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 17.

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 12/13.

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.

PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION AND OPERATION. KEEP THESE

INSTRUCTIONS IN A SAFE PLACE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE AND SERVICING.

THIS APPLIANCE WILL BECOME VERY HOT WHEN USED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS,

HUNTER STOVES RECOMMEND THAT AN APPROVED GUARD IS USED TO PROTECT THE YOUNG, ELDERLY

OR INFIRM FROM HARM.

THE INSTALLER COMMISSIONING SHEET CAN BE FOUND ON THE BACK COVER. PLEASE ENSURE THAT IT IS

COMPLETED PRIOR TO USE.

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.

REMOVING INTERNAL COMPONENTS

All internal components must be removed prior to fitting the stove. This will make handling the stove easier; allow access to fixings and the flue outlet; as well as protect the internal components from damage during the installation process.

1. Open the door and remove the ashpan.

2. Remove the grate bars by lifting the front up

off the cam bar and sliding forward off the rear grate support and lift out of the firebox.

3. Remove the cam bar by lifting the left-hand

end of it upwards until it clears the side casting. Pull the left-hand end towards the front of the stove and then slide all the way out. Take care not to lose the cam hole plate.

PRE-INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

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 Ø125mm (Kestrel, Hawk 3 & 4, Herald 4, 5C, 5S, 8S) or 152mm (Herald 6, Low/High Output Inglenook, 8/14) and not more than Ø200mm or Ø230mm. 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 and should terminate in accordance with Table 1.

CONNECTION TO THE CHIMNEY

An existing fireplace opening can be bricked up or sealed with a register plate. A short length of flue pipe of minimum 125mm (Kestrel, Hawk 3 & 4, Herald 4, 5C, 5S, 8S) or 152mm (Herald 6, Low/High Output Inglenook, 8/14) 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 or 152mm (as above). It is essential that all connections between the stove and chimney-flue are sealed and made airtight.

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 systems must also meet these regulations.

Please check the suitability of the fireplace and/or surround for use with this appliance before installing it. If you have any doubts about the suitability of your chimney, consult your local Dealer/Stockist or Installation Engineer. 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.
