Connection to Chimney Flue

A single wall metal fluepipe is suitable for connecting the stove to the chimney but is not

suitable for using for the complete chimney. It is important that the connection between

the stove spigot and the flue pipe is effectively sealed with cement and/ or glass fibre

rope to prevent harmful gases leaking into the room. The diameter of the flue spigot

(pre fibre roped) provided with the stove is 5” (125mm) and can be fitted to the rear or

the top of the stove and must be tightly fitted to the opening. Air must not be drawn in

at this point as it will affect the stoves performance. The stove may be fitted with a 6”

(150 mm) flue. This requires an adapter to be connected to the spigot. Your installer

can supply this. If you obtain this independently, make sure the adapter is compatible

with the flue pipe as not all manufacturers pipes are cross compatible. A 5” (125mm)

flue pipe is sufficient if you are only burning smokeless or low volatiles fuel but attention

must be paid to any build up of deposits in the flue and regular cleaning undertaken.

Fuels such a bituminous coal, untreated wood or compressed paper are not smokeless

or low volatiles fuel.

To get the best transfer of heat from the stove into the room there are two factors to

consider when installing into a fireplace recess.

Firstly, the flue pipe from the stove must pass through either a top or back ‘register

plate’. A top register plate is the term used for a flat plate which is installed inside

the chimney (usually out of sight) to prevent heat in the room being drawn up the

chimney to waste when using the top or rear flue outlet. A back register plate is the

term used for a flat plate which is installed over the opening of the fireplace recess

when using the rear flue outlet. This register plate must be made of a non-

combustible material such as steel, asbestolux, or masterboard. It is advisable to

seal this register plate to the walls of the chimney and also around the flue pipe.

Provision of a trap door in this closure plate, or a soot door in the flue for access to

clean the chimney from time to time, is recommended. When using the rear outlet it

is advisable to infill the chimney space underneath the outlet level to prevent debris

falling into the void and being inaccessible.

Secondly, the more forward the stove can be sited on the hearth, the more heat will

be radiated into the room. To achieve this, the back flue outlet is favoured but

remember the 600mm clearance distance from combustible materials and the

300mm distance to the front of the hearth.

Combustion Air Supply

In order for the stove to perform efficiently and safely there should be an adequate air

supply into the room in which the stove is installed to provide combustion air. This is

particularly necessary in modern houses where drafts have been almost eliminated by

double glazing etc.

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. It is necessary to install a wall vent to

provide the necessary combustion air and to prevent the depletion of oxygen in the

room.

Assembly

The stove has four legs that are attached by bolts. These should be fitted. The main

loading door and ash door are secured by hinge pins and will lift off. Inside there are

two side fire bricks and one rear fire brick. The rear firebrick is rectangular, the smooth

surface sits towards the fire. A separate top baffle plate is supported by the left, right

and rear firebricks. There is also the fire grate that sits on the base of the stove. If these

parts are removed re-install these parts in use the instructions below to refit the

firebricks:
