such as a load distributing plate must be provided. The hearth should be able to accommodate the weight of the stove and its chimney if the chimney is not independantly supported. Stoves should stand wholly above hearths made of non-combustible board/sheet material or tilesat least 12mm thick, if the stove is not to stand in a recess and has been tested to an applicable standard to verify that it cannot cause the temperature of the upper surface of the hearth to exceed 100 degrees C.

FLUE HEIGHT The chimney height and the position of the chimney should conform to the Building Regulations document “J”. Flues should be high enough to clear the products of combustion. The height necessary for this will depend on the type of the appliance, the height of the building, the type of flue and the number of bends in it, and an assessment of local wind patterns.
Offsets in flues are only acceptable if the following rules are respected: a) The chimney system shall have no more than 4 bends in total; - 2 bends in the chimney and 2 bends in the flue pipe connection. b) The offset shall provide a change of direction no more than 45 degrees from the vertical.
accommodate burning the fuel that produces the highest heating output. There must always be a permanent means of providing air for combustion into the room in which the fire is installed. A permanent vent with a total free area of at least 550mm for every kW rated above 5kW should be connected directly to the outside air or an adjacent room which itself has a permanent vent of the same size direct to the outside air.

Fig 6: Horizontal register plate Fig 5: Horizontal register plate with optional vertical rear flue with top flue connection connection. A non-combustible register plate minimum 1.5 mm thick should be fitted to all installations between the flue and the building structure. It’s suitability and fit should be checked by a qualified stove installation engineer against the current Building Regulations “J”.
(e.g. a soot door or access through a register plate). Purpose-made soot doors and inspection lengths are available from the Clarke range. Ensure that the whole length of the flue can be reached from the soot door.
CARBON MONOXIDE ALARMS Due consideration should be given to the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning following incomplete combustion of solid fuels in an enclosed space. Carbon monoxide detectors to BS EN 50291 are available for use in domestic premises and details are available in the official HETAS guide that can be viewed on their website at www.hetas.co.uk.
USING YOUR STOVE THE CONTROLS The amount of heat emitted by the stove is regulated using the following air controls: A) The primary air supply is controlled by screwing/ unscrewing the lower air control built into the door. B) A second air inlet provides a constant, pre-heated air supply to the combustion just above the fire.
telegraph poles, or plywood / chipboard containing glues and resins which pollute the environment and cause the fire to burn too quickly. Such materials can produce excessive tar or creosote which can be damaging and in extreme cases cause a fire inside the chimney. The dryness of wood can be assessed by looking at the end of the log.
Be sure to remove the ash when the fire is at its lowest point, such as first thing in the morning. The Ash Can Filter is ideal for use in conjunction with the Clarke range of vacuum cleaners, for collecting hot ash and debris from stoves.
Wait until the stove has cooled down before doing this. This finish can be renovated with Clarke stove paint, although the paint may not be an exact match and it may be necessary to repaint the complete stove.

GLASS PANELS Clean any glass panels when cool, avoiding abrasive substances which could scratch the glass and make subsequent cleaning more difficult. Wet logs against a heated glass, a badly aimed poker or heavy slamming of the doors could crack the glass panels. The glass will not fracture with heat. Never replace any broken glass with glass NOT approved for use with cast iron stoves.
