We recommend that the stove be installed at least 10 - 15 cm from masonry, in order to allow heat to
circulate and to facilitate the cleaning of the inside and outside of the stove. A layer of wallpaper on a
brick wall is normally viewed as non-flammable material.
The floor
If the stove is installed on a flammable floor, national and local regulations must be observed with
regard to the size of the non-flammable underlying surface that must cover the floor beneath the stove.
The underlying surface must naturally be able to bear the weight of the stove and, if applicable, the
steel chimney.
Distance to furniture
The minimum clearance to combustible materials in front of the stove is 850 mm. The minimum
distance to combustible materials must be observed; furthermore, it should be considered whether
furniture and other items will dry out if placed near the stove.
A wood-burning stove gets hot when it is fired. Caution must therefore be observed, particularly with
regard to children touching the stove.
1.5 The chimney
If local regulations permit, the stove may be connected to a chimney already serving another fireplace
(such as an oil-burning stove or another wood-burning stove). Attention should be paid to any
requirements concerning the location of flue pipes if two or more fireplaces are connected to the same
chimney.
The wood-burning stove must never be connected to a chimney to which a gas-burning stove 4 is already
connected.
An efficient, modern stove places great demands on the chimney, so you should get the chimney sweep to
evaluate chimney.
The aperture of the chimney must comply with national and local regulations. In general, the aperture
area should measure at least 175 cm2 (150 mm diameter) for wood-burning stoves. An overly large
chimney aperture will mean that too much energy will be required to heat the chimney sufficiently to
achieve an acceptable draught in the chimney. If you have a brick chimney with a large aperture, we
recommend that you install an insulating chimney liner of the proper diameter. This will increase the
draught, and improve the fuel economy.
There are no requirements with respect to specific chimney heights, but a chimney must be tall enough
to provide a good draught, and to ensure that the smoke does not cause any problems. As a general
rule, there will be a satisfactory draught if the chimney extends 4 metres above the stove and at least
80 cm above the spine of the roof.
If the chimney is located along the side of the house, the top of the chimney should never be lower than
the spine of the roof or the highest point on the roof. Please note that there are often national and local
regulations concerning the location of chimneys in houses with thatched roofs. Please see section 1.9
on Draught.
The chimney and the flue pipe must be fitted with cleaning doors, which must be at least the same size as
the chimney’s aperture area.
The chimney must be accessible for external inspection, and it must be possible to access the cleaning doors
and the chimney if it is to be cleaned from the top (e.g. steel chimneys).
1.6 Connecting the flue pipe
Lift the upper cast iron top plate off the stove.
Note: the round cast iron cover plate in the top plate must remain mounted if the stove is being installed
with the flue pipe to the rear, but unscrewed from the upper top plate if the flue pipe is being installed
pointing upwards.
