4.3 AIR SUPPLY
It is essential that you provide an adequate
air supply for safe and efficient operation
of your inset stove. The air supply will
ensure efficient combustion. Failure to do
so could result in smoke filling into the
room or blackening of glass.
Air Requirements
A permanent air entry opening or
openings, with a total free area of at
least 550mm2per kW of rated output
above 5kW, shall be provided.
Air duct terminal
fixed to wall
Flexi pipe

If a flue draught stabiliser is fitted, then the
first 5kW of rated output is 300mm2per kW
and the balance of the rated output is
850mm2per kW.
For newer build properties, the
requirements may need to be higher if
the design permeability of the home is
less than 5m3/h.m2. For more details, see
approved document J of the Building
Regulations.
This appliance is capable of having the air
supply introduced through the base (as per
previous page). The same equation with
respect to total free area must be adhered
to. Please order a room sealed kit from
Firebird to ensure air tightness is achieved
NOTE: Only Firebird’s room sealed kit can
be installed with a Firebird inset stove.
Please refer to kit instructions for full
guidelines.
NOTE: No extractor fan should be fitted in
the same room as the appliance.
4.4 FIREPLACE
When fitting into an existing fireplace,
remove fireback or boiler and clear out any
loose back fill material.
Access to the front of the chimney breast
may be required, via a hole, for fixing the
flue pipe and back filling.
4.5 HEARTH
The appliance must be installed on a
hearth that can take the weight and is of a
non-combustible material.
Ensure that when installing the appliance,
the following regulations are met:
IRL - Building Regulations 1997, Technical
GuidanceDocument5,statesthatthe
hearth must extend in front of the
appliance by 500mm and to the sides by
150mm.
UK-Buildingregulationsforclass1
appliances state that the hearth must
extend in front of the appliance by
300mm and to the sides by 150mm.
4.6 CHIMNEY/FLUE
In order for the appliance to have sufficient
draw to perform satisfactorily, a height of
no less than 4.5 meters, vertically from the
top of the appliance to the top of the
chimney, is required. Alternatively,
chimney design with sufficient draught
can be calculated, in accordance with
EN13384-1.
NOTE: a flue draught requirement of at
least 12 Pa is required.

The existing chimney must be checked
before installing the appliance. It must be
sound, free from cracks and blockages and
swept. It should not have an excessive
cross sectional area greater than 250mm
x 250mm square or equivalent area.
The chimney and connecting flue pipe
must have a minimum diameter of 150mm
and its dimension should not narrow to
less than the size of the outlet socket of the
stove at any point.
Do not connect the inset stove to a
chimney flue which is connected to
another appliance.
It is essential that you use only stainless
steel pipes for your inset stove and that
all installations are carried out in
accordance with building regulations
and manufacturer’s instructions. Always fit
pipes with the narrow side down, to allow
any creosote to run down the inside of the
pipe. This avoids possible fire risk.
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 temperatures
and have no evidence of cracks or other
faults.
Best installation practice is to install a flue
lining suitable for solid fuels. A 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.
4.7 INSTALLING AND BACK FILLING
1. Remove the inset stove from its
packaging and inspect for any
damage.
2. Placeadjustablelegstothebottomof
the inset stove if required.
3. Fit the appliance into the opening,
making sure it is central. A good seal
should be made between the flange
and the surround.
4. Remove any excess fire cement from
around the flange.
5. Ensure the stove is fixed to the hearth.
There are 4 preformed holes on the
side frames of the base to facilitate
fixing.
6. Before back filling, check the flue
connections. Ensure that the
materials used for back filling are
non-combustible.
7. Fit the flue connector to the top of the
appliance so that it is central to the
chimney and extends to the point
where the chimney narrows.
Ensure that the flue
manufacturer’s instructions are
adhered to at all times.
8. Back fill the appliance with vermiculite
concrete (the mix 6:1; 6 volumes of
vermiculite to 1 volume Portland
cement mixed thoroughly) add
enough water to activate the
cement.

9. All voids must be filled and the flue
pipe flaunched into the chimney,
so that no soot can collect when
sweeping the chimney.
10. Make good the holes in the front and
side of the chimney breast, ensuring
they are airtight. Remove any material
from inside the appliance and check
the flue pipe is clear.
4.8 CHECKS BEFORE LIGHTING
NOTE: Prior to lighting the inset stove,
allow sufficient time for the back fill to dry
at normal conditions.
The following checks should be carried out
prior to lighting a fire in the inset stove:
1. The fire grate is in place.
2. The flue is clear.

