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 an adequate air supply in order
for it to operate safely and efficiently. The installer
may have fitted a permanent air supply vent into the
room in which the stove is installed to provide com-
bustion and/or ventilation 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.
COMMISSIONING & HANDOVER
On completion of the installation allow a suitable
period of time for any fire cement and mortar to dry
out, when a small fire may be lit and checked to
ensure the smoke and fumes are taken from the
stove up the chimney and emitted safely to the
atmosphere. Do not run at full output for at least
24 hours.
On completion of the installation and commissioning
ensure that the operating instructions for the stove
are left with the customer. Ensure to advise the cus-
tomer on the correct use of the appliance with the
fuels likely to be used on the stove and warn them to
use only the recommended fuels for the stove.
Advise the user what to do should smoke or fumes
be emitted from the stove. The customer should be
warned to use a fire guard to BS 6539 in the pres-
ence of children, aged and/or infirm persons.

LOCATION

There are several conditions to be considered in
selecting a location for your stove.
A. Position in the area to be heated - central loca-
tions are usually best. If situated in an alcove,
site as far forward as possible, to provide more
heat to the room.
B. Allowances for proper clearances to com -
bustibles.

CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES

It is recommended that this appliance is sited next to
and on a non-combustible surface. A minimum all
round clearance of 100mm will allow air circulation
and not impede the performance of the stove. If it is
necessary to site the stove near to a combustible
surface a minimum clearance of 400mm to side
walls and 500mm to rear walls must be maintained.
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°C.
