Firebird recommend that a thorough
inspection of the chimney is carried out
prior to installation and on a regular
basis thereafter.
The chimney should be of sound
construction, free from debris, capable
of withstanding extremely high

cracks or other faults.
Best installation practice is to install a
flue lining suitable for solid
rigid connection adaptor should be
used to connect the flue liner to the
inset stove.
Pipe bends should be kept to a
minimum and there should be no more
˚
than two 45
bends on any installation.
Flues should not pass through ceilings,
floors or any form of combustible
walls without adequate, approved
insulation having been installed, to
protect the combustible material.
If the stove is filled in place of an open
fire, the chimney should be swept one
month after installation to clear any
soot falls which may have occurred
due to the difference in combustion
between the stove and the open fire.

inset stove if required.
3. Remove any excess fire cement
from around the flange.
