PRE-INSTALLATION
REQUIREMENTS
WARNING!
You run the risk of serious health problems if the
products of combustion enter the property.
PLEASE CHECK THE FOLLOWING:
Any existing chimney/flue system must be
confirmed as suitable for this appliance as defined
in Building Regulations Document J. It must be
swept and inspected, by a competent person (see
notes), to confirm that is structurally sound and free
from cracks and obstructions. The diameter of the
Flue should not be less than Ø127mm and not more
than Ø200mm. Do not connect to systems that have
large voids or spaces. If any of these requirements
are not met, the chimney should be lined by a
suitable method.
If the chimney is suspected of previously serving an
open fire it must be swept again, within a month of
regular use, to clear any soot that may have been
dislodged due to the variation in combustion levels
and higher flue gas temperature levels. The
chimney/flue system exit must comply with Building
Regulations Document J. The minimum height of
the chimney/flue system must be 4.5 metres from
the hearth to the top exit. There must be no
horizontal sections and must not have more than 4
bends. These bends must have angles of 45° or less.
Make provision to remove the appliance without
affecting the chimney/flue system. Make provision
to access the chimney/flue system for cleaning and
the removal of debris. If there is no existing
chimney then either a prefabricated block chimney
in accordance with Building Regulations Approved
Document J, or a twin-walled insulated stainless
steel flue to BS4543 can be used. These chimneys
must be fitted in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions and Building
Regulations. New masonry and flue block chimneys
must meet the requirements of Building
Regulations Document J. Any connecting flue pipe

A FAULTY INSTALLATION CAN CAUSE DANGER, ILL HEALTH AND EVEN DEATH TO THE INHABITANTS AND POSSIBLY
COMPROMISE THE STRUCTURE OF THE BUILDING.
COMPETENT PERSONS SCHEME
Members of the following schemes may self-certify the installation of this stove. If the installer is not a
member of one of these schemes, your local Building Control Department must approve the installation.
Air Supply
The room or space containing this appliance should
have purpose provided ventilation (where
necessary) in accordance with Building Regulations.
Due consideration should be given to air
requirements for any other appliance in the same
room or space.
Any air opening must be kept clear from blockage
or obstruction.
Chimney
The chimney height and the position of the chimney
terminal should conform to Building Regulations.
Check that the chimney is in good condition, dry,
free from cracks and obstructions. The diameter of
the flue should not be less than 127mm and not
more than 200mm. If any of these requirements are
not met, the chimney should be lined by a suitable
method.
If there is no existing chimney then either a
prefabricated block chimney in accordance with
Building Regulations Approved Document J, or a
twin-walled insulated stainless steel flue to BS EN
1856 can be used. These chimneys must be fitted in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions
and Building Regulations.
10
If the chimney is believed to have previously served
an open fire installation, it is possible that the higher
flue gas temperature from the stove may loosen
deposits that were previously firmly adhered, with
the consequent risk of flue blockage. It is therefore
recommended that the chimney be swept a second
time within a month of regular use after installation.
If you have any doubts about the suitability of your
chimney, consult your local dealer/stockist.
Connection to the Chimney
The chimney must be swept before connection to
the stove.
An existing fireplace opening can be bricked up or
sealed with a register plate.
A short length of flue pipe of minimum 127mm
internal diameter may then be used to connect the
stove to the chimney. This flue pipe should be made
of 316 grade stainless steel or vitreous enamelled
steel, nominal thickness 1.2mm.
Ensure that the pipe end is no closer than 76mm to
the chimney walls.
The length of any horizontal run of flue pipe must
not exceed 125mm.
It is essential that all connections between the stove
and chimney-flue are sealed and made airtight.
Both the chimney and flue pipe must be accessible
for cleaning and if ANY part of the chimney cannot
be reached through the stove (with baffle removed),
a soot door must be fitted in a suitable position.
