GRAINNE SOLID FUEL STOVE INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PRE INSTALLATION ASSEMBLY
1. Remove the flue spigot (Non boiler only) and put
in the orientation required. (See Flue
Connections)
2. Remove the stove from the wooden pallet.
3. Unscrew the two
1
/4” x 1/2” round head screws
from the base and fit the front ash tray using the
two screws.
4. Fit the primary air control knob to the flexible
drive (see Fig.1).
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 except in the case of a
back outlet from the appliance, when the length of
the horizontal section should not exceed 150mm. In
order to minimise flue resistance and to make
sweeping easier it is recommended to use 2 x 45
o
bends rather than a 90obend. The flue termination
point must be located to minimise any wind effects.
Wind effects of suction, pressure zones and turbulence can be created by the roof and adjacent
3
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 It should be noted that the requirements and these publications may be superseded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
In all cases the installation must comply with current Building Regulations, Local Authority Bylaws
and other specifications or regulations as they
affect the installation of the stove.
NOTE: Please note that it is a legal requirement
under England and 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.
GENERAL
When installing, operating and maintaining your
Grainne 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.
HEALTH AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Special care must be taken when installing the stove
such that the requirements of the Health and 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 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. There must not
be an extractor fan fitted in the same room as the
stove as this can cause the stove to emit fumes into
the room.
objects. Wind effects can also be created by natural land contours.
To minimise the wind effects, the flue termination
point should be located a minimum of 1000mm from
the roof measured vertically and 2300mm measured
horizontally. Where this termination point does not
suffice it may be necessary to extend the flue pipe
so that the termination point is above the apex.
FLUE PIPES
A flue pipe should only be used to connect an appliance to a chimney and should not pass through any
roof space.
Flue pipes may be of any of the following materials:
(a) Cast iron as described in BS 41: 1973 (1981),
or
(b) Mild steel with a wall thickness of at least 3mm,
or
(c) Stainless steel with a wall thickness of at least
1mm and as described in BS EN 10095:
1999 Specification for stainless and
heat resisting steel plate, sheet and strip, for
Grade 316 S11, 316 S13, 316 S16, 316 S31,
316 S33, or the equivalent Euronorm 88-71
designation, or
(d) Vitreous enamelled steel complying with BS
6999: 1989.
Flue pipes with spigot and socket joints should be fitted with the socket uppermost.

CHIMNEY
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
19350 square mm (30 square inches) or a diameter
of 150mm (6“). The chimney should be checked for
soundness and draught before installation. The
stove must be connected to a chimney with a minimum continuous draught of 12pa. Poor draught will
result in poor performance. Similarly an excessive
draught will result in the appliance over firing or
being difficult to control. An excessive draught may
require a flue draught stabiliser to be fitted. Do not
connect this appliance to a chimney serving another
appliance. The minimum required chimney height is
4.5 metres from the floor on which the appliance is
installed. An existing masonry chimney should be
inspected and if necessary, repaired by a competent
mason.
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.
DOWN DRAUGHTS
However well designed constructed and positioned,
the satisfactory performance of the flue can be
adversely affected by down draught caused by nearby hills, adjacent tall buildings or trees. These can
deflect wind to blow directly down the flue or create
a zone of low pressure over the terminal. A suitable
anti-down draught terminal or cowl will usually effectively combat direct down blow but no cowl is likely
to prevent down draught due to a low pressure zone.
VENTILATION & COMBUSTION AIR
REQUIREMENTS
This appliance is rated at less than 9kW. It is imperative that there is sufficient air supply to the stove in
order to support correct combustion. The air supply
to this appliance must comply with B.S. 8303: Part 1
and current Building Regulations. The minimum
effective air requirement for this appliance is 22cm2.
If a draught stabiliser is used then this increases to
49cm2.
When calculating combustion air requirement for
this appliance use the following equation: a total free
area of at least 550mm
2
per kW of rated output
above 5kW shall be provided. If there is another air
using appliance fitted in the same or adjacent room,
it will be necessary to calculate additional air supply.
All materials used in the manufacture of air vents
should be such that the vent is dimensionally stable
and corrosion resistant.

out, before lighting the stove. Once the stove is
under fire check all seals for soundness and that the
boiler and water system are operating correctly.
Ensure that the flue is functioning correctly and that
all products of combustion are vented safely to
atmosphere via the chimney terminal.
On completion of the installation and commissioning
ensure that the operating instructions for the stove
are left with the customer. Ensure to advise the customer on the correct use of the appliance and warn
them to use only the recommended fuels for the
stove.
Advise the user what to do should smoke or fumes
be emitted from the stove. The customer should be
warned to use a fireguard to BS 6539 in the presence of children, aged and/or infirm persons.
FLUE CONNECTION
Flue pipes with spigot and socket joints should be fitted with the socket upper most. Clearance to combustibles must be adhered to when fitting the flue
pipe. The connecting flue pipe must not be less than
the diameter of the stove outlet.
The flue gas mass flow non boiler model is 6.1g/s
(mineral wood logs) and 7.9g/s (mineral fuel), with
respective mean flue gas temperatures of 342
o
C and
294
o
C.
The flue gas mass flow boiler model is 6.1g/s (mineral wood logs) and 5.4g/s (mineral fuel), with

TOP FLUE EXIT
Boiler Model
For the top outlet configuration, connect bend (not
supplied) into flue outlet socket at the rear of the
stove and cement into place using approved fire
cement ensuring that no cement blocks the flue passageway. (See Fig. 3)
Non Boiler Model
This stove can be connected to either a top flue exit
(see Fig. 5 or a rear flue exit (see Fig.6) by simply
reversing the orientation of the flue spigot on the flue
spigot flange.

The effective free area of any vent should be ascertained before installation. The effect of any screen
should be allowed for when determining the effective free area of any vent.
Air vents direct to the outside of the building should
be located so that any air current produced will not
pass through normally occupied areas of the room.
An air vent outside the building should not be located less than the dimensions specified within the
Building Regulations from any part of any flue terminal. These air vents must also be fire proofed as per
Building Regulations.
Air vents traversing cavity walls should include a
continuous duct across the cavity. The duct should
be installed in such a manner as not to impair the
weather resistance of the cavity. Joints between air
vents and outside walls should be sealed to prevent
the ingress of moisture. Existing air vents should be
of the correct size and unobstructed for the appliance in use. If there is an air extraction fan or other
air using appliance fitted in the room or adjacent
rooms where this appliance is fitted, additional air
vents will be required to alleviate the possibility of
spillage of products of combustion from the appliance/flue while the fan is in operation.
Where such an installation exists, a test for spillage
should be made with the fan or fans and other appliances using air in operation at full rate, (i.e. extraction fans, tumble dryers) with all external doors and
windows closed. If spillage occurs following the
above operation, an additional air vent of sufficient
size to prevent this occurrence should be installed.
PERMANENT AIR VENT
The stove requires an adequate air supply in order
for it to operate safely and efficiently. The installer
may have fitted a permanent air supply vent into the
room in which the stove is installed to provide combustion and/or ventilation air. This air vent should
not under any circumstances be shut off or sealed.
Extractor Fan
There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the same
room as the stove as this can cause the stove to
emit smoke and fumes into the room.
COMMISSIONING AND HANDOVER
Ensure all parts are fitted in accordance with the
instructions.
On completion of the installation allow a suitable
period of time for any fire cement and mortar to dry
