FLOOR PROTECTION
It is recommended that the appliance is installed on
a solid, level, concrete base of non combustible
hearth conforming to the current Building
Regulations and must extend 300mm in front of the
appliance, 150mm to the sides and 50mm from the

METERS
A suitable gas meter must be connected to the service pipe either by a representative of the gas board
or by an appointed contractor. If using an existing
meter have it checked to ensure that the meter is
capable of dealing with the total rate of gas needed.
GAS PIPE SIZE
It is important that the correct service pipe size be
used for adequate gas supply. This depends on the
distance between the supply meter and the appliance relative to the input requirements. The gas
supply to the appliance should be terminated near
the appliance with an approved safety type service
tap.
GAS CONNECTION
The stove has a ø8mm gas inlet connection located
underneath the underside of the burner as shown in
Fig 3. The stove is designed to accommodate the
routing of the gas feed pipe up through the base of
the stove. If the gas feed pipe is to be routed through
the back of the stove, a suitably sized hole can be
drilled in the steel body (away from the combustion
chamber) to accommodate same.
Note: An isolation tap must be fitted outside of
the stove and positioned to allow for ease
of access when required.

WARNING: Before connecting the stove make
sure the gas supply pipe is clear of grit and debris
as this will cause blockage within the stove control, pilot burner, injectors and pipework. Failure
to do so may void product warranty.
WARNING: Only connect to gas type indicated
on the rating plate.

FLUE INSTALLATION
NOTE: Only flue approved by Waterford Stanley
for this appliance may be used.
When installing the flue system the following must
be adhered to:
1. Flue terminals should be sited to ensure total
clearance of combustion products in
accordance with BS5440: Part 1 (latest
edition) - see Fig 7.
2. A terminal guard should be fitted to protect
against contact for any terminal less than 2
metres above any access from ground level,
balcony or flat roof.
3. The flue system must be constructed from
the appliance upwards, with all joints being
fully locked and sealed using the Waterford
Stanley specified parts.
4. Two types of flue terminals are available,
horizontal and vertical.
5. A Horizontal Flue Configuration should
comply with the following (see Fig 5):
* The horizontal flue run can not exceed the
vertical flue rise.
* Minimum vertical flue rise of 0.5 metres.
* Maximum vertical flue rise of 14.5 metres.
* Maximum horizontal flue run of 7.5 metres.
6. A Vertical Flue Configuration should
comply with the following (see Fig 6):
* Minimum vertical flue rise of 0.5 metres (from
top of unit before bend fitting).
* Maximum vertical flue rise of 15 metres.
* Maximum vertical flue rise reduced by 0.25
metres for every 45 degree bend fitted.
* Length of Vertical flue rise must be twice the
length of Horizontal flue run/offset.
GAS SOUNDNESS TESTING
Gas soundness testing should be in accordance
with I.S. 813 (I.E.) and B.S. 6891 (U.K.). Correct gas
pressure and proper gas supply pipe sizing is important for the successful performance of this stove.
Make sure that the plumber or gas supplier checks
the gas supply line and gas pressure at installation.
CAUTION: The stove must be isolated from gas
supply system during any gas soundness testing
at pressures in excess of 50 mbar
.
After testing gas supply pipe work, open the isolation
valve to stove and carry out gas soundness testing
at normal working pressure 20 mbar for natural gas
and 37 mbar for LPG models.
With the stove lighting carry out a leak test downstream of control using gas leak detection fluid.
CAUTION: If using a gas leak detection fluid for
leak testing DO NOT spray solution onto the control body.
7. Allow enough room above & to the side of
the stove to allow for connection & assembly
of the flue system to the top of the stove.
8. Depending on the flue height, a restrictor
plate may needed to be fitted to the inner
spigot (see Fig 4). The following details when
a restrictor plate needs to be fitted:

Note: House position & wind direction can
cause variances in the above guide lines
and if the glass starts to blacken, soot
forms on the logs or the flame pattern is
too small in height, a flue restrictor plate
will need to be fitted.