Flue Draught
If the draught exceeds the recommended maximum,
a draught stabiliser must be fitted so that the rate of
burning can be controlled and to prevent over firing.
If the reading is less than the recommended
minimum then the performance of the appliance
will be compromised.
The flue draught should be checked under fire at
high output.
Minimum Draught – 1.2mm Water Gauge
Maximum Draught – 2.5mm Water Gauge
Air Supply
The room or space containing this appliance should
have purpose provided ventilation (where
necessary) in accordance with Building Regulations.
Due consideration should be given to air
requirements for any other appliance in the same
room or space.
Any air opening must be kept clear from blockage or
obstruction.
Hearth/ Material Clearances
Your stove must be installed on a floor with
adequate load-bearing capacity, otherwise suitable
measures should be taken. Use the adjusting screws
in the feet to level the stove. The stove can be
recessed into a suitably sized fireplace. Ensure there
is a free air gap of at least 150mm above and 50mm
around the sides and rear of the stove.
Where possible it is recommended that a free air
gap of 150mm or more is left around the sides of the
stove to obtain maximum heat output and to gain
access to the rear of the stove.

Operating Instructions
Secondary
Air
Primary
Air
This appliance is not suitable for use in a shared flue
Tertiary Air
Tertiary air aids in good secondary combustion of
the fuel and reducing emissions into the chimney
and environment.
Operation with the door open can cause excess
smoke. This appliance must not be operated with
the door open
Aerosol Sprays
Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove
when it is alight.
Air Controls
This stove has been designed to burn far more
efficiently than a traditional stove, with the obvious
notable feature of clean glass. However, for this
product to work properly it must be used correctly.
To prevent excess smoke emissions, the air controls
of this appliance must only be operated as directed
in the instructions. It is essential that the stove has
an adequate air supply for combustion and
ventilation.
Tertiary air can be controlled by adjusting the cover
plate on the back of the stove.
Warning! - This Appliance will be hot when in
operation and due care should be taken.
We advise that suitable gloves are used when
operating the Primary and Secondary air controls,
and when opening the door.
Primary Air
Primary air is controlled via the slider in the door.
The amount of air can be increased by moving the
slider to the right. The slider can be unlocked from
its position by twisting the control knob anticlockwise. Once the slider is in the desired position
it can be locked by turning the control knob
clockwise.
This provides a conventional air draught to the bed
of the fire.
Secondary Air
Secondary air is controlled via the slider above the
door; it is this “Airwash” that keeps a clean and
uninterrupted view of the fire. The amount of air
can be increased by moving the slider to the right.
13
Riddling Grate
Your Eco Ideal Stove is fitted with a locomotive
type grate. So that de-ashing can be carried out
cleanly and easily, it is riddled from the outside of
the stove with the doors closed. The grate is
designed to burn both wood and solid mineral
fuels.
GRATE OPERATION & BURNING WOOD LOGS
Place the operating tool over the riddling spigot and
push the operating tool up and away from you.
When left in this position, air is restricted through
the bed of the fire providing a solid base to build up
a bed of ash. Surplus ash can be removed either by
gentle riddling or with a shovel.
GRATE OPERATION & BURNING SOLID
MINERAL FUELS
Place the operating tool over the riddling spigot and
pull it down towards you. When left in that position,
air is directed under and up through the slots in the
fire bed, giving the optimum conditions for burning
solid fuels. It is important that the riddling tool is
used to remove the ash to ensure airflow through
the fire bed and allow the fire to burn over the
entire area of the grate. The ashpan should be
emptied at least daily and ash should never be
allowed to build up over a period of time as this will
result in damage to the fire bars. The flat end of the
riddling tool can be used to carry the ashpan. It
might prove beneficial, when burning more reactive
fuels, to leave the grate in a “neutral” position, thus
directing some under fire air and some over fire air
to the fire bed.
