Wa r r a n t y

Your Yeoman retailer provides you with a Two Year Warranty

for your new stove. However, this specifically excludes

naturally wearing parts or ‘consumables’ such glass, firebricks

and rope seal and the use of non-authorized fuel such as

petro-cokes. Furthermore, for the warranty to be valid,

your stove must have been installed in accordance with the

manufacturer’s instructions and the second year’s warranty is

dependent on the appliance being serviced 12 months after installation by a HETAS or other similarly qualified engineer.

They also provide a Five Year Casting Warranty for the carcass

of all cast iron stoves and the cast iron door of steel stoves.

Again, this excludes naturally wearing cast parts such as grate,

dampers, log retainers and baffles.

HEATING SYSTEM CONTROLS

CONTROLS, GENERAL

1.18 The controls fitted to the system will provide two functions:

—To control the comfort level in the house.

—To maintain safety in the event of misuse or

mechanical failure.

COMFORT CONTROLS

1.19 A programmable timer switches the pump on when heat

is required and off when it is not.

The timer, when combined with a room thermostat and

/ or thermostatic radiator valves, enhances the comfort levels in the house.

Some room thermostats combine the function with

the timer and can be programmed to reduce the room temperature rather than turning the system off. This is effective in not allowing rooms to become too cold and speeding up recovery time.

1.20 The hot water cylinder can also be fitted with a thermostatic valve which turns off the flow when the cylinder has reached the desired temperature, but the heat leak radiator will have to be bigger to cope with the extra load when the tank is isolated.

PR8932 PR8934

Primary Control

DOOR OPERATION

1.14 Use a protected gloved hand to operate.

DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR WITH BARE HANDS

To Open and Close

Rotate handle and pull door to open

SAFETY CONTROLS

1.21 A high limit thermostat is fitted to the gravity flow pipe

set at 80˚C. This thermostat should be connected to the

pump so that the pump is turned on if the temperature

exceeds 80˚C. This will prevent accidental boiling in the

gravity circuit.

1.22 It is also recommended to fit a low limit thermostat on

the central heating return set at 45˚C. This thermostat will

turn the pump off if the return temperature falls below 45C. This will prevent corrosion and condensation within the stove.

NOTE – Further information on solid fuel central heating

systems can be found in the HETAS engineers training manual.

PR8935 PR8936

USER INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Properly installed, operated and maintained this appliance will not emit fumes into the room.

Occasional fumes from de-ashing and refuelling may occur.

Persistent fume emission is potentially dangerous and

must not be tolerated.

If fume emission does persist:

—Open doors and windows to ventilate the room.

—Allow fire to burn out and safely dispose of fuel from the

appliance.

—Check for chimney blockage and clean if required.

—Do not attempt to relight until the cause of the emission

has been identified and corrected. If necessary seek expert advice.

All open flued appliances can be affected by temporary

atmospheric conditions which may allow fumes to enter the house. Because of this it is recommended that an electronic carbon monoxide detector conforming to BSEN50291 be fitted and maintained.

2.6 Precautions must be taken to ensure that this build up of condensate does not overflow from the appliance onto any surrounding fabric of the room e.g. carpets.

NOTE - THIS CONDENSATION IS NORMAL DURING

FILLING AND DOES NOT INDICATE A FAULTY OR LEAKING STOVE.

NORMAL RUNNING

2.7 During normal running this condensation should be minimal if the system is fitted with the low limit thermostat as detailed in 1.22 (above). This low limit thermostat prevents the system pump from running until the stove has reached temperature.

SEASONAL USE

2.8 If this appliance is unused for lengthy periods of time it should be periodically checked to ensure that condensation is not building up within the stove.

NOTE – THIS CONDENSATION IS NORMAL AND DOES

NOT INDICATE A FAULTY OR LEAKING STOVE.

If the stove is going to be unused for very long periods of

time it is recommended to drain the system.

3. RECOMMENDED FUELS

2. USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

2.1 To allow the appliance to settle and fixing glues and paint to fully cure:

—Operate the appliance at a low temperature for first

few days.

2.2 Do not touch the paint during the first period of use.

2.3 During this time the appliance may give off some unpleasant odours:

—Keep the room well ventilated to avoid a build-up of

fumes.

CONDENSATION

CAUTION WHEN FILLING

2.4 When filling the boiler with water for the first time, the cold water entering the water jacket can cause condensation to form on the surfaces of the appliance (inside and outside).

