The Chimney; Pipe Connections - Morso 7110 Instructions For Installation And Use Manual

1.5 The chimney

Only if National or Local Regulations permit are you permitted to connect a stove into a chim-
ney that is shared by another appliance. YOU MUST be aware of any applicable Regulations
in this respect.
The wood-burning stove must never been connected to a chimney to which a gas-burning stove
or appliance is connected.
An efficient modern stove places heavy demands on the chimney, and you should have the
chimney regularly swept and inspected by your approved chimney sweep.
The cross-sectional area of the chimney (at its narrowest point) must comply with National and
Local Building Regulations. Generally, the area needed for a Morsø wood-burning stove instal-
lation should measure at least 75 cm (50 mm diameter).
An over-sized chimney is generally hard to keep warm and results in poor draft. In cases where
there is an oversized masonry chimney, it is recommended that the chimney be lined using an
appropriate chimney lining system with the correct internal diameter.
With respect to the chimney termination, all chimneys should terminate in accordance with
National and Local Building Regulations.
Note that National and Local Regulations also apply with regard to the placement of chimneys
and flues in connection with thatched roofs. See the section on Draft Conditions, .9.
The chimney or flue system must be equipped with access doors for inspection and cleaning.
The size of the cleaning door in the chimney must at least equal to that of the cross-sectional
area of the chimney.
In the event that a chimney fire occurs resulting from faulty operation or prolonged use
of damp wood fuel, close the air vents completely and contact your local fire department
immediately.
1.6 Fluepipe connections
The stove is supplied with a factory fitted flue collar (), this is fitted to the top plate and a round
cast iron blanking plate fitted in the cast iron back panel behind the rear heat shield.
When required, the flue collar can be removed and relocated to the rear flue outlet. To do this,
simply knock out the round panel cut into the rear shield to reveal the cast iron blanking plate
situated behind. Untwist the blanking plate anticlockwise and remove. The flue collar can now
be clamped into position using the fixing lugs attached.
The blanking plate should then be positioned onto the top flue outlet and secured into place by
pressing downwards and twisting clockwise. The blanking plate can also function as an extra
clean-out access whilst performing the annual cleaning service of the stove and chimney.