LIGHTING THE APPLIANCE
First, load the fire with starting fuel, i.e. paper, dry
sticks and/or firelighters in the mode chosen, either
wood or solid mineral fuel. Light the fire at the base
leaving all air controls open. Allow the fuel to reach
a steady glow and build the fire up gradually. Once
you have a good fire established across the grate
bed, further fuel can be added as required.
LOADING THE APPLIANCE (WOOD)
With a full load of wood, the stove will need to be
refuelled approximately once every hour and a half.
Wood can be stacked higher in the stove than solid
mineral fuel but care must be taken that logs do not
touch the baffle.
LOADING THE APPLIANCE (SOLID MINERAL FUEL)
Solid mineral fuel should be placed in the stove so
that there is no more than a 30° incline of the fuel
bed from front to back. It should not be stacked
touching the rear edge of the baffle as this may
result in damage to the stove.
With a full load of fuel, the stove will need to be
refuelled approximately once every 4 hours
AIR CONTROLS (WOOD)
Wood burns most efficiently with the primary air
control in the closed position and the secondary air
control approximately 60% open. Moving the
secondary air control will control the burn rate of
the Stove.
The secondary air control should not be completely
closed unless the primary air lever is also in the
closed position.
Wood burns best on a bed of ash and it is therefore
only necessary to remove surplus ash from on top of
the grate occasionally. Do not let the ash level under
the grate reach above the primary air inlet. If
allowed to build-up, ash will stifle the airflow
through the grate.
Burn only dry, well-seasoned wood, which should
have been cut, split and stacked for at least 12
months, with free air movement around the sides of
14
the stack to enable it to dry out. Burning wet or
unseasoned wood will create tar deposits in the
stove and chimney and will not produce a
satisfactory heat output.
AIR CONTROLS (SOLID MINERAL FUEL)
Solid mineral fuel burns most efficiently with the
secondary air control in the closed position. Always
de-ash before refuelling and do not let the ash level
reach the underside of the grate bars.
Solid mineral fuel produces ash, which if allowed to
build-up will stifle the airflow through the Primary
air inlets and grate. This will eventually cause the
fire to die.
With some solid mineral fuels a residue of burnt fuel
or clinker will accumulate on the grate, allow the
fire to go out periodically to remove this.
IMPORTANT!
We cannot stress firmly enough how important it is
to empty the ashpan regularly. Air passing through
the fire bed cools the grate bars. Distortion or
burning out the grate bars is nearly always caused
by ash being allowed to build up to the underside of
the grate.
EXTENDED BURNING (SOLID MINERAL FUEL)
The stove can be banked up for extended burning.
When burning solid fuel, empty the ashpan. Open
air controls and let the fire burn brightly for a short
period. Refuel and close both air controls, the exact
setting required will depend on the fuel used and
the chimney draw so some practice may be
necessary. To revive the fire, open the air controls
until the fire is burning brightly de-ash if necessary
and refuel. Set air controls as required.
REDUCED COMBUSTION
In order to reduce the combustion of the fire to a
minimum, close the primary air controls, then close
the secondary air slider by moving the handle all the
way to the left. If the controls are left in this
position, the fire will receive the minimum of air and
will die down. If you want to revive the fire it is
recommended that the Primary Air control is open
first and then open the secondary air slider.
REFUELING
Add the new fuel to the fire and open both air
controls fully to allow flames to establish on the
new fuel. Once the fire is established and the logs
are blackened, set the primary air control to its
closed position and adjust the secondary air to give
the desired heat output.
Never leave the stove unattended until you are
certain that the flames are fully established.
Avoid refuelling on to a low fire bed as this may
cause excessive smoke emission. Ensure there are
sufficient embers to ignite the new fuel rapidly.
Alternatively add some more kindling before adding
larger pieces of firewood. Do not add firewood
above the level of the tertiary air inlets on the sides
of the stove. Exceeding this amount can result in the
production of excessive smoke.
EXTINGUISHING THE FIRE
In order to reduce the rate of combustion, close the
primary air lever and then the secondary air lever by
moving the handles all the way to the left. If the
controls are left in this position, the fire will be
starved of air and go out. If you want to revive the
fire it is recommended that the primary air control is
opened first, then open the secondary air slider.
