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 unob-
structed for the appliance in use.
Where such a installation exists, a test for spillage
should be made with the fan or fans and other appli-
ances using air in operation at full rate, (i.e. extrac-
tion 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 a permanent and adequate air
supply in order for it to operate safely and efficiently.
In accordance with current Building Regulations the
installer will have fitted a permanent air supply vent
into the room in which the stove is installed to pro-
vide combustion 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.
LOCATION
There are several conditions to be considered in
selecting a location for your Tara Stove.

locations are usually best.

It is recommended that this appliance is sited next to
and on a non-combustible surface. A minimum all
round clearance of 100 mm will allow air circulation
and not impede the performance of the stove.
The connector may pass through walls or partitions
constructed of combustible materials provided the
connector is either listed for wall pass-through or is
routed through a device listed for a wall pass-
through and is installed in accordance with the con-
ditions of the listing. Any unexposed metal that is
used as part of a wall pass-through system is
exposed to flue gases shall be constructed of stain-
less steel or other equivalent material that will resist
corrosion, softening, or cracking from flue gas at
temperatures up to 982
FLOOR PROTECTION
