
be inserted into the collar. It
must not
sleeve
over the collar and rest on the covers as referenced below
Soapstone Top
Ceramic/Glass Top
The connecting flue pipe must be in accordance with BS EN 15287‑1.Twin wall connecting flue pipe is not permitted and appli-
ance adaptors are not recommended and must be approved by the manufacturer prior to use.
*Please refer to Percy Doughty Technical Bulletin #001 for further guidence*
Connecting to the chimney:
Single-skin connecting flue pipes shall not be used as a complete chimney; they shall only be used to connect an appliance to a
suitable chimney or twin wall system chimney.We recommend the use of a connecting twin wall adaptor for connecting to the
chimney. The insert has to be fully installed into the chimney in order to prevent movement during normal use which could
cause joint separation and leakage to occur between the appliance and the flue such as to impair the ability of the chimney to
evacuate products of combustion safely to the outside atmosphere. All connections must be exact and insulated. All combus-
tible materials have to be removed within a 200mm radius of the insert and have to be replaced by heat resistant/non-
combustible material.
If there is wallpaper in the direct vicinity, it must be removed from behind the stove and from the side.
Fixing Ceramic Glass or Soap stone Lid
Before connecting the stove, please take off all accessories that are not attached, such as top soapstone/ceramic tile or the
soapstone /ceramic tiles placed in the warming plate. This way you can prevent these parts from falling while moving the
stove. Do not attempt to maneuver the stove in to position or work on the flue with the soapstone or ceramic top in place as it
may become damaged. For further information to retrofit any soap stone covers then the manufacturer must be contacted in
the first instance. Follow the directions below when you light the fire for the first time.
