The Flue

It is possible to remove the top chamber bafﬂe to access the ﬂue for cleaning. However we would advise that if at all possible an external cleaning access is provided. If the chimney has been lined with the same size ﬂue as the ﬂue pipe it will be possible to sweep from the ﬂue access point. If the ﬂue is of a larger size than the ﬂue pipe it may not be possible to use a sweeping brush of adequate size. In which case another cleaning access will be required. For detailed information see IN1173 The Wood and Mutlifuel Chimney and Installation Guide.

IMPORTANT

 The installation of this appliance must comply with all local regulations, including those referring to national and European Standards before it can be operated. The stove is not suitable for a shared ﬂue. However, for England and Wales, only, the coming into force on 1st April 2002 of SI 2002 No 440 exempts the householder from this legal requirement for the installation of solid fuel ﬁred appliance whose rated heat output is 50kW or less in a building having no more than 3 storeys (excluding any basement) if a Competent Engineer is employed who is registered under the Registration Scheme for Companies and Engineers involved in the Installation and Maintenance of Domestic Solid Fuel Fired Equipment operated by HETAS Ltd. These registered Competent Engineers may also carry out associated building work necessary to ensure that the installed appliance complies with Building Regulations without involving the Local Authority Building Control Department.

 Improper adjustment, alteration, maintenance or the ﬁtting of replacement parts not recommended by the manufacturer can cause injury or property damage. Do not operate the stove with faulty seals or damaged glass.

 Due to the high operating temperatures of this appliance it should be located away from pedestrian trafﬁc and away from furniture and draperies. Do not store paper or wood near the appliance. Any mats and rugs put in front of the stove should be ﬁre proof and secured to prevent the possibility of tripping.

 Advise all persons as to the stove’s high surface temperatures. If it is possible for children or inﬁrm adults to come into contact with the stove, ﬁt a suitable ﬁre guard.

 It is imperative that all air passageways into, out of, and within the appliance are kept clean. All permanent ventilation into the room provided for the stove must remain clear and unobstructed at all times. Consideration must be given to the need for extra ventilation if another heating source needing air is to be operated simultaneously. If an extraction fan is proposed to be ﬁtted to a connecting area of the house, after the stove has been installed, professional advice should be sought from a qualiﬁed engineer.

 The user should be advised that the appliance should be inspected regularly and the chimney cleaned at least annually. More frequent cleaning may be required and the advice of a qualiﬁed chimney sweep should be sought.

 Our range of stoves is capable of operating with outstanding efﬁciency if the ﬂue system is correct. Because so little heat is wasted to the ﬂue it is possible that moisture within the products of combustion will condense if the heat losses within the ﬂue way are too great and allow the ﬂue gases to cool. For this reason we recommend that the stove is ﬁtted with a suitable ﬂue liner, the same diameter as the ﬂue spigot, to prevent the possibility of acidic damage to the fabric of the chimney and damage to the stove which will reduce the longevity of the stove.

 When correctly installed, the stove is designed to produce heat, safely. It cannot do so if the installation is less than absolutely stable, constructed of materials suitable for such an installation and consideration has not been given to the possibility of people with less than ideal common sense operating it.

 Have the existing chimney swept by a chimney sweep. Although you will be lining the chimney, any deposits left in the chimney will cause problems and may become a ﬁre hazard.

 Your attention is drawn to the precautions and responsibilities under the Health and Safety at Work Acts, and whatever new legislation being introduced during the life of this document.

Housing Construction, When Using An Existing Chimney Breast.

Whilst it is almost certain that the fabric of an existing ﬁreplace and chimney will be non combustible and will have a hearth which conforming to the regulations, it should be inspected to ensure that it has not been modiﬁed by an over zealous “do it yourselfer”. The depth and width of the ﬁreplace should be measured to conﬁrm there is sufﬁcient room to ﬁt the stove, before removing any brickwork. Many upper ﬂoor chimney breasts house not only the ﬁre place but also the lower ﬂoor chimneys, and the depth is often much less than those of the ground ﬂoor. Before removing any brickwork, the covering plaster should be removed so that any lintels can be identiﬁed. There will probably be two, the ﬁrst supporting a few courses of bricks above the ﬁre back opening and a second, higher up, which may be in the form of arched brickwork or a reinforced concrete lintel, which spreads the weight of the complete chimney structure onto the chimney breast side walls. Removing this lintel without adequate replacement support may result in a catastrophic collapse of a large area of brickwork. Remove no brickwork until the main supporting lintel is identiﬁed and is conﬁrmed to be sound.

If the main supporting lintel is positioned high enough to accommodate the stove’s housing to give the required stove position, with the extra height necessary if air ducts are to be ﬁtted, the ﬁre back, surround, bricks and lower lintel can be removed. If no upper lintel can be observed, its condition is doubtful or it is found to be too low, a qualiﬁed builder should be brought in to install a new lintel. This is not something to be attempted by anyone without specialist knowledge and experience. With the ﬁreplace opened to its full size the chimney should be inspected. If the property is very old the cross sectional area may permit you to instal hot air ducts at the top of the chimney breast or even to extend the hot air ducts to another ﬂoor easily, but as before no brickwork should be removed unless you are experienced and qualiﬁed to understand the implications of modifying supporting structures. To afford the easiest access it is advisable to ﬁt the ﬂue liner before in ﬁlling the ﬁreplace. If the ﬂexible liner is to be lowered from the top, it is advisable to lower enough ﬂexible liner to allow the rigid to ﬂexible adapter and rigid pipe to be ﬁtted in relative comfort. Struggling with both arms fully extended into a black void, whilst holding a torch between you teeth is not the ideal way to ensure this joint is done perfectly which it needs to be if it is to be reliable.

Directly from the flue spigot a minimum 1 meter of stainless steel 316 or 1 meter Vitrious enamel flue pipe fitted prior to the flexible flue liner.