2.5 In certain conditions this condensation could result in a considerable amount of water, in some cases enough to fill the bottom of the appliance. This could be even worse if the house has recently been re-decorated, wet plastered or any other work has been undertaken which could result in high humidity.

3.1 Wood Logs

Burn only seasoned timber with a moisture content of less

than 20%. To ensure this allow cut wood to dry for 12 to 18 months.

Appliance Wood Length

CL8 400mm

Poor quality timber:

—Causes low combustion efficiency. —Produces harmful condensation. —Reduces effectiveness of the airwash and life of the

USER INSTRUCTIONS

5. RUNNING THE APPLIANCE

BURNING WOOD:

5.1 This appliance gives out its heat in two ways:

—Directly into the room in which it is fitted through

convection and radiation.

—Hot water to heat radiators and domestic hot water.

The output to hot water varies depending on how quickly the fuel is being burnt. Fore more detail see the graph on page 13.

5.2 Only for use with recommended fuels, see Section 3 for full details.

—Close the Primary Air control and use the Airwash to

control the burn rate when the appliance is at optimum operating temperature (see Diagrams 7 & 8).

—Rake the embers evenly over the firebed and open the

Airwash control fully for a few minutes before re-fuelling.

Do not refuel when a large amount of flames are

present in the firebox as this could cause smoke or flames to spill into the room.

Close the doors immediately after refuelling.

5.3 Burn new logs at a high temperature for a few minutes before adjusting the Airwash control. Refuel little and often for clean, efficient burning.

Do not load above the log guard or base of baffle.

5.4 Do not burn large amounts of fuel with the Airwash control closed for long periods of time. This reduces the glass cleaning effect of the Airwash and causes tars and creosotes to build-up in the appliance and flue system.

5.5 When in use, running the appliance at a high temperature for a short period reduces tars and creosotes.

5.6 Experience establishes settings to suit personal preference.

Do not burn construction timber, painted, impregnated / treated wood, manufactured board

products or pallet wood.

5.6 BURNING SOLID FUEL

To burn smokeless fuels a cast iron multi-fuel grate must

be fitted.

Only for use with recommended fuels (see User

Instructions, Section 3).

5.7 Set air controls as shown in Diagram 9.

PR8012

PR8933

USER INSTRUCTIONS

5.8 De-ash the firebed before re-fuelling (see User Instructions, Section 7).

Open the Primary Air Control fully to establish a glowing

bed before adding new fuel.

Burn new fuel at a high temperature (see Diagram 7) for a

few minutes before adjusting the Primary Air Control to the desired setting.

Refuel little and often for clean, efficient burning.

5.9 Experience establishes settings to suit personal preference.

5.10 Do not burn large amounts of fuel with the Primary Air Control on a low combustion setting for long periods of time. This reduces the glass cleaning effect of the Airwash and causes tars and creosotes to build-up in the appliance and flue system.

5.11 When in use, burning the appliance at a high temperature for a short period reduces tars and creosotes.

5.12 Only anthracite or smokeless fuels suitable for use in closed appliances must be burned in this appliance.

5.13 Do not burn bituminous coal, ‘petro-coke’ or other

petroleum based fuels as this invalidates the product guarantee.

5.14 Do not load fuel above the log guard and the base of the baffle at the back of the firebox (see Diagram 5).

REFUELLING

5.15 De-ash the fire bed before refuelling, see Ash Removal

—Open the Primary air control fully to establish a

glowing bed before adding new fuel.

—Do not refuel when a large amount of flame is

present in the firebox as this could cause smoke or flames to spill into the room.

—Close the doors immediately after refuelling.

—Burn new fuel at a high temperature for a few minutes

before adjusting the Primary air control to the desired setting.

—Refuel little and often for clean, efficient burning.

5.16 Do not re-fuel the stove above the level of the log guard or the base of the baffle.

THERMOSTAT OPERATION

6. BURNING TIPS

6.1 Fuel Quality (Wood) Use wood with a moisture content of less than 20%.

Seasoned logs have the bark beginning to lift and peel away and cracks radiating from the centre. They feel lighter than fresh cut wood of a similar size and sound hollow when struck against each other. Logs should not feel damp or have moss and fungal growths.

Symptoms related to wet wood:

—Difficulty starting and keeping a fire burning well. —Smoke and small flames. —Dirty glass. —Rapid creosote build-up in the chimney. —Low heat output. —Short burn times, excessive fuel consumption and blue/grey smoke from the chimney.

