Flooring:
If the floor on which the stove is to be placed is inflammable, the floor must be covered with non
-flammable material, such as steel or glass plate, floor tiles or artifical slate, covering an area of
at least 15 cm from the sides of the stove and at least 30 cm from the front of it. Regarding the
front, however, we recommend 50 cm. Also, the Floor construction must be capable of carrying
the combined weight of stove and chimney.
Installation distance:
If walls are non-inflammable, the stove can be placed closer to them. However, we recommend
a minimum distance of 5-10 cm, to allow for cleaning behind the stove. The cleanout gate must
be accessible. Optimal combustion can only be obtained if fresh air is constantly admitted. It is
important, therefore, to ensure that this is the case. The best way to provide a steady flow of
fresh air is by installing 1-2 air vent’s in the room where the stove is situated. (One in each side
of the room).
According to existing regulations, stoves must be placed with the following minimum distances
in mm to inflammable walls and materials. The distance from the outer edge of the flue pipe to
inflammable material is descriped as for horizontal Flue 300mm and the distance for vertical flue
is 225mm
