INSERT STOVE INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
This insert is suitable for a standard 16” or 18” wide
by 22” high fireplace opening, it is also suitable for
most cast iron curved top fireplaces when used with
our curved backing plate, this is available as an
optional extra, see details in this manual.
When installing, operating and maintaining your
stove respect basic standards of fire safety. Read
these instructions carefully before commencing the
installation. Failure to do so may result in damage to
persons or property. Consult your local Municipal
office and your insurance representative to determine what regulations are in force. Save these
instructions for future reference.
Special care must be taken when installing the stove
such that the requirements of the Health & Safety at
Work Act are met.
Handling
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 with the skin wash immediately with
plenty of water.
Asbestos
This stove contains no asbestos. If there is a possibility of disturbing any asbestos in the course of
installation then please seek 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.
IMPORTANT WARNING: This stove must not be
installed into a chimney that serves any other
heating appliance.
2
NOTE: Please note that it is a legal requirement
under England & Wales Building Regulations that
the installation of the stove is either carried out
under Local Authority Building Control approval or
is installed by a Competent Person registered with
a Government approved Competent Persons
Scheme. HETAS Ltd operate such a Scheme and
a listing of their Registered Competent Persons
can be found on their website at www.hetas.co.uk.
PRE-INSTALLATION
After removing the stove from the packaging, open
the fire door and remove the loose packing. Prior to
installation all the internal components of the stove
are removed to gain access to fixings and to make it
lighter for installation.
Remove the refractory fire bricks, these bricks are
loose and just need to be lifted clear of the grate
support plate before they can be removed.
To remove the loose baffle, lift the front edge until it
hits the top and then slide it forward. Then drop the
rear edge and the baffle will slide down.
To remove the fixed baffle, loosen the two roof bolts,
support the baffle with one hand while removing the
L shaped brackets with the other hand, see Fig.1.
This will allow the baffle to drop down clear of the
roof bolts. The baffle will then slide back and down
to allow it to be removed from the stove, see
Fig.2A&B.
The installation must be completed in
accordance with current National and
European Standards and Local Codes. It
should be noted that the requirements and
these publications may be superseded during
the life of this manual.
Fig.1
Fig.2A
Do not overtighten the roof bolts when refitting the
baffle. It is adequate to leave them in a position
where the L shaped bracket has just enough room to
be removed.
To remove the cast iron liners, lift them clear of the
grate support plate and then move the front edge of
the casting towards the middle of the stove, and
clear of the back wall of the stove, then tilt the casting so that it can be removed diagonally through the
opening. Remove the flue spigot and gasket by
removing the four bolts.
Next, remove the grate by pushing it from underneath, the riddling bar is not fixed to the grate. This
will allow access to two M6 fixings which will attach
the stove to the outer casing. Remove the 2 fixings,
allowing the insert stove to be removed from the
external casing.
CHIMNEY
THIS PRODUCT IS SUITABLE FOR CHIMNEY
INSTALLATION ONLY.
The stove is a radiant room heater and must be connected to a chimney of the proper size and type. For
ROI the chimney must have a diameter of at least
125mm. It is recommended that a flue liner of diameter 125mm be used to line the chimney, the liner
should be approved for use with solid fuel. See
Fig.3.
For the UK the chimney must have a diameter of at
least 150mm, an adaptor is available where required
to fit between the flue outlet and a 6” flexible flue
liner.
Never connect to a smaller size chimney. Do not
connect to a chimney serving another appliance.
Minimum chimney height 4.5 meters from floor on
which stove is installed.
It is permitted to connect using a closure plate and a
connection piece from the stove to the closure plate
(See Fig. 4), provided that the chimney is of sound
Fig.2B
construction with no leaks or cracks, a clay flue liner
has been used that can withstand up to 1000oC, the
clay liner has a diameter no greater than 200mm.
The chimney must be swept and examined for
soundness and suitability before the appliance is
installed. Remedial action should be taken if
required, seeking expert advice if necessary.
Chimneys must conform to BS EN 15287-1:2007:
Design, installation and commissioning of chimneys.
ALL FLUE INSTALLATIONS ARE THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF THE CUSTOMER.
The stove must be connected to a chimney with a
minimum continuous draught of 12 Pascal’s. Poor
draught conditions will result in poor performance.
Fig.3
Note:-
If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire, then the
chimney should be swept one month after
installation to clear any soot falls which may have
occurred due to the difference in combustion
between the stove and the open fire.
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
Fully Lined Chimney
Step 1
Prepare the fireplace area with millner brick removal.
Ensure the opening is suitable for fitting of the insert
stove opening required, i.e. remove fire surround
trim if fitted. See Fig.4.

Fig.4
550mm - 575mm
405mm - 455mm
240mm - 320mm
Min 380mm
Step 2
Ensure the floor area is level with the hearth, this
area needs to be level as the insert fire is screw
fixed to the floor.
Step 3
Lay the external casing into the opening and position it so that the front edge protrudes 20mm past
the front edge of the opening.
Step 4
Mark the drill locations and drill the holes using a
5.5mm drill bit. Fix the casing to the floor using the
self tapping screws provided.
Step 5
Lift the stove into the external casing. Remove all
internal parts as per pre-assembly instructions prior
to lifting it. The stove can be lifted into the casing
approximately 75mm first and then it can be pushed
into the final position while taking care to lift the front
edge to preserve the hearth.
Step 6
Drop the flexi flue liner down through the chimney
and into the stove.
Step 7
Lay the sealing gasket on to the flue spigot, then fit
the flue spigot to the end of the flexi flue liner using
the grub screws provided.
Step 8
Then using the M6 x 10mm screws secure the stove
to the convection chamber. Push the insert stove
against the fireplace before fully tightening these
bolts.
Step 9
Pull the flexi liner back up through the flue outlet and
fix the flue spigot into position using the M8 bolts
provided. It may be necessary to cut a prop to hold
4
the spigot in place while the fixings are being
attached.
Step 10
Complete the installation of the flexi flue at the top of
the chimney in accordance with the manufacturers
instructions.
NOT FULLY LINED CHIMNEY (Using Closure
Plate & Pipe Extension)
Fig.6
Step 1
Prepare the fireplace area with millner brick
removal. Ensure the opening is suitable for fitting of
the insert stove opening required, i.e. remove fire
surround trim if fitted. See Fig.4.
Step 2
Ensure the floor area is level with the hearth, this
area needs to be level as the insert fire is screw
fixed to the floor.
Step 3
Measure the distance to the flue outlet of the stove
and compare to the chimney, decide on best orientation of the offset adaptor.