Burn at a high temperature for a short period each day

to avoid large build-ups of tars and creosote within the appliance and the flue system.

Use Stovax Protector chimney cleaner to reduce this

problem.

6.2 Fuel Quality (Solid Fuel) Use recommended solid fuels approved for use with closed

appliances.

Symptoms related to unsuitable fuels include:

—Difficulty starting and keeping a fire burning well. —Smoke and small flames. —Dirty glass and/or fire bricks. —Short life span for Grate and Baffle. —Permanent staining of glass.

6.3 Air inlets puffing smoke Combustion gases can build up in the firebox and ignite

as small explosions, causing smoke to puff out of the air inlets and other openings. This occurs if the air controls are shut soon after adding new fuel to a very hot fire. Stop by opening the air controls to increase combustion air and burning rate.

6.4 Flue Draught The chimney has two main functions:

1) To safely remove the smoke, gases and fumes from the house.

2) To provide a sufficient amount of draught (suction) in the appliance ensuring the fire keeps burning.

5.17 This appliance can be fitted with a thermostat kit to control the temperature of the boiler. See the instructions included in the kit for operation details.

In the U.K. * Registered on the Competent Persons Scheme (GB only)

see page 35 / INFO (Republic of Ireland).

** This should be done by a HETAS registered chimney

sweep, see page 35, who will issue you with a certificate.

USER INSTRUCTIONS

Draught is caused by the rising hot air in the chimney when

the appliance is lit.

Symptoms of poor performance related to flue draught

include:

—Excessive fuel consumption (high flue draught). —Poor burning control, overheating (high flue draught). —Wind noise from air controls (high flue draught). —Difficulty getting a fire going and keeping it burning well

(low flue draught).

—Low heat output (low flue draught). —Smoke entering room when doors opened (low flue

draught).

The construction, position, size and height of the chimney

all affect the performance of the flue draught.

Other factors effecting the flue draught include:

—Trees or other buildings nearby causing turbulence. —Outside temperature. —Outside weather conditions. —Incorrect additional ventilation to building. —Blocked flue / chimney.

For advice on the correction of persistent flue problems

consult a qualified solid fuel heating engineer before continuing to use the appliance.

9.1 It is possible to get the appliance to burn for extended periods of time. In order to do this:

—De-ash prior to final refuelling.

—Tilt diagonally and insert through the front of the stove

(see Diagram 13).

PR8863

—Place tray flat on the fixings on the firebed (see Diagram 14).

—Set air controls to low combustion settings.

This will gradually blacken the glass but it will clear when

operated at a high temperature for a short period.

—Use smokeless fuel or small, thick logs.

10. OVER-FIRING

10.1 Do not over-fill with fuel or run at high temperatures for long periods or over-firing can occur. If the flue pipe, flue collar or top plate glow red the appliance is over-firing. Close the air controls to reduce the temperature.

10.2 Over-firing can cause permanent damage to the

appliance.

PR8864

USER INSTRUCTIONS

11. CHIMNEY FIRE

11.1 If a chimney fire occurs:

—Shut all air controls immediately.

—Evacuate the building.

—Call the fire brigade.

—Do not re-enter the building until it is confirmed safe.

11.2 Do not use the appliance after a chimney fire until: a) It has been inspected by a registered installer*,

confirming the appliance is safe to use.

b) The chimney system has been inspected and swept by a

chimney sweep, confirming the system is structurally sound and free from obstruction**.

c) It is repaired as required before re-use. Use only

genuine Yeoman replacement parts to keep your appliance

in safe, efficient working order.

12. GENERAL CLEANING

12.1 Clean and inspect the appliance regularly, especially in periods of heavy use. Regular cleaning and maintenance will help give many years of safe use.

Allow appliance to cool thoroughly to avoid risk of burns.

Clean regularly, according to level of use.

Remove the ash completely (see User Instructions, Section 7).

Check the internal components for damage. Do not use

the appliance if any parts are broken or damaged. Replace damaged parts with genuine Yeoman replacement parts to keep the appliance in safe, efficient working order.

Check for obvious build up of soot, ash or debris above the

flue baffle(s) (these can be found in the upper part of the firebox). Use a torch if necessary.

