Boru Stoves Carraig Mor Installation & Operation Instructions page 6

IMPORTANT WARNING
 Only one appliance may be used per flue.
 There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the same room as the stove as this can cause
the stove to emit fumes and smoke into the room - For solid fuel appliances extract
ventilation should not be installed in the same room as an open-flued solid fuel
appliance. If mechanical extraction is un-avoidable then specialist advice to ensure safe
operation of the appliance must be sought.
 If the stove is not properly installed, a house fire may result, to reduce the risk of fire,
follow the installation instructions. Failure to follow instructions may result in property
damage, bodily injury, or even death.
 Use smoke detectors in the room where the stove is installed. Poor ventilation or excess
time loading the unit may cause these detectors to activate. Therefore place accordingly.
 By law a carbon monoxide alarm/detector must be installed as per manufacturer's
instructions. This alarm/detector should incorporate a visual and audible indicator to alert
users when the working life of the alarm is due to pass.
 Never use petroleum based products to start or 'freshen up' a fire in the stove. Use of
volatile fuels will cause an unsafe condition and cause the stove to over fire and will void
your extended warranty.
 A discoloured vent may be caused by carbon monoxide – this must be investigated
immediately.
 Inadequate ventilation can result in a negative pressure in the room resulting in an unsafe
condition including smoke going into the room.
 Only use fuel in accordance with our guidelines as this may lead to the stove over firing
causing damage to the wearable parts and/or stove – failure to adhere to our fuel
guidelines will void the extended warranty.
 In the event of a power failure – Do not continue to fuel and/or use the stove, close all the
dampers and DO NOT refuel. Turn the stove thermostat/dampers to zero.
