1:2007 –DESIGN INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING OF CHIMNEYS.
WARNING NOTE:
Properly installed, operated and maintained this stove will not emit fumes into the dwelling.
Occasional fumes from de-ashing and re-fuelling may occur. However, persistent fume emission is
potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated. If fume emission does persist, then the following
immediate action should be taken:-
a) Open doors and windows to ventilate the room and then leave the premises.
b) Let the fire go out.
c) Check for flue or chimney blockage and clean if required.
d) Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause of the fume emission has been identified
and corrected. If necessary seek expert advice.
The most common cause of fumes emission is flueway or chimney blockage. For your own safety
these must be kept clean at all times.
A CO detector must be fitted in the same room as this appliance to conform to UK requirements of
installation.
“The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas”Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the
whole or part of the district of the authority to be a smoke control area. It is an offence to emit smoke from a
chimney of a building, from a furnace or from any fixed boiler if located in a designated smoke control area.
It is also an offence to acquire an "unauthorised fuel" for use within a smoke control area unless it is used in
an "exempt" appliance ("exempted" from the controls which generally apply in the smoke control area). The
Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has powers under the Act to authorise smokeless
fuels or exempt appliances for use in smoke control areas in England. In Scotland and Wales this power rests

with Ministers in the devolved administrations for those countries. Separate legislation, the Clean Air
(Northern Ireland) Order 1981, applies in Northern Ireland. Therefore it is a requirement that fuels burnt or
obtained for use in smoke control areas have been "authorised" in Regulations and that appliances used to
burn solid fuel in those areas (other than "authorised" fuels) have been exempted by an Order made and
signed by the Secretary of State or Minister in the devolved administrations. Further information on the
requirements of the Clean Air Act can be found here : http://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/Your local authority

IMPORTANT
FIRST FIRING MUST BE LOW –kindling only with 50mm or so diameter logs for 2 hours to dry the
refractory Silicon Carbide slowly. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL CRACK THE APPLIANCE.
1. INTRODUCTION
We would like to thank you for choosing our product and wish you every success and
happiness with your Ecco Woodburning Stove E580.
Your stove is tested to EN13240 for Europe and the UK, when burning wood logs only.
Installation of this appliance must be carried out with regard to the requirements of
BS8303-2:1994
Please read these instructions carefully: The installation and use of your Ecco Stove E580 is
subject to in country regulations where it is to be used eg. Building Regulations in the UK.
The installer must be aware that all local regulations, including those referring to National
and European standards must be complied with when installing this appliance.
The efficiency and suitability of the chimney to be used must be checked before installation
–not all chimneys are suitable.
The Ecco Stove E580 is tested for use with wood logs –you must check with your local area
authority to ensure it is permissible to burn wood logs in the area where the stove is to be
installed.
Your installer will be able to advise you on the suitability of this stove to be installed for the
space you wish to heat.
You may need fresh air from outside introducing in to the room despite an outside air kit
being available. This combustion air must be introduced into the room within which the
stove will stand.
Some, but not all, of the technical information required to install the Ecco Stove E580 is
contained within this handbook. Its technical details are to be found at the rear.
2. PURPOSE
Wood burning stoves are intended as a secondary form of heating to support the home
heating system. Over use or overheating of the appliance may damage it; therefore please
use it within the parameters of this handbook.

3. MATERIALS
The Ecco Stove E580 is primarily constructed from Silicon Carbide, a material that has a high
affinity to absorb heat but radiate it slowly and gently, therefore permeating greater
distances within the home than conventional materials of stove construction.
Radiant heat is omitted from the outer surfaces and initial heat from the glass door panel.
4. FLUE OUTLET (150 DIAMETER)
Your Ecco Stove E580 is delivered with a top flue outlet only. If the installation demands, a
45° bend may be taken from the top of the stove and back into the chimneys flue.
The pipe directly off the stoves top must include a soot door/access plate within 200mm of
the stoves top for access for flue ways cleaning which are located beneath the stoves top
and forward of the flue outlet. The Ecco Stove E580 must have its own, dedicated flue. It
must not be shared with another appliance.
Do not connect to a flue serving another appliance.
Access must be provided for cleaning the chimney’s flue and stove connector pipe as
described above.
5. GLASS
The door glass fitted to your Ecco Stove E580 is 4mm ceramic. It is deemed a consumable
item and is not covered by the warranty.
When replacing the glass ensure that the screws retaining the glass clips are tightened to
hand tight only as over tightening will crack the glass.
Breakage of the door glass is usually as a result of closing the door onto an over filled fire
box or onto a larger log than the fire box can accommodate.
6. CLEAR GLASS OPERATION
Blackening of the door glass results from poor quality (unseasoned) wood or the stove being
burned at less than 160°C on its top plate.
A chimney draught of less than 0.06 inches water gauge will impair the stoves performance
and hence it’s ability to keep the door glass clean. Your installer must check this for you
before installation.

