2.3. Siting the stove

The hearth on which the stove is to be installed must
comply with Current Building Regulations.
A fresh air inlet must be provided in order to allow efficient
combustion and to avoid a vacuum effect being created in
the room ; air extractors and fans must not be used in the
same room or adjoining room to the installation.
This stove is not designed to be built in, and an air space
of at least 150 mm must be left all around the stove.
Ensure that appliance and flue pipe are clear of
combustible materials.
The stove should be level. Sufficient access for chimney
sweeping and appliance cleaning must be provided.

2.4. The chimney

The chimney must be in good condition free from cracks
and blockages and should not have an excessive cross
sectional area. If problems are encountered expert advice
should be sought regarding the necessity of having the
chimney lined. Should it be found necessary to line the
chimney, a lining suitable for solid fuel must be used. If the
appliance is to be fitted in a room where there is no existing
chimney a prefabricated block chimney or a twin walled
insulated stainless steel flue to B.S 4543 can be used
either internally or externally. The internal diameter must
not be less than 150 mm (6 inches). These flues must be
fitted in accordance with the manufacturers instructions
and Building regulations.
Before connecting the appliance to an existing flue, the
flue must be swept and checked. In order for the appliance
to perform satisfactorily the chimney height should not be
less than 5 metres measured vertically from the outlet of
the stove to the top of the flue terminal. Should there be
excessive draught in the chimney it may be necessary to
fit a draught stabliliser.