If there are any signs of a build up of debris above the flue

baffle(s) either:

Check that the door shuts properly and creates an effective

seal. Leaking door seals prevent the appliance working properly.

Do not use aerosol sprays near an operating appliance.

13. CLEANING GLASS

Keep the glass clean with correct use of the Airwash system

and good quality fuel.

13.1 Sometimes additional cleaning may be required.

This can be done as follows:

—Allow appliance to cool fully. Do not clean hot glass.

—Use a soft cloth and Stovax Glass Cleaner.

13.2 Before re-lighting the appliance dry the glass fully.

13.3 Do not use abrasive cleaner or cleaning pads.

14. CHIMNEY SWEEPING

14.1 To maintain safe and efficient use of the appliance, the chimney/flue must be inspected and swept at least once a year by a qualified chimney sweep**.

If the appliance is used continuously throughout the year,

or it is used to burn wood or smokeless fuel, more frequent sweeping is recommended.

The best time to have the chimney swept is at the start of

the heating season.

The above applies even if burning smokeless fuels.

14.2 The chimney, any connecting flue pipe and the appliance flue ways, if incorporated, must be regularly cleaned.

14.3 Ensure adequate access for cleaning where it is not possible to sweep through the chimney.

14.4 If the chimney is believed to have previously served an open fire it must be swept a second time within a month of regular use after installation.

—Arrange for the chimney to be swept (see User

Instructions, Section 14).

—Remove the baffle and clear the debris (see Installation

Instructions, Section 3).

To refresh painted finishes use Stovax Riva Midnight black

metallic paint.

Wipe dry with a soft clean cloth be fore relighting. Always

dry appliance to avoid rust.

Do not use abrasive cleaner or cleaning pads.

In the U.K. * Registered on the Competent Persons Scheme (GB only)

see page 35 / INFO (Republic of Ireland).

** This should be done by a HETAS registered chimney

sweep, see page 35, who will issue you with a certificate.

USER INSTRUCTIONS

15. CARE OF STOVE

Stovax has a range of cleaning and maintenance products

and accessories to keep your appliance in good working order. Your Yeoman retailer can advise you on suitable items for your stove and provide genuine spare parts such as replacement glass and door sealing rope. View the extensive range at www.stovax.com by clicking on Accessories. In addition, an annual service by a competent engineer is recommended to keep your stove in the best possible condition.

16. SEASONAL USE

16.1 Clean and service the appliance if it is not used during the warmer periods of the year, as detailed in the Maintenance and Servicing section.

16.2 Set the air controls to 50% to keep the appliance ventilated and stop the build-up of any moisture inside.

16.3 Before re-lighting the appliance:

—Remove the baffle.

—Clear any debris that may have accumulated.

—Check the flue is clear of any blockages.

130°C - 250°C (270°F - 480°F). Failing to close down the Primary Air Control once the appliance has heated up to this range may cause the appliance to exceed the ideal temperature range and to over-fire. Over-firing can cause permanent damage to the appliance and invalidates your warranty. Burn with the Airwash Control fully open for approximately 20 minutes to cure this.

The problem may be caused by damping down the

appliance during periods of extended burning.

4. Problems with the flue, in particular insufficient air pull. If the flue is not working efficiently the glass can blacken. A flue which has too much downdraft may be too short, needs lining, or has too many bends. This can also cause blackening of the stove glass. Contact the installer or a flue specialist for advice.

17.2 Riddling Mechanism Jamming

This occurs when ash builds up under the riddling grate

preventing movement. To rectify:

—Lift out the riddling mechanism (see Installation

Instructions, Section 5) and remove all ash.

—Replace riddling mechanism when cleaning is complete.

—De-ash and clean the inside of the appliance regularly

to avoid build up of ash and subsequent jamming of mechanism.

17.3 Glass cracking

Do not over tighten the screws on the glass clips when

replacing the glass. This causes stress and the intense temperature changes can cause the glass to crack. For replacement glass contact your local Yeoman retailer.

17.4 Appliance is producing tar

This can be identified by:

—A very strong pungent smell shortly after the appliance is

lit and heats up.

17. TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS

17.1 Stove glass blackening This has four possible causes:

1. Incorrect use of Airwash See User Instructions, Sections 1, 4 and 5 for the correct use

of the air controls.

2. Burning unseasoned wood See User Instructions, Section 3 to identify when wood is

ready for burning.

3. Stove operated at too low a temperature A stove pipe thermometer can identify this problem (Stovax

part no 3046). The ideal working temperature range is

—Glass blackening.