Do not load logs with their end grain pointing towards the door as this will result in
blackening of the door glass.
Always arrange logs across the fire box. We cannot guarantee the glass will stay clear
however, high temperature burning will allow the secondary/tertiary air inlets to
substantially clear any blackening of the glass. White or grey fly ash deposits should be
wiped off before restarting the stove when the glass is cold using a damp cloth and ash from
the stove’s grate, as a cleaner.
7. AERATED BACK PLATES (Panels)
The back panels (pre drilled panels at the rear of the stove) are consumables and will
deteriorate in use. The panels are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. Damage to
the back panels can be caused by over firing but more typically by logs being smashed
against them when refuelling the stove.
Load the stove with care.
8. ASH GRATE
The cast iron grate within your Ecco Stove E580 is highly durable but will be damaged if ash
is allowed to build up in the grate bars. Ash build up will also impair the stoves primary
combustion as the air flow will be choked.
Riddle the grate by hand upon relighting, retaining only charcoal for re starting the fire.
For removal, the grate can be lifted out through the door when opened.
The raised section of the grate is the top back with its purpose being to hold the back panels
(see 7) in place.

9. ROPE SEALS
Rope seals will deteriorate. When worn or flattened such that they do not make a
satisfactory seal, replace the rope seal with 8mm ceramic rope but ensure the indent within
the rope groove is well cleaned/scrapped and degreased before fitting new seals.
Compressive seals between the Silicon Carbide sections do not need replacement unless the
stove is stripped and moved, then 8mm rope and 20mm ladder back self- adhesive tape
must be used.
Door ropes should be replaced with 8mm rope and ash pit seal should be replaced with
10mm flat tape adhered with rope adhesive (when showing signs of wear or after 2 years,
whichever comes first).
Rope seals are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
10. FINISHES
The Ecco Stove E580 is produced from a self coloured material and as such, variations in
colour and texture of the material will be evident, but adding to the uniqueness of the
product, unless ordered as pre factory painted.
Initially and for the following 3 to 5 firings your stove will produce what appears to be toxic
fumes and is often mistaken for smoke leaking out of the appliance.
Typically this smoke has a “factory” type smell and is generally not wood smoke, simply the
paint curing on the stoves outer surfaces.
Please ensure the room is well ventilated in this eventuality. Do not add more logs to the
stove; let such fumes dissipate.
WARNING –Never spray aerosols in the vicinity of the stove when the stove is under fire.

11. AIR CONTROLS
Your Ecco Stove E580 has three systems for air inlets for combustion.
a) TERTIARY AIR
The aerated back panels provide Tertiary air from an air inlet at the back of the stove.
This is set fully open and non-adjustable.
b) PRIMARY AIR
Open the ash pit drawer 10mm or so to fire the stove up to its optimum 160°C to 180°C
operating temperature on the top plate.
Only when the stove has reached its minimum 160°C should the primary air ash pit
drawer be closed. At this stage the pre-set secondary and tertiary openings will
automatically take over.
b.1) PRIMARY AIR WITHOUT OUTSIDE AIR OPTION
Primary air is provided for initial combustion and will remain fully open whilst the stove
reaches its minimum optimum operating temperature of 150°C on the top plate.
c) SECONDARY AIR
Secondary air is automatically fed into the fire box as in Primary and Tertiary air with no
other control available.
This secondary air provides an air wash of very hot oxygen to burn down the inside of
the Ecco Stove’s glass door to provide clean combustion in conjunction with the Tertiary
Air and clear the majority of the blackening on the door glass.
It is important to note that poor flue draft will impair the stoves performance (less than
0.04 inches water gauge). Equally important excessive flue draft (over 0.06inches water
gauge) will cool the stove too quickly.
d) OUTSIDE AIR
Outside air is an extra option. When fitted the Ecco Stove E580 draws its combustion air
predominately from outside via the flexible 1 metre long air tube provided. Outside air
reduces drafts into the room in which the appliance stands but doesn’t obviate the need
for separate and fresh air into the room (to satisfy UK requirements)
This air is pre-heated before being delivered into the same points of combustion as with
the standard stove operation
1. Primary air to beneath the grate bed
2. Secondary air down the face of the glass
3. Tertiary air through the same pre drilled back boards.
The combustion characteristics have not changed.

