CHIMNEY
The Fionn Solid Fuel Stove must be connected to a
chimney of the correct size and type.
The chimney must have a CROSS-SECTIONAL
AREA of at least 30.sq. inches (176sq.cm) or a
diameter of at least 6" (15.2 cm). It is best to con-
nect to a chimney of the same size, as connection to
a larger size may result in somewhat less draught.
Never connect to a smaller size chimney. Do not
connect to a chimney serving another appliance.
Minimum chimney height 15ft. (5m) from floor on
which stove is installed. An existing masonry chim-
ney should be inspected, and if necessary repaired
by a competent mason. A steady draught condition
of 1.5mm (0.06 ins) WG is required for this stove.
CHIMNEY CONNECTORS
(Not Supplied)
The CHIMNEY CONNECTOR is a smokepipe used
to connect the Fionn Solid Fuel Stove to the chimney
described above.
The CHIMNEY CONNECTOR
must be made of CORROSION RESISTANT STEEL
24 gauge of heavier ('black' or 'blued' or equivalent
treated steel), ENAMELLED CAST IRON or ENAM-
ELLED STEEL of 6" (150mm) diameter.
SINGLE WALL STOVE PIPE MUST NOT PENE-
TRATE COMBUSTIBLE WALLS OR CEILINGS.
INSTALLATION CLEARANCES
Maintain at least the following clearances to all
combustible material:
From the front
From the back
only
From the sides
From the flue pipe
only
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.
CYLINDER
A 135 litre (30 Gallon) indirect cylinder with 25mm
(1" bore) flow is suitable and the length of pipes from
the cylinder to the stove should not exceed 7.8
metres (251/2) feet. There must be no gate valves
on this circuit and it must have an expansion pipe
exhausting to atmosphere. Cylinder and pipe work
should be lagged to minimise heat loss.

PLUMBING
(Boiler Model)
REGULATIONS
The Plumbing must be in accordance with all rele-
vant regulations and practices. It must include a
gravity circuit with expansion pipe, open to the
atmosphere. The central heating will normally be
pump-driven as with other types of boilers.
GRAVITY CIRCUIT
The gravity circuit consists of the domestic hot water
tank o f 135 litres indirect cylinder, fixed in an upright
position, recommended for hot water storage and it
should be connected to the boiler by 25mm (1")
diameter and return piping. The pipes should not
exceed flow 3.7m in length and anything in excess
of 2.0m must be fully lagged. The shorter the run of
pipe work the more effective the water heating. The
cylinder should be fully lagged.
Do not have any gate valves on this circuit.
