Page 5: Installation
INSTALLATION Once the installation is complete, the installer must advise the householder on the correct use of the stove and warn them to use only the recommended fuels listed in this document. The installer must also advise the householder on the actions to be taken should smoke or fumes be emitted from the stove. - Page 6 The chimney must be swept before connection to the stove and swept every twelve months thereafter. It is recommended that your chimney is swept every six months. An existing fireplace opening can be modified to accommodate the stove. The following pages identify some typical installation scenarios and provides the necessary specific installation information for your new stove.
- Page 7 Typical Installation for Inglenook Typical Installation Into In-filled Fireplaces – rear flue – Side View Masonry Fireplaces MINIMUM 600MM STRAIGHT BEFORE 45 DEG BEND. SPECIFIC INSTALLATION INFORMATION Legs Remove the legs from inside the stove. Carefully lay the stove on its back and using the screws provided fit the legs in place.
- Page 8 It is possible to fit the stove with less clearance around it – down to 50mm, but the non-combustible material around it must be at least 150mm thick. This is normally achieved when installing into a standard brick-built chimney breast with double thickness walls to the rear and sides of the builder’s opening.
- Page 9 Ventilation Into a Room For Combustion Air is an Essential Requirement. Any apertures provided for this purpose must not be restricted or blocked. Flues Without a Flue Draft Stabiliser 2.5kW-5kW Output When installing without a flue draft stabiliser into houses built before 2008, no additional permanent ventilation will be required.* Houses built after this date will require additional means of permanent ventilation direct to outside of at least 4400 * Note: Installers must verify adequate draw and install ventilation if required.

OPERATION Secondary Air Control Primary Air Control Riddling Mechanism Primary Air – Slide Control ALWAYS OPEN THE STOVE DOOR SLOWLY AND ALWAYS USE THE GLOVE Primary air is controlled via the sliding vent in the bottom of the door. This provides an air draught to the bed of the fire. - Page 11 environment. Slide to the right to open and to the left to close. Use this to control wood fires. It should be closed when burning anthracite for the best efficiency after the fire is established. Tertiary Air A tertiary air supply is bled into the stove from the rear panel. Its function is to ignite unburned gasses assisting with a clean burn.
- Page 12 Wood Burning Wood burns best on a bed of ash and it is therefore only necessary to remove surplus ash from the grate occasionally. Burn only kiln dried or well-seasoned wood, which should have been cut, split and stacked under cover for at least 36 months, with free air movement around the sides of the stack to enable it to dry out.
- Page 13 1.5kg of anthracite or equivalent per 45 minute period with the air controls in the same position as noted above. When loading fuel, ensure that the series of tertiary air holes on the rear chamber brick are not covered by the fuel. Of course best burning depends on the type of fuel being burnt, draft and stove settings, so please do experiment to find your own best settings.
- Page 14 Other Solid Fuel – “Authorised” fuels include anthracite large nuts, smokeless briquetted fuel, ie. Ancit, Phurnacite, Taybrite, Homefire Ovals suitable for closed appliances. Smokeless Briquetted Fuel – Only burn smokeless briquettes that are <2% sulphur content, these will be labelled up as “HETAS approved” or “DEFRA authorised for use in a smoke control zone”.
