0
circumference flue mouhted shield
THE FLUE KIT MUST BE INSTALLED ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS
CONSTRUCTING THE FLUE -
A free standing stove should have a flue kit made of stainless steel or vitre­
ous enamelled steel and it shall extend not less than 4.6m above the top of the floor protector and meets the require­
ments of AS2918/2001 Section 4. The length will depend on ceiling height and roof design but the top of the flue pipe
must be a minimum of 600mm above the ridge if the flue penetrates the roof within 3m of the ridge. Or to be of sufficient
height to be 3m from the roof line horizontally, but a minimum height of 1m.
If the draft is insufficient or periodic down drafting occurs and the stove smokes or only burns slowly, extending the flue or
fitting a specialist cowl will usually cure it.
In the roof cavity and above the roof it is essential that the flue has an outer casing with a reasonable air space (at least
25mm)
between inner and outer pipes. This double flue is important to prevent condensation on the upper cooler parts of
the flue as well as being a safety feature. Where the flue penetrates the ceiling and roof, it must comply with AS2918/
2001. If the stove is fitted into an existing chimney ensure that it is sealed at the base of the chimney with a register plate
and fit the flue pipe up through the plate and continue flue until it terminates outside' the chimney in accordance with
AS2918:2001 4.9.1
