SMOKE CONTROL AREAS

This stove has been designed and assembled so that it may be used to burn wood logs in a Smoke
Control Area. Find out if you are in a Smoke Control Area by contacting your Local Authority.

The Eco Di Lusso R4 Cube, R5 Cube and R6 Cube are only exempt for use in a smoke control area when
fitted with a smoke control area kit R4 – JDLU0401 and R5/R6 – JDLU0501. Without the permanent stop
in place the appliance is not an exempt appliance and so may leave the householder liable for a fine up
to £1000.

General Guidance

It is important that your stove is correctly installed and operated as Hunter Stoves Group cannot accept
responsibility for any fault arising through incorrect installation, use, maintenance or servicing.

These instructions cover the basic principles to ensure satisfactory installation of the stove, although
detail may need slight modification to suit particular local site conditions.

The installation must comply with current Building Regulations, National and European Standards,
Local Authority Byelaws and other specifications or regulations as they affect the installation of the
appliance.

The Building Regulations requirements may also be met by adopting the relevant recommendations in
the current issues of British Standards BS 8303 and BS EN 15287-1.

Only use approved fuels on this appliance. Information about this can be found on Page 20.
This is a Domestic Appliance and must only be used in accordance with these instructions. Do not place

articles that are affected by high temperatures on, or near, this appliance. Do not place furniture or
other items within 1 metre of the front of this appliance. See the note on material clearances on pages
13 - 16.

Fitting a stove in a room which also contains an extractor fan and/or cooker hood should be avoided
where possible. If this is unavoidable, the suitability of the space for fitting this appliance must be
decided at the discretion of a qualified installer, and a flue draught interference test must be
performed.

Do not obstruct the ventilation required for the safe use of this appliance.

Competent Persons Scheme

Hunter Stoves Group recommend that this stove is installed by a member of an accredited competent
persons scheme e.g. HETAS.

If the installer is not a member of a competent person’s scheme, it is a legal requirement, in the UK, to

notify your Local Building Control Officer in advance of any installation work starting.

Health and Safety Precautions

Special care must be taken when installing the stove such that the requirements of the Health and
Safety at Work Act are met.

Handling

This appliance is very heavy. Adequate facilities must be available for loading, unloading and site
handling.

Fire Cement

Some types of fire cement are caustic and should not be allowed to come into contact with the skin. In
case of contact, wash immediately with plenty of water.

This stove contains no asbestos. If there is a possibility of disturbing any asbestos in the course of
installation, then please seek specialist guidance and use appropriate protective equipment.

Metal Parts

When installing or servicing this stove, care should be taken to avoid the possibility of personal injury.

Modification

No unauthorised modification of this appliance should be carried out.

Safety

WARNING – This appliance will be hot when in operation and due care should be taken. The supplied

operating tool or glove may be used to open the door and operate the air controls.

Aerosols

Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is alight.

Fireguards

Always use a fireguard in the presence of children, the elderly or the infirm. The fireguard should be
manufactured in accordance with BS8423 – Fireguards for use with solid fuel appliances.

Do Not Over-Fire

It is possible to fire the stove beyond its design capacity. This could damage the stove so watch for signs
of over-firing. If any part of the stove starts to glow red, the stove is in an over-fire situation and the
controls should be adjusted accordingly.

Never leave the stove unattended for long periods without first adjusting the controls to a safe setting.
Careful air supply control should be exercised at all times.

Fume Emission

Properly installed, operated, this appliance will not emit fumes. Occasional fumes from de-ashing and
refuelling may occur. Persistent fume emission must not be tolerated.

This appliance should not be operated with the door open.

If fume emission persists, then the following immediate action should be taken: -

➢ Open doors and windows to ventilate the room.
➢ Let the fire go out or eject and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance.
➢ Check for flue/chimney blockage and clean if required.
➢ Do not attempt to re-light the fire until the cause of the fume emission has been identified and

corrected.

If necessary, seek expert advice.

Adverse Weather

In a small number of installations, occasional local weather conditions (e.g. wind from a particular
direction) may cause downdraught in the flue and cause the stove to emit fumes. In these
circumstances, the stove should not be used. A professional flue installer will be able to advice on
solutions to this problem (e.g. anti-downdraught cowl).

Carbon Monoxide Detector

Hunter Stoves recommend a Carbon Monoxide Detector that conforms to the latest issue of BS EN
50292 is placed in the same room as the appliance. The installation of such an alarm is not considered
as a substitute for regular maintenance or servicing or the appliance and Flue system.

IN THE EVENT OF A CHIMNEY FIRE:

➢ Raise the alarm
➢ Call the Fire Brigade
➢ Close appliance air controls
➢ Move furniture, ornaments etc. away
➢ Place a fireguard in front of stove
➢ Check the chimney breast for signs of excessive heat.

If the wall is becoming excessively hot, move furniture away.
Ensure the Fire Brigade can gain access to your roof space in order to check for fire spread.