WARNING!
The stove will remain hot for a considerable time
after the fire has been extinguished

logs.
CLEAN AIR ACT 1993 AND SMOKE CONTROL AREAS
Under the Clean Air Act 1993 local authorities may
declare the whole or part of the district of the
authority to be a smoke control area. It is an offence
to emit smoke from a chimney of a building, from a
furnace or from any fixed boiler if located in a
designated smoke control area. It is also an offence
to acquire an "unauthorised fuel" for use within a
smoke control area unless it is used in an "exempt"
appliance ("exempted" from the controls which
generally apply in the smoke control area).
The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and
Rural Affairs has powers under the Act to authorise
smokeless fuels or exempt appliances for use in
smoke control areas in England. In Scotland and
Wales this power rests with Ministers in the
devolved administrations for those countries.

COMMISSIONING AND
HANDOVER
APPLIANCE CHECK
Please check that all components are correctly
assembled and working correctly.
Ensure the Door Catch mechanism is adjusted
correctly and the 12mm Rope Seals around the door
are air tight and sealing.
Ensure the Air Controls are working correctly.
Eco Ideal Stoves recommend that you carry out a
smoke draw test to check the soundness of the
chimney/flue system and seals:
Place a Smoke Pellet in the centre of the Grate,
ensure that all of the Air Controls are fully open and
close the Door.
A small fire can now be lit and allow the appliance to
heat up slowly ensuring that no products of
combustion enter into the room. When the
appliance has reached working temperature open
the Door and carry out a spillage test using a smoke
match around the door opening.
If there is excessive spillage please allow the
appliance to cool and then re-check the
chimney/flue system and ventilation.
Do not run the stove at full output for at least 24
hours.
On completion of the commissioning:
Upon completion, allow a suitable period of time for
any fire cement and mortar to dry out. A small fire
may then be lit and checked to ensure the smoke
and fumes are taken from the stove up the chimney
and emitted safely to atmosphere. Do not run the
stove at full output for at least 24 hours.
The smoke should now be drawn up the chimney
and you should be able to see it exit from the
chimney/flue terminal.
We recommend that you do this test with all of the
windows and doors, to the room where the
appliance is fitted, closed.
If there any adjoining room(s) that have an Extractor
Fan fitted, open the adjoining door to ensure that
the chimney/flue system is not compromised when
the fan is operating.
If there is a ceiling fan fitted in the room please
operate it and ensure that it does not affect the
operation of the chimney/flue system.
If any of these tests fail, please re-check the

MAINTENANCE &
SERVICING
WARNING!
NO unauthorised modification of this appliance
should be carried out.
IMPORTANT!
STOVE BODY
The stove is finished with a heat resistant paint and
this can be cleaned with a soft brush. Do not clean
whilst the stove is hot; wait until it has cooled down.
At no point should any water based or other
cleaning products be used on the stove. The finish
can be renovated with a propriety high temperature
stove paint.
In order to ensure continued compliance with
current Building Regulations and Local Authority
Byelaws, this appliance requires regular
maintenance by a competent person.
N.B. Refer to the ‘Removing Internal Components’
section of the installation instructions for details on
how to remove each component.
PERIODS OF PROLONGED NON-USE
If the stove is to be left unused for a prolonged
period, then it should be given a thorough clean to
remove ash and unburned fuel residues. To enable a
good flow of air through the appliance to reduce
condensation and subsequent damage, leave the air
controls fully open. To stop the handle from seizing
leave the door ajar. If the appliance has been
unused for a long period, such as during the spring
and summer months, a competent person should
check the chimney for potential obstructions before
lighting the stove i.e. get the chimney swept before the start of the heating season.
BAFFLE
This should be removed and cleaned at least once a
month to prevent any build-up of soot or fly ash that
could lead to blocked flue ways and dangerous fume
emission. If the baffle is removed the chimney/flue
way can be swept through the appliance.
