1.4. Description

The Belfort balanced flue stove has been individually
designed to add traditional charm and character to your
home. Providing a highly efficient heat source, the
appliance has the look and charm of a ‘real’ stove
coupled with the convenience of clean burning gas.

The stove is designed to run off Natural or LPG gas. It
is important to note that once a type of gas has been
specified the stove cannot run off any other type. The
type of gas that your stove is capable of burning is
stated on the data information panel under the stove.

The appliance is a “Balanced flue gas stove”, which is
a term used to describe a sealed combustion system in
which the inlet air and exhaust gases enter and exit
through two separate concentric passageways within
thesamesealedventsystem.

The Balanced flue system allows the gas appliance to
be vented directly to the outside atmosphere through a
suitable outside wall, unlike conventional venting
systems that take the inlet air from the room and vent
the exhaust vertically through the roof to the
atmosphere.

2.Installation instructions

This balanced flue gas stove is designed to run on
either natural gas or LPG. The burner unit is not
interchangeable between gas types.

The stove is a radiant convector fuel effect stove with a
balancedfluesystem.The Belfort can be placeddirectly
inside any fireplace opening of the dimensions noted
within the installation instructions, providing it is on a
suitable outside wall.

These instructions have been compiled in accordance
with EN 613 1995.

It is required by law that any appliance using natural or
LPG gas is installed by a competent person (e.g.
CORGI registe red), in conjunction with these
instructions and the requirements as laid down in the
following Regulations and British Standards :

- The Gas safety (Installation and Use) Regulations

1994 amended 1996.

- The Building Regulations (issued by the department of

the Environment).

- The Building Standards (Scotland) (Consolidation)

Regulations.

APPLIANCE TO BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE
TO NATIONAL & LOCAL REGULATIONS.

Ensure that the s tove corresponds to the type of gas
withwhichitistobeused.Thiscanbeconfirmedby
checking the data badge located underneath the
appliance.

All surfaces except the control knob are considered to
be working surfaces.

2.1.Siting the appliance

Theappliancemustbesitednext to an adjacent exterior
wall.

The gas supply connection to the appliance is at the
rear right hand side. The connection requires 8 mm
diameter semi-rigid pipe, not more than 1 metre in
length.

2.1.1. Clearance requirements

If the appliance has to be located in an opening, there
must be a clearance of at least 50 mm at the left hand
of the appliance, 50 mm at the back of the appliance
and 50 mm above from any non-combustible materials
(as shown in figure 3).

This distancemustbe extendedtoamininumclearance
of 80 mm from any combustible materials.

There should ideally be a minimum gap of 150 mm at
the right hand side of the stove (this will ensure the best
possibleaccesstothecontrolknob). This measurement
may be reduced to a minimum gap of 100 mm if needed
however extra care should be taken when operating the
control knob when the appliance is hot.

A combustible shelf may be fitted over the appliance,
providedthatinthe case of a 150 mmorlessdeepshelf,
there is at least 250 mm clearance above the top of the
stove. The shelf depth may increase at the same rate
as the increase in clearance ; i.e. a shelf depth of
200 mm would require a clearance of 300 mm.