Patent pending USA, Canada, Europe & Russia | UK Patent nos: 2467433 & 2498883
e) RE LIGHTING (WITH OUTSIDE AIR)
Open the ash pit drawer 3mm or so to begin combustion and only close when the stove
has reached its optimum 160-180˚C top surface temperature. No other adjustments
can be made. Close the drawer at optimum temperature for automatic operation to
continue.
f) CLOSING DOWN
Your Ecco 580 will continue in combustion at all times. No facility to shut it down exists.
Close the flue damper if fitted (only after combustion is completed).
g) FLUE DAMPER
To retain maximum heat within the appliance when heat retention is required and only
AFTER Primary combustion, close the flue damper, if fitted. ALWAYS open the damper
30 seconds before opening the stoves door or ash pit drawer.
Dampers left open
Operation with the air controls or appliance dampers open can cause excess smoke. The
appliance must not be operated with air controls, appliance dampers or door left open
except as directed in the instructions.
12. FIRING THE STOVE
1. Commissioning
Ensure all parts are fitted in accordance with these installation instructions.
Ensure that any wet items such as fire cements or adhesives for rope seals are allowed
to dry before lighting the stove.
When the stove is first lit, check all seals for soundness and check the flue is functioning
correctly and all products of combustion are venting safely to atmosphere via the
chimneys terminal.
Ensure the homeowner is given the operating instructions and a brief run through using
the instructions to demonstrate operation is made to familiarise the new user with the
procedures as set out in the operating instructions.
Clearly state fuels suitable for use on this stove (wood logs).
IMPORTANT advise the new user that should smoke or fumes be emitted from the stove
close the ash pit control on the stove; windows and doors should be opened
immediately to ventilate the room; and the room evacuated until specialist help and
advice (sweep or fire brigade) has been sought.
DO NOT OVER FIRE THE STOVE FOR ITS FIRST FIRING OR AFTER LONG PERIODS BETWEEN
BURN CYCLES.

Run for 2 hours with kindling and 50mm or less diameter wood for an initial gentle fire.
If the stove has been unfired/unused for a period of time and left in a damp location,
moisture will be absorbed into the Silicon Carbide and manifest itself as condensation on the
initial re-firing.
a) INITIAL FIRING
The stove may be started with fire lighters or paper twists and kindling.
Start with 1.5kg kindling with the ash pit drawer (primary air) open 3mm or so only to
start the fire.
Add 2 loads of 3kgs of logs for a further 2 batches to bring up to 200°C maximum
operating temperature.
When the stoves top has reached between 160 - 180°C the ash pit drawer should be
closed for normal operation.
The primary control ash pit drawer is now to remain closed until refuelling when it
should be opened by 3mm or so for only 3 minutes or so to start the new fuel charge
into initial combustion, then again fully closed for normal operation.
b) SUBSEQUENT FIRING
Re starting the fire after its initial firing should be carried out with the ash pit cleared out
and the ash pit drawer opened 3mm or so to raise the stove to 160-180˚C optimum
running temperature at which point the ash pit drawer must be closed.
Re start with approximately 3kg of wood provided the stove is still warm or kindling if
not.
A raging lively fire will be seen which is ideal. Run as such until the stoves top is up to
minimum 160°C, maximum 200°C.
Refuelling on a low fire bed - If there is insufficient burning material in the fire bed to
light a new fuel charge, excessive smoke emission can occur. Refuelling must be carried
out onto a sufficient quantity of glowing embers and ash that the new fuel charge will
ignite in a reasonable period. If there are too few embers in the fire bed, add suitable
kindling to prevent excessive smoke.
c) RE FUELLING AFTER STARTING
The re fuelling should be in 3kg batches to raise the stoves top temperature to 200°C
maximum. When the stoves top temperature has reached 160°C to 180°C the ash pit
drawer should be closed.
d) OVER FIRING WARNING
Never over fill the firebox. 3kg or so is a full load. Running the stove over 200°C
constitutes over firing, after which point damage may occur to the stove.

