4.7 Chimney and fl ue pipe
• The fi replace can be connected to chimneys and fl ue pipes
approved for solid fuel fi replaces with fl ue gas temperatures
as specifi ed in «2.0 Technical Data».
• The cross-section of the chimney must be at least that of the
fl ue pipe. Use «2.0 Technical Data» to calculate the correct
chimney cross-section. NB! The minimum recommended
chimney length is 3.5 m.
• For recommended chimney draught, see «2.0 Technical
Data». If the draught is too strong, action must be taken,
e.g. install and operate a fl ue pipe damper in order to reduce
the draught.
• The chimney and sweeping hatch must be inspected to
ensure they are tightly sealed to prevent leakage. If there is
a leak, less air will be pulled through the stove. Your local
fi re safety offi ce can carry out an inspection of the chimney.
• The chimney must be connected in accordance with the
installation instructions of the chimney supplier.
• Before a hole is made in the chimney, the fi replace should
be test-mounted in order to correctly mark the position of
the fi replace and the hole in the chimney. See Fig. 1 for
minimum dimensions.
• It is extremely important for connections to have a degree of
fl exibility. This is to prevent any movement in the installation
leading to the formation of cracks.
• It is important for the joints/flue pipes to be sealed
completely. Air leakage may cause malfunction.
• An adapter that makes it easier to install the fl ue pipe is
available as an optional extra. See Chapter 4.11.
• A fl ue gas bend that alters the direction of the fl ue gas by
more than 45° must be fi tted with a sweeping hatch. Note
that it is possible to sweep from the inside of the burn
chamber. See Chapter 7.2.
• NB: A correct and airtight connection is extremely important
for the function of the product.
• Weight must not be transferred from the fi replace structure
to the chimney. The fi replace structure must not hinder the
chimney's ability to move, and must not be anchored to
the chimney.