—Thick, brown, sticky tar oozing from the pipe joints.

This is caused by burning damp wood and running the

appliance at too low a temperature.

Use well seasoned wood and operate the appliance within

the ideal temperature range.

Tar is a major cause of chimney fires. If the appliance

experiences problems with tar build up consult a chimney sweep before continued use of the appliance.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEM

1. General

This appliance gives out heat in two ways:

—Directly into the room in which it is fitted through

convection and radiation.

—Hot water to heat radiators and domestic hot water.

The installation must comply with building regulations and

use best practice advice.

2. Boiler Sizing

2.1 It is very important to determine the correct size of appliance for the house:

—Too big a boiler will run too hot and will not be efficient.

—Too small a boiler will not maintain the desired

temperature.

2.2 Size the boiler correctly by calculating the following heat loads:

RADIATORS - the amount of heat required to run the

radiators efficiently. The correct size of radiator depends on the required temperature for the room, the room heat losses and the radiator manufacturer’s guides.

3. Hot Water Cylinder

3.1 The domestic hot water cylinder must be an indirect vented double feed type to meet national standards** and should have a minimum capacity of 117 litres. Houses with more than one bathroom or a separate shower will need a bigger tank.

Fully insulate the tank.

The water draw off pipes to the taps should be in a dead

leg connection from the vent pipe.

4. Open Vent And Cold Feed System

4.1 This system must be fitted with a minimum of 22mm diameter open vent discharging into a heat resisting feed and expansion tank. There must be at least 25mm air gap between the end of the pipe and the water level. The cistern tank should have an overflow with a minimum diameter of 22mm

The cold feed must be a minimum 22mm and enter the

system as the last connection on the common boiler return.

The open vent and cold feed must not be fitted with any

valves, manual or automatic.

Do not use plastic pipe in any part of the flow and

return.

5. Heat Leak Radiator

HOT WATER - the amount of heat required to provide the

desired amount of domestic hot water.

LOSSES – the amount of heat lost in pipe work - typically

10% of the combined radiators and hot water loads.

There are national guidelines for calculating these figures*.

2.3 Careful consideration must be given to where the appliance is fitted. It must be sized correctly for the heat load required and the size of the room. These requirements can be found in the Technical Specifications.

2.4 All Stovax appliances are thermostatically controlled. The burning rate is adjusted to the demands of the connected heat load. If the radiators do not require heat then the thermostat will act to shut down the appliance and the direct heat output to the room where it is fitted will reduce (see heat output graph on page 15 to show the ratio between direct heat output and water heat output). To prevent the room becoming too cold, fit a thermostatically controlled radiator as well as the appliance.

5.1 A heat leak radiator must be fitted in the gravity circuit to dissipate any excess heat produced from the boiler when connected demand is low. The domestic hot water cylinder may not be able to disperse heat at all times due to modern insulation. This radiator is commonly fitted in the bathroom and should be rated at 2kW (6500 btu) or 10% of the total boiler output.

This radiator ensures that the appliance is not shut down

completely for long periods resulting in the fire going out.

Fit the heat leak radiator in the gravity circuit using 22mm

pipe reducing to 15mm for no more than 300mm before the radiator.

Fit the radiator with two ‘lock-shield’ valves that are set

in the fully open position and cannot be shut down. Use diagonal connections. Do not fit thermostatic valves or manually adjustable valves to the heat leak radiator.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

6. Pump

6.1 Where a pump is fitted into the circuit it should be adjustable so that the flow can match the system requirements. Fit isolation valves to enable removal for servicing. The pump must have at least 1.5 meters of static head.

7. Electrical Supply

7.1 Electrical connections must meet the requirements of national Building Regulations* and standards**, along with any European, local regulations and working practices that may apply. Should conflict occur between these instructions and these regulations then the regulations must be followed.

The connection to the mains supply should allow

complete electrical isolation and only serve the heating circuit pump.

All water connections should be completed by a competent

person to meet the requirements of local water authority by-laws.

CONVENTIONAL PIPE WORK SYSTEMS

All pipe work must be able to operate at above 100

degrees Celsius. Any pipe work installed in an exposed position e.g. loft space must have provision to prevent freezing.

Ensure the pipe work system has sufficient drain

points to enable the complete removal of water for the purposes of servicing.

