The piping must not be obstructed in any way. The expansion vessel must be at least 7% of volume of the total heating system. The expansion vessel should be fitted on the suction side of the pump.
  • Page 15 Plumbing Advice     Alarms It is not a requirement to fit an alarm on the system, but it is recommended. The alarm will act as a warning to the customer if the SCWS should operate. The alarm should be fitted to the SCWS discharge pipe and should register an increase in temperature when the SCWS is in operation.

  • Page 32: Lighting The Stove

    Lighting the Stove Curing On initial firing you will notice a very pungent odour, this is caused through the curing of the paint, we recommend starting with short burning sessions (with smaller quantities of fuel) and build up gradually to allow the components of the stove to settle. Opening doors and windows will allow the paint curing odour to dissipate and to allow ventilation into the room.
  • Page 33: Burning Wood

    Burning Wood Once you have kindled your stove (see previous page) and your chimney (flue) is sufficiently heated and a large base of burning embers is present, you are ready to start adding you logs. Stage 4 Place 1-3 small logs onto the bed of hot embers using the gloves provided, close the door but leave both air intakes in the fully open/maximum position.
  • Page 34: Warning Notes

    Warning Notes Over-Firing It is extremely important that you do NOT leave the air control in the fully open position for extended periods or run the appliance with the door open. Leaving the air control fully open (or running with the doors open) will lead to “over-firing”.
