Combustion air supply
In order for the stove to perform efficiently and safely there must be an adequate air
supply into the room in which the stove is installed to provide combustion air. The
provision of air supply to the stove must be in accordance with current Building
Regulations Approved Document J. An opening window is not appropriate for this
purpose.
Installation
It is prohibited to carry out unauthorised alterations to the stove.
There must be plenty of fresh air in the room where the stove is being installed, in order to
ensure proper combustion. Note that any mechanical exhaust ventilation e.g. an
extraction hood is not permitted. Any air grilles must be placed in such a manner, that
the air supply is not blocked.
The stove is equipped with four convection air outlets, which may be connected with
suitable air ducts to other rooms.
Building Regulations Approved Document J gives specific guidance on the required
permanent ventilation into the room for combustion air of solid fuel appliances.
The floor structure must be able to carry the weight of the wood burning stove, as well as
the weight of a chimney, if necessary.
When you choose where to set up your RAIS wood burning stove, you should consider the
heat distribution to the other rooms. This will enable you to get the best use out of your
stove.
The stove should be set up at a safe distance from inflammable materials.
See the manufacturer's plate on the wood burning stove.
Installation of stove:
NOTE ! A decision must be made concerning the positioning of the inlets and outlets of
the convection system. Discolouration of the wall above the doors and the
convection air outlets may occur due to convected hot air.
RAIS cannot take responsibility for any building work or consequential damage.
The stove should be inspected for defects at receipt.
