Page 7: Hearths
Hearths: Heat Design stoves require a 125mm thick non-combustible constructional hearth beneath them to protect the building, this can include any solid non-combustible floor.

Page 8: Plumbing
4.0 Plumbing This appliance must be plumbed in accordance with all regulations and practices and plumbing must be carried out by a suitably qualified professional. The plumbing circuit must include a gravity circuit with an expansion pipe open to the atmosphere. Below are several diagrams representing different plumbing circuits. These are not working drawings and are for example only. - Page 9 The manufacturers cannot be held responsible for any losses due to incorrect specification or connection of the heating system. This Heat Design Boiler Stove must always be connected with the flow and return connections on opposite sides of the appliance (cross-flowed) to an indirect hot water system. Fernox or a similar corrosion inhibitor should be used to prevent corrosion or formation of limescale in the heating system.
- Page 10 The gravity circuit should connect to a domestic indirect hot water cylinder of minimum 135lt capacity, using 28mm flow and return pipes, rising continuously from the boiler to the cylinder. Any nominally horizontal runs of gravity pipework should slope upwards at not less than 1:30. The base of the hot water cylinder should be located at least 150mm above the top of the stove.

Secondary Air (Air Wash) This Heat Design boiler stove has a powerful “air wash” system. This secondary air supply to the stove is controlled via a sliding air control located on the top right of the stove. If you want clean glass, always leave this control open some way whilst burning unless the stove is being shut right down for a long period. -

the flames disappear and there are still lumps of solid wood left this indicates excessive moisture in the wood or insufficient air supply/flue draught. Note: To eliminate unwanted smoke emission, after loading new logs on to the fire, open the air wash control up fully for 1-2 minutes to boost the fire and get flames issuing from the top of the fuel as soon as possible. -