GLASS PANEL(S)
Clean the glass panel when cool with a propriety
glass cleaner. Highly abrasive substances should be
avoided as these can scratch the glass and make
subsequent cleaning more difficult. Wet logs on
heated glass, a badly aimed poker or heavy
slamming of the doors could crack the glass panels.
The glass will not fracture from heat. Should you
need to replace a glass panel please ensure you
purchase a new Gasket at the same time. . Please
check periodically that the glass clips and screws
have not become loose. They should only be finger
tight to allow for the expansion and contraction of
the glass.
GASKETS
All gasket used on this appliance are produced from
a heat resistant material called Manniglas. Over
time you may find that the gasket changes colour.
This is due to a reduction in the pigment used in the
manufacture of the product, and is no cause for
concern
FIREBRICKS
In normal use, these can last for many years. It is
possible however, to crack them if logs are
continually jammed against them or if they are
frequently struck with a poker. Check periodically
for seriously cracked bricks, which can be replaced
with new; available from your dealer or our spares
website www.hunterstoves.co.uk.
18
DOOR CATCH
Should the door catch require adjustment, please
follow the procedure below:
Open the Door. Slacken the M6 grub screw, on the
underside of the Handle Boss. Turn the inside catch
shaft one turn clockwise, this will achieve a tighter
lock when the door is closed. Re-tighten the M6
grub screw. Close and test the operation of the
Handle mechanism.
ROPE
Check the 12mm rope around the door. If rope is
becoming detached, use Eco Ideal Stoves rope glue
to reattach it. If the rope is in a poor condition, a
replacement rope kit may be ordered from the Eco
Ideal Stoves spares range.
CHIMNEY & FLUE WAYS
It is important that the chimney, flue ways and any
connecting flue pipe are swept regularly. This means
at least once a year for smokeless fuels and at least
twice a year for wood and other fuels.
The baffle will need to be removed from its supports
in order to sweep the chimney. Only wire-centred
sweeps’ brushes fitted with a guide wheel should be
used. If it is not possible to sweep all parts of the
chimney through the appliance, ensure there is
adequate access to cleaning doors. If the stove is
fitted in place of an open fire, then the chimney
should be swept one month after installation to
clear any soot falls which may have occurred due to
the difference in combustion between the stove and
the open fire.
SEASONAL USE
If the appliance has been unused for a long period of
time, such as during the spring and summer months,
the chimney should be checked for potential
obstructions by a competent person before lighting
the stove.
DE-ASHING
De-ashing should be carried out on a regular basis to
avoid a buildup of ash and ensure sufficient primary
air flow. Empty the ashpan regularly to prevent ash
reaching the underside of the great bars.
ANNUAL SERVICE
Eco Ideal Stoves recommend that this appliance is
serviced annually, preferably prior to the start of the
heating season, thus avoiding any delay in receiving
replacement components, should you need them. I
you feel unable to undertake this task, Eco Ideal
Stoves recommend that you contact the installation
engineer for advice.

Riddling Bars, Cam Bar, Catch Bar, Ashpan, Side
Plates and Baffle. Clean them with a wire brush and
inspect them for damage.

using a scraper or wire brush.
Inspect these surfaces for damage/corrosion.
If corrosion or damage is found we advise that you
consult with your installer about rectification/repair.
Brush out or vacuum the inside of the appliance and
re-fit the internal components.
Inspect the Glass and Gasket. Clean the Glass with a
non-abrasive cleaner if required. If the Gasket is
torn or damaged we recommend that is replaced to
ensure that no products of combustion enters the
room when the appliance is used.
Brush down the outer surface and touch up the
paint if necessary.
Burn the appliance at a low rate, after maintenance,
to allow any new seals, paint or glue cure properly.
The appliance may emit unpleasant odours during
this process, please ensure the room is well
ventilated.
