IMPORTANT OPERATION / MAINTENANCE NOTES
Now that your Stanley Solid Fuel Stove is installed and no doubt you are looking forward to many comforts it will provide, we would like to give you some tips on how to get the best results from your stove.
1. We would like if you could take some time to read the operating instructions/hints, which we are confident, will be of great benefit to you.
2. Do not burn fuel with a high moisture content, such as a damp peat or unseasoned timber. This will only result in a build up of tar in the stove and in the chimney.
3. IMPORTANT: The first few fires should be relatively small to permit the refractory to set properly and season the stove. During these firings it is recommended to ventilate the room as an unpleasant (not toxic) odour may be emitted as the paint is completing curement.
4. Inspect the flue-ways of the stove weekly and ensure that there are no blockages. Check flue ways before lighting especially after a shut down period. Please see chimney cleaning section.
5. Before loading fresh fuel into the firebox, riddle fully to remove all ashes. This will allow better and cleaner burning. See Re-Fuelling section.
6. Never allow a build up of ashes in the ash pan, as this will cause the grate to burn out prematurely. Empty the ashpan when refuelling.
7. Avoid slow burning of damp or unseasoned fuel as this will result in tarring flue ways and chim­ney i.e. peat or timber.
8. Allow adequate air ventilation to ensure plenty of air for combustion.
9. Do not burn rubbish/household plastic.
10. Clean the chimney at least twice a year.
11. Burning soft fuels such as timber and peat will stain the glass. Regular cleaning will prevent permanent staining. Clean with soapy water when cool.
12. Keep all combustible materials a safe distance away from unit, please see section for clearances to combustibles.
13. Never use aerosol spray near the appliance when it is in operation.
14. For safety reasons never leave children or the elderly unaccompanied while stove is in use. Use a fire guard.
15. Avoid contact with the appliance when in use as stove reaches very high operating temperatures.
16. This appliance should be regularly maintained by a competent service engineer.

THE CARA+ SOLID FUEL BOILER STOVE
INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
When installing, operating and maintaining your Cara + 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 and property. Consult your local Municipal office and your insurance representative to determine what regulations are in force. Save these instructions for future reference.
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.
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 specialist 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.
The complete installation must be done in accor­dance with current Standards and Local Codes. It should be noted that the requirements and these publications may be superseded during the life of this manual.
Please refer to the current standards, BS EN 15287­1:2007 Design, Installation and Commissioning of chimneys. BS EN 14336:2004: Heating Systems in Buildings. Installation & Commissioning of Water Based Heating Systems. BS EN 12828: 2003; Heating Systems in Buildings. Design of Water Based Heating Systems. BS EN 12831: 2003; Heating Systems in Buildings. method for calculation of the design heat load.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The installation of any electrical services during the installation of this stove must be carried out by a registered competent electrician and in accordance with the requirements of the latest issue of BS 7671.
FLUES
Flues should be vertical wherever possible and where a bend is necessary, it should not make an angle of more than 45
o
with the vertical. Horizontal flue runs should be avoided in order to minimise flue resistance and to make sweeping easier it is recom­mended to use 2 x 45
o
bends rather than a 90
o
bend.
CHIMNEY
Do not connect to a chimney serving another appliance.
The stove is a radiant room heater and must be con­nected to a chimney of the proper size and type. The chimney must have a cross-sectional area of at least 30 square inches 19350sq. mm or a diameter of at least 6” (150mm). It is best to connect to a chimney of the same size, as connection to a larger size may result in a somewhat less draught.
A flue that has proved to be unsatisfactory, particu­larly with regard to down draught should not be used for venting this appliance until it has been examined and any faults corrected. An existing masonry chim­ney should be inspected and if necessary repaired by a competent mason or relined using an approved lining system.
The stove must be connected to a chimney with a minimum continuous draught of 0.06” w.g. Poor draught conditions will result in poor performance.
All register plates, restrictor plates, damper etc., which could obstruct the flue at a future date should be removed before connecting this appliance.
If connecting to an existing chimney with a flue diameter of more that 8” it is recommend to line the flue using a suitable stainless steel flue liner.
Where a masonry chimney is not available a propri­etary type of 6”/150mm - twin wall, fully insulated pipe may be used.
A chimney / flue termination must be located to min­imise wind effects, a basic guide is that the distance from the termination to the roof should be at be at least 2300mm when measured horizontally and at least 1000mm when measured vertically, (see Fig.2). In circumstances where there are adjoining buildings/ structures/ roof openings there are addi­tional requirements, please refer to building regula­tions part J.

Step 4
Remove all internal parts as per pre-assembly instructions prior to lifting it.
Step 5
Inset the stove to its final position.
USING CLOSURE PLATE - (Skip to Step 10)
Step 6
Drop the 150mm twin wall flexi flue liner down through the chimney and into the stove.
Step 7
Lay the sealing gasket on to the flue spigot, connect the flue spigot to the flexi pipe using a 5” extension pipe and a 5” - 6” adaptor. It is not recommended to fit a flexi flue liner within 600mm of the stove flue spigot.
Step 8
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 the spigot in place while the fixings are being attached.
Step 9
Complete the installation of the flexi liner at the top of the chimney in accordance with the manufactur­ers instructions.
USING FLEXIBLE LINER - (Skip to Step 16)
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
Decide which boiler tappings are to be used to con­nect the boiler. Remove the temporary plugs from the other two connections and replace with perma­nent boiler plugs.

15 degree Adaptor
Step 10
Measure the distance to the flue outlet of the stove and compare to the chimney, decide on best orien­tation of the offset adaptor.
Step 11
Push the offset adaptor into position and make a seal using approved fire cement between the adap­tor and the clay liner. The seal should be tapered to allow any condensation that may occur in the chimney flow back into the flue. See Fig.7.
