Attention
Check the stove before installation to ensure that there has been no damage to the
functional parts (air regulators, seals, door, chimney connector, etc.) during transportation.
If you have noticed damage, please contact our customer service. The stove must not be
modified in any way.
Disposal of packaging
The packaging protects the stove from damage during transportation. The packaging
materials can be recycled. The wooden parts of the packaging can be used as firewood.
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of this Opus stove.
This manual will introduce you to the functions and correct operation of the stove. It is
important that your installer takes you through the operation of this stove during their
handover.
Our guarantee is valid only if the guidelines in this manual are carefully followed.
Please keep this manual, in order to remind yourself how to operate the stove before the
winter months.
1. Description
The stove is constructed with welded steel. In the centre is the firebox which is lined with
firebricks.
Beneath the cast iron grate is an ashpan and under that is wood storage.
This stove works on the principle of convection, in which cool air is drawn up from the floor
and warmed between the two outer walls of the stove. This warm air then spreads around
the room.
2. General
National and European standards, local construction regulations, fire protection law and
regulations must be observed.
It must be ensured that the installation room is adequately supplied with fresh air.
If extractor fans are present in the same, or connecting rooms as the stove, additional
ventilation should be given to allow for this.
4
Calculation of chimney set up should be done according to EN 13384-1 and EN 13384-2
with specific values which can be seen in this manual under the section 4.
Your stove can be equipped with a connection for
the external air supply. The required direct air kit is
available. In a room with controlled ventilation, the
stove can be a connected to an air supply from the
outside. In that case additional pressure monitoring
in the room is required.
The stove has been built with a self closing door mechanism.
This can be disabled by removing the spring from the door hinge.
If the combustion air is being supplied from the outside, the duct
size will need to be increased for any duct over two metres long
or any run containing 90 degree bends. The duct length should
not be longer than 6 metres with no more than three 90 degree
bends.
The chimney must be able to overcome the additional resistance
of the air intake ducting.
When the stove is out keep both regulators closed, in order for
cold air not to be able to circulate throughout the chimney. However, it can be
advantageous to open the air controls awhile before lighting the stove to allow warmer air
to begin going up the chimney.
Pay attention to the flue pipe.
The chimney draw must be a minimum of 12 pascals.
Due to the cold outside air, condensation can be avoided by insulating the flue pipe.
Your chimney significantly contributes to the proper working of your stove.
Recommendations:
• Working level of chimney: min. 5 meters
• Maximum diameter of flue 160 mm
• Any existing chimney should be examined by an expert

3. Installation of the Stove and the flue pipe connection
3.1. Flue pipe connection
All flue pipe that is used to connect the stove to the chimney must comply with national
regulations. All connections from the stove into the chimney must be firm and tightly
connected.
Be careful that flue pipe does not enter into the free section of the chimney.
Maintain the correct distances specified by building regulations between the flue pipe and
combustible material.
This appliance must never be connected to a shared flue system.
Attention: if the chimney pressure is too low or too high this may cause problems with the
working of the stove.
Outdoor air supply: if the deviation from the required pressure (section 4) is over 25%,
suitable changes to the chimney will need to be made before you can use and outdoor air
supply.
3.2. Safety rules
The appliance shall be installed on floors with an adequate load-bearing capacity. If an
existing construction doesn't meet these prerequisite, suitable measures (e.g. load
distributing plate) shall be taken to achieve it.
Pay attention to minimum distance required from the wall, combustible materials and to
protection of the floor.
