If you order a plinth it will come with a plinth clamp. This consists of two flat bars. The
Woody plinth clamp also has 4 bolts. It is designed to clamp the stove and the plinth
together securely.
3.k Plinth Clamp
To fit: Place the bars inside the plinth, one on the left side and one on the
right, running front to back. Use the levelling bolts attached to the legs
of the stove to clamp the bar to the underside of the plinth on each side.
For Woody plinth, replace the levelling bolts with the longer ones,
supplied.
In order for the stove to operate correctly there needs to be sucient combustion air.
For stoves over 5kW a permanantly open air vent is required. For stoves of 5kW and
under it may sometimes be required. In new build houses air vents are required for
all sizes of stoves, this can apply to new extensions as well. This will depend on the
air leakage (air permeability) of your property. Your HETAS installer should be able
to guide you on your particular property. If a stove is to be fitted in a room with an
appliance such as an extractor fan, tumble drier or ceiling fan, it will aect the draw of
the flue system and could lead to fumes entering the room. Additional room ventilation
may be required, a flue draught test under worst case scenario must be carried out
by a qualified installer. In the case of an extractor fan, often the simplest solution is to
convert it to carbon filter extractor. Air vents should be positioned so that they are not
liable to blockage.
