INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 

 

 
INTRODUCTION 
 
SAFETY 
 

Safety is the most important consideration when using and installing your stove. If not installed and used correctly, a house 
fire could result. Installation must comply with relevant national and local Building Regulations and fire safety standards. 
 
IN THE EVENT OF CHIMNEY FIRE, EVACUATE THE PROPERTY AND CALL THE EMERGENCY SERVICES. 
 
Your stove will be heavy and care needs to be taken when lifting - 2 people will normally be required to lift. 

 
UNPACKING 
 

Your stove will have several of its components stored inside the stove itself for transportation.  
 
Do NOT drag the stove on its legs – it must be carefully lifted into place. 
 
Inside you will find a glove which must be used when opening the door or when adjusting air vents when the fire is hot. 
 

INSTALLATION 
 

Installation of your stove must comply with relevant local and national Building Regulations and fire safety standards.