9. Pump Assisted Central Heating

9.1 The most common arrangement is to have a pumped central heating circuit combined with a gravity hot water circuit. This arrangement requires careful balancing of the two in order to avoid the gravity circuit being starved when the pump is running.

To overcome this problem it is common practice to fit

an injector tee where the pumped central heating return re-joins the gravity return from the hot water cylinder. This injector tee induces a much stronger gravity flow when the pump runs.

Only use proprietary injector tees, homemade ones are

difficult to get right.

9.2 When installing a system that has pumped central heating and gravity hot water it is recommended to use all 4 boiler tappings. Each flow and return should be diagonally opposite each other.

10. Fully Pumped System

10.1 In many installations (especially new build) a fully pumped system is the best choice to give increased control.

WARNING - To prevent the risk of boiling it is essential

to arrange the pipe work and position the hot water cylinder and heat leak radiator so that gravity circulation can take place when the pump is not running. Any motorised valves fitted in this circuit must return to the fully open position when the power is interrupted.

11. Sealed (Pressurised) System

8. Gravity Pipe Circuit

8.1 To prevent the risk of boiling it is essential to arrange the pipe work and position the hot water cylinder and heat leak radiator so that gravity circulation can take place when the pump is not running. Position the cylinder and the radiator vertically above the boiler with sufficient height to encourage gravity flow.

8.2 Horizontal pipe work in a gravity system must have an incline of at least 5mm in every 1000mm and a minimum diameter of 28mm. Vertical pipe must have a minimum diameter of 22mm.

8.3 Any motorised valves fitted in this circuit must return to the fully open position when the power is interrupted.

11.1 Do not fit this appliance to sealed or pressurised systems or an unvented hot water cylinder.

HEATING SYSTEM CONTROLS

CONTROLS GENERAL

1.1 The controls fitted to the system will provide two functions:

— To control the comfort level in the house. — To maintain safety in the event of misuse or mechanical

failure.

COMFORT CONTROLS

1.2 This primarily consists of a time clock wired into the pump. The pump is switched on when heat is required and when it is not, the pump is switched off.

The time clock, when combined with a room thermostat

and or thermostatic radiator valves, enhances the comfort levels in the house.

NOTE - THIS CONDENSATION IS NORMAL DURING

FILLING AND DOES NOT INDICATE A FAULTY OR LEAKING STOVE.

NORMAL RUNNING

1.9 During normal running this condensation should be minimal if the system is fitted with the low limit thermostat as detailed in 1.22 (above). This low limit thermostat prevents the system pump from running until the stove has reached temperature.

SEASONAL USE

1.10 If this appliance is unused for lengthy periods of time it should be periodically checked to ensure that condensation is not building up within the stove.

NOTE – THIS CONDENSATION IS NORMAL AND DOES

NOT INDICATE A FAULTY OR LEAKING STOVE.

Some room thermostats combine the function with the

time clock and can be programmed to reduce the room temperature rather than turning the system off. This is effective in not allowing the rooms to become too cold and speeding up recovery time.

1.3 The hot water cylinder can also be fitted with a thermostatic valve which turns off the flow when the cylinder has reached the desired temperature but the heat leak radiator will have to be bigger to cope with the extra load when the tank is isolated.

SAFETY CONTROLS

1.4 This primarily consists of a high limit thermostat fitted to

the gravity flow pipe set at 80˚C, this thermostat should be

connected to the pump so that the pump is turned on if

the temperature exceeds 80˚C. This will prevent accidental

boiling in the gravity circuit.

1.5 It is also recommended to fit a low limit thermostat on the

central heating return set at 45˚C, this thermostat will turn the pump off if the return temperature falls below 45˚C.

This will prevent corrosion and condensation within the stove.

CONDENSATION

If the stove is going to be unused for very long periods of

time it is recommended to drain the system.

NOTE – Further information on solid fuel central heating

systems can be found in the HETAS engineers training manual.

LINK UP SYSTEMS

For information on how to link solid fuel boilers to other

heating appliances see Information For Dual System Link Up Methods (PM286). This can be obtained through Stovax.

Call (01392) 474011, email info@stovax.com or visit www.stovax.com for details.

Always seek the advice of a competent person* before

linking another heating system to a solid fuel boiler.

1.6 When filling the boiler with water for the first time, the cold water entering the water jacket can cause condensation to form on the surfaces of the appliance (inside and outside).