Fuel overloading - The maximum amount of fuel specified in this manual should not be
exceeded, overloading can cause excess smoke.
e) UNDER FIRING WARNING
When re lighting; re fuelling or re firing the Ecco Stove, it must be fired up to 160°C or
above in order that each new wood load turns into proper combustion –if allowed to
“tick over” on un-combusted wood, tar will build up within the stove and flue, causing a
fire hazard and blockages within the stove.
13. CONTINUOUS BURNING
a) INITIAL FIRING
WARNING RUN THE STOVE WITH KINDLING AND MAXIMUM 50 MM DIAMETER LOGS
FOR THE FIRST 2 HOURS OF OPERATION TO AVOID CRACKING THE SILICON CARBIDE.
The stove may be started with either a fire lighter or paper twists with kindling
(approximately 1.5kg) open the ash pit drawer for 3mm for start primary air. When
initial combustion is underway add a 3kg batch of wood laid across the fire box.
Continue running as such until the stoves top reaches a minimum of 160 - 180°C when
the ash pan for secondary and tertiary air flows.
Continue to run as such between 150°C to 200°C thereafter.
To maintain a higher sustained output from repeated intermittent firing. The stove may
be run day and night by repeated intermittent firings but will not burn for more than 2-4
hours on one filling or before re fuelling (dependent upon how well the fire draws and
the density of the fuel being burned).
To close the stove down as far as possible ensure the ash pit drawer is fully closed.
b) SUBSEQUENT FIRING
Re starting the stove after its initial firing should be carried out with the ash pit cleared
out and the ash pit drawer open 3mm or so for maximum primary air to see a bright fire.
This will rapidly warm up the stoves body. Burn brightly as required for heat output
needed, but minimum restart temperature of 150˚C on stoves top, upon which the ash
pit drawer must be closed.
c) RE FUELLING AFTER STARTING
Re fuelling before the initial fuel is fully burned away with 1.5kg of wood but ensure the
end grain is pointing away from the door glass. Run for 2 minutes or so to ensure the
new load of wood is in combustion then close the ash pit drawer to ensure best
combustion and to keep the door glass clear.

Patent pending USA, Canada, Europe & Russia | UK Patent nos: 2467433 & 2498883
The stove may be run as such for as long as needed. Your Ecco Stove E580 is not
designed to stay in for long periods or overnight.
d) REFUELLING ON A LOW FIRE BED
If there is insufficient burning material in the fire bed to light a new fuel charge,
excessive smoke emission can occur. Refuelling must be carried out onto a sufficient
quantity of glowing embers and ash that the new fuel charge will ignite in a reasonable
period. If there are too few embers in the fire bed, add suitable kindling to prevent
excessive smoke.
e) OPERATION WITH DOOR LEFT OPEN
Operation with door left open can cause excess smoke. The appliance must not be
operated with the appliance door left open except as directed in the instructions.
14. ASH REMOVAL
Ash removal must only be carried out when your Ecco StoveE580 is not alight as removing
the ash drawer would over fire the appliance.
Remove the ash drawer fully for emptying but ensure it is re fitted to follow the lighting
procedure at 13a in this manual.
15. FUELS
a) WOOD
Wood as a fuel should be 20-25% moisture content using split logs 100 to 150mm in
diameter for best combustion. Harder, more dense logs will generally burn more slowly.
Wood should ideally be loaded across the grate. Avoid end grain of logs pointing toward the
glass door to minimise tarring on the glass. Under no circumstances must the Ecco Stove
E580 be used as an incinerator to burn household waste or refuse.

