Please take time to read this manual and follow the guidelines on how to install and operate your
new stove, as we feel sure it will enable you to use it to its best advantage for many years.
The term "multi-fuel" means that the stove is capable of burning a variety of solid fuel e.g. Wood,
Coal, Anthracite, Phurnicite and various preformed Briquettes ar a mixture of these. The multifuel
grate inside the stove allows a flow of air through the base of the fire. This is necessary when
burning coal. See the section on "Starting and maintaining the fire" for more details.
INSTALLATION
The detailed provisions in this document are intended to provide guidance for the more common
situations .Alternative ways may be appropriate in other circumstances. Building regulations must
be followed.
1. We recommend that you seek the services of an installer who is conversant with stove
installations and building regulations.
2. It is most important that there is no obstruction in the flue or chimney. Please ensure that the
flue is checked and swept before any installation. A flue draught of minimum 1.5mm to a
maximum 2.5mm water gauge is required for satisfactory appliance performance. The flue
draught should be checked under fire at high output and if it exceeds the recommend
maximum, a draught stabilizer must be fitted so that the rate of burning can be controlled, and
to prevent over firing. If you have any doubts about the suitability of your chimney, consult your
local specialist.
3. Ventilation is essential for the combustion process. It may be necessary to install a wall vent to
provide combustion air and prevent the depletion of oxygen in the room. This need is more
prevalent in modern house where drafts have been almost eliminated by double glazing
etc .Our gas models have an oxygen depletion sensor, this switches off the gas supply to the
stove if the oxygen content in the room falls below the desired leveI. This is not possible with a
multi-fuel stove.
4. Your stove must be installed on a non-combustible hearth and with a gap of at least 600mm
from any combustible material. ln front of the stove, to carpets or wooden floors there must be
300mm of hearth. 11 is possible that on opening the door of the stove for a log or coal to fali
out .A fender must be fitted if the heart is flush with the carpet.
5. A properly built masonry or factory installed chimney ,preferably with a height of 15 feet or
more ,should ensure a consistent draught (draw) under a variety of weather conditions .This
stove requires a chimney (not the flue pipe) with a minimum diameter of 150 mm (6"). If the
chimney and cavity are larger, this may result is less than optimum performance to and extent
where it may require a liner to improve the draught (draw) and performance of the
stove .certain cowls improve the draught (draw) of a chimney. If the draught (draw) on the
chimney is excessive, then a flue damper will help to slow this down. An excessive draught
(draw) may cause over firing and thus the internal components of the stove to wear out quicker.
6. The flue spigot (pre fibre roped) provided with the stove can be fitted to the rear or the top of
the stove and must be tightly fitted to the opening. This is so that air is not drawn in at this point
which will affect the stoves performance.
7. To get the best transfer of heat from the stove into the room there are two factors to consider.
Firstly, the flue pipe from the stove must pass through a "register plate". A register plate is the
term used for a flat plate which is installed up inside the chimney (usually out of sight) to
prevent heat from the stove being drawn up the chimney to waste. The register plate must be
made of anon-combustible material such as steel, asbestolux, or masterboard. It is advisable to
seal this register plate to the walls of the chimney and also around the flue pipe. Provision of a
trap door in the closure plate or a soot doo r in the flue for access to clean the chimney from
time to time is recommended.