1.7 In certain conditions this condensation could result in a considerable amount of water, in some cases enough to fill the bottom of the appliance. This could be even worse if the house has recently been re-decorated, wet plastered or any other work has been undertaken which could result in high humidity.

1.8 Precautions must be taken to ensure that this build up of condensate does not overflow from the appliance onto any surrounding fabric of the room e.g. carpets.

In the U.K. * Registered on the Competent Persons Scheme (GB only)

see page 35 / INFO (Republic of Ireland).

COMMISSIONING

1.1 To commission:

— Replace the log retainer. — Check the door alignment and catch operation, adjust if

required (see Maintenance & Servicing, Section 7, Adjusting Door Hinges).

— Check the soundness of door seals, castings and joints. — Check the operation of the air controls. — Ensure the system has been filled with water and

includes a suitable inhibitor.

1.2 Now carry out a final smoke draw test:

— First warming the flue with a blowlamp, or similar, for

about 10 minutes.

— Place a smoke pellet on the centre of the grate, with the

air controls open.

— Close the door. Smoke should now be drawn up the flue

and be seen to exit from the flue terminal.

— Complete test with all doors and windows closed in the

room where the appliance is fitted.

— If there are any extractor fans in adjacent rooms, the test

must be repeated with the fans running on maximum and interconnecting doors open.

— Check the effect of ceiling fans during the test.

If the test fails, re-check the suitability of the flue system

and ventilation. An inadequate air supply to the room is potentially dangerous.

— Light the appliance and slowly increase the temperature

to operating levels.

— Ensure no combustion products enter the room. — Open the main fire door when the appliance reaches

operating condition and carry out a spillage test with a smoke match or pellet around the door opening.

— Run the system up to temperature.

BALANCING THE SYSTEM

It is essential to balance the central heating system in order

to achieve an even heating performance across all of the radiators in the house. Balanced means each radiator having

a 10˚C difference in temperature between the flow and the return, ideally 80˚C flow and 70˚C return.

Have the system running and adjust the appliance

thermostat so that the flow temperature measured near

the appliance is approximately 80˚C. Ensure that all valves

including lock-shield valves are in the fully open position and the pump is at its estimated correct speed. If there are thermostatic radiator valves, have these on maximum setting and ensure that they do not activate.

Ensure that the radiators have been bled of air.

Write down the return temperature of each radiator in turn

and its difference to the flow temperature at the appliance. Make sure that the flow temperature remains constant.

The radiator with the greatest difference (the index radiator)

and any other radiator within 1 degree should be left with the lock-shield fully open. The remainder of the lock-shield valves should be closed to about 1/3 open. Leave the system to stabilise, this could take some time.

When the system has stabilised, write down the new

difference between the flow and return temperatures and any which differ from the index radiator by more than 1 degree will need further adjustment, some valves will have been closed too much and others not enough, usually the adjustments need to be only a fraction of a turn at a time. Leave sufficient time for the system to stabilise after each adjustment.

When the radiator temperatures are starting to become

consistent, but before final adjustments, the index radiator needs to be considered, if the return temperature of this radiator is not near 70 degrees then the pump will need to be adjusted to either provide more (to increase the temperature) or less flow to decrease the temperature. Again, sufficient time will need to be left to allow the system to stabilise after adjusting the pump speed.

When the radiator flow and return temperatures are correct

the final adjustments can be made and the lock-shield covers replaced.

Knowing how far to shut down a valve to get the desired

change in flow and return temperature, and knowing how long to wait for the system to stabilise, takes a little time and practice.

1.3 If excessive spillage occurs:

— Allow the appliance to cool and re-check the flue system

and ventilation.

1.4 Finally:

— Explain the safe operation of the appliance and the

use of the controls to the user and the importance of only using suitable fuels.

All open flued appliances can be affected by temporary atmospheric conditions which

may allow fumes to enter the house. Because of this it is recommended that an electronic carbon monoxide detector conforming to BSEN50291 be fitted and maintained.

— Explain the cleaning and routine maintenance

requirements.

— Explain the requirement to use a suitable fireguard

when children, elderly or infirm persons are near the appliance.

—Record dealer/supplier and installer details in

Appliance Commissioning Checklist (page 3, Instructions for Use).

—Record serial number in Appliance Commissioning

Checklist (page 3, Instructions for Use). This number

is required when ordering spare parts and making warranty claims.

— Give the copy of the Instructions to the customer.