Patent pending USA, Canada, Europe & Russia | UK Patent nos: 2467433 & 2498883
16. RE FUELLING
After 2 or so hours burning your Ecco Stove will need re fuelling. You may either add 2 o 3
logs on a full 3kg charge –subject to how you intend to run the stove and the heat output
you are looking for. Either way, burn the fuel charge into full combustion then close the ash
pit drawer for the secondary and tertiary air flows to take over.
17. TAR DEPOSITS
WARNING when wood is burned slowly it produces tar and other organic vapours which
combine with the expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote vapours will condense
in the relatively cool chimney flue of a slow burning fire. As a result creosote deposits form
on the flues lining presenting a fire hazard as they are highly combustible.
Creosote build up must be removed to prevent a fire hazard within the chimneys flue.

Tar deposits will not form if seasoned logs of 20-25% moisture are burned at 160°C or above
(recorded on the top plate) within your Ecco Stove. If tar deposits form within the stoves
flue ways or fire box it is clear indication of poor quality unseasoned wood being burned.
Damage will occur within your stove along with poor performance.
18. FLUE CONNECTION AND FLUE LININGS
Under no circumstances should the diameter of any flue or lining leaving the stove be
reduced less than its 150mm diameter flue outlet.
The stoves connector pipe must have an access panel/soot door built in within 200mm of
the stoves top for cleaning within the stove’s internal flue ways and for stove pipe lining
sweeping.
The flue lining and flue ways in the stoves top must be cleaned a minimum of twice every
seasons burning.
Any joints between pipes and linings should be self tapped together.
6” linings are suitable for flue heights up to 9 metres
7” linings should be used above 9 metres in height.
High temperature hot face linings are suitable but not above 225 x 225 in section.
It is advisable not to connect the Ecco Stove E580 to clay linings within chimneys, unless
those clay linings have a hot face liner fitted within, in order to reduce condensation within
the chimney flue.
ANY FLUE INTENDED FOR USE MUST BE SWEPT IN ADVANCE AND TESTED FOR SUITABILITY
PRIOR TO THE APPLIANCE BEING INSTALLED. IF INSTALLINGTHIS STOVE ONTO AN
EXISTING FLUE WHICH IS DEEMED/TESTED AS SUITABLE WHICH WAS PREVIOUSLY USED
FOR AN OPEN FIRE, THE FLUE MUST BE SWEPT AGAIN WITHIN A MONTH OF INSTALLATION
AS THE HIGHER TEMPERATURE OF FLUE GASES MAY LOOSEN THE OLD OPEN FIRES BUILT
UP DEPOSITS, TO ENSURE BLOCKAGE DOESN’T OCCUR.
19. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The Ecco Stove E580 under top flue way must be cleaned at least twice in a burning season.
Access must be left in the stoves pipe within 200mm of the stoves top and brushed forward
into the stove under top flue way from there.
a) SEASONAL USE
b) Repairs or replacements must be carried out by a competent engineer.
c) Ensure the flue way accessed through the stove pipes cleaning door (within 200mm of
the stoves top) is brushed or vacuumed out

THE STOVE IS NOW READY FOR RE-USE
20. FINISHES
a) SILICON CARBIDE –needs only a light dusting down –as it is a natural finish
discrepancies in overall effect or colours are to be expected.
b) PAINT FINISHES
The heat resistant paint used to colour/finish your Ecco Stove will give off a noxious
smell for a number of initial firings as the heat from the stove “cures” the paint in place.
If and when this occurs, open doors and windows in the room to ventilate the “factory
like” odour but avoid refuelling the stove until the smell has dissipated.
If the finish becomes dirty to the colour changes over time (heat resistant paint finishes
do change with heat intensity which is normal) the Ecco Stoves paint can be “touched
up” but only when cold, by using a paint supplied by the manufacturer or retailer.
Never respray the stove body when the stove is in fired use or hot.
A light oil can be used to “freshen” the paint finish (but only when the stove is cold and
not under fire) such as WD40. Apply such oil with a nylon pad such as Scotch Brite or
similar rather than using a lint cloth –which will leave bits of lint on the stoves surface.