4.9 COMMISSIONING
Lightthereandcheckalljointsandseals.
Ensure that fumes and smoke are being
taken up the chimney and no fumes are
entering the room.
Before completing the commissioning, the
householder should be advised as to the
operation of the inset stove.
The instruction manual should remain
with the householder.
CO Alarms:
Building Regulations require that
whenever a new or replacement, fixed
solid fuel or wood/biomass appliance
is installed in a dwelling, a carbon
monoxide alarm must be fitted in the
same room as the appliance. Further
guidance on the installation of the
carbon monoxide alarm is available in
BS EN 50292:2002 and from the alarm
manufacturer’s instructions. Provision
of an alarm must not be considered a
substitute for either installing the
appliance correctly or ensuring regular
servicing and maintenance of the
appliance and chimney system.
5.0 OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
5.1 FUELS
HETAS Ltd. approval covers the burning of
the following smokeless fuels in this inset
stove:
• Ancit(smokelesscoal).
• AnthraciteLargeNuts.
• Centurion.
• Cosycoke.
• Maxibrite.
• Phurnacite.
• SunbriteDoubles.
• WelshDrySteamCoal(largenuts).
The above fuels are all suitable for smoke
control areas.
NOTE: Petroleum coke should never be
used on this appliance. If used, it will
invalidate the guarantee.
Wood can be used in this appliance.
The two main factors to be considered
when burning wood, are the moisture
content and the density.
Moisture in wood will have an effect on
theCV(amountofheatperunitvolume),
as any moisture in the wood has to be
boiled away before the wood will burn.
It can also create smoke and tars which
could be corrosive and increase the risk
of a chimney fire.
Well-seasoned logs can have
approximatelytwicetheCVof
unseasoned green logs.
Hard wood logs are denser than soft wood
logs and tend to burn for a longer period
of time.
Air dried wood should be seasoned for at
least 12 months before burning.
Wood that has been contaminated or
treated with varnish, paint or other
coatings and preservatives, should not be
used. Not only does it release noxious
chemicals into the air, but it can also
contribute to the amount of tar and
deposits building up in your chimney.
NOTE: You should never over stock/over
fill your inset stove. This is necessary to
avoid fuel falling out onto the glass door
and also to avoid chimney fires. Best
practice is not to fill above the front
frame of the inset stove.

11
5.2 LIGHTING AND CONTROLLING
5.2.1 WOOD
NOTE: Ensure the baffles are properly
installed prior to lighting the inset stove as
per Figure 1. Carry out all checks as per 4.8.
Place some kindling and a firelighter on
top of the grate, add some dry kindling
and a sufficient bed of fuel to enable a
good fire to take off.
Fully open out the secondary air control
(right hand side) and open the primary air
control (left hand side) to about half way.
See Figure 2.
Light the fire and close the door.
The room should be kept well ventilated
on the first lighting, as there may be an
odour and some smoke may be released.
Thisisjustthepaintreactingtotheheat
and will only last for a short time.
Whenthereiswelllit,adjusttheprimary
and secondary air controls to give you the
required level of flame. See Figure 3. For
best results, wood will generally need more
secondary air than primary air.
The following can be used as a starting
base for settings:
- Coal - primary air set on 3; secondary air
set on 1.
- Wood - primary air set on 1; secondary
air set on 3.
Please note however, that these may differ
with respect to fuel quality and draught.
The householder should ensure that they
become familiar with the settings to find
the optimum solution for their particular
stove.
Refuel the appliance when there is still a
good bed of glowing embers. Place the
required amount of logs on the bed, open
the secondary air control fully and close
the door.
Recommended refuelling volumes are as
follows (to achieve outputs highlighted in
section 4.1):
16”Stove
Wood Logs – 1.68kg/hr
Ancit – 1.17kg/hr
18”Stove
Wood Logs – 1.937kg/hr
Ancit – 1.377kg/hr
Oncethenewfuelhastaken,adjustthe
secondary air control.
Figure 2.
Figure 1.
Figure 3.

5.2.2 SMOKELESS FUEL
The same applies as with wood, but
you will require more primary air than
secondary air with smokeless fuel.
When burning Homefire or Anthracite
smokeless fuel, always have the secondary
air fully open on ignition. Leave it open for
3-5minutesandadjustthereafter.
5.3 OVERNIGHT BURNING
To achieve slow burning/overnight
burning with smokeless coal, close the
secondary air and open the primary air
slightly. Please note that slow burning may
cause the glass to blacken and cause sooty
deposits in the flue way.
Furthermore, these settings are guidelines
and are dependent on the draft and fuel
quality.
5.4 CLEARANCE OF ASH
The ash pan should be emptied on a
regular basis and always before it becomes
too full. See Figure 4. If ash is left to build
up close to the grate, it will cause damage
to it.
The ash pan is best emptied before you
riddle the fire, when the ash is at its
coolest. Check under the ash pan once a
week and clean this area if necessary.
See Figure 5. Ensure the bottom plate
(under the ash pan) is always replaced
after cleaning.
5.5 THROAT PLATE (BAFFLES)
5.5.1 INITIAL BURNING
In the first month after installation, the
baffles should be checked before each
ignition to establish a burning pattern to
fuel type. This is necessary because some
fuels deposit more soot than others. In
addition please refer to 4.6 of this manual
“cleaning of flue one month after
installation”.
5.5.2 REGULAR CHECKING
Remove and clean any fly ash or soot that
has built up. This should be done on a
regular basis, about once a month or more
as deemed necessary.
5.6 CO Alarms
Your installer should have fitted a CO alarm
in the same room as the appliance (see
also section 4.9). If the alarm sounds
unexpectantly, follow the instructions
under item no 6.6 below.
5.7 Extractor Fans
Do not fit an extractor fan in the same
room as this stove. This may cause the
stove to emit fumes into the room.

6.0 MAINTENANCE
6.1 CLEANING
When cleaning the glass, always do so
when the inset stove is cold. Abrasive
cleaners or pads should never be used on
the glass. For stubborn deposits, use a
proprietary stove glass cleaner or ceramic
hob cleaner.
The front of the appliance may be wiped
with a damp, lint free cloth and then dried
with a dry lint free cloth. Again, make sure
the appliance is cold.
6.2 DOOR SEALS
Check that the seals are in good condition
and in the correct place. If they are worn,
they should be replaced.
6.3 WHEN NOT IN USE
In the summer months or anytime that the
inset stove is not being used for a long
period of time, clean out the inside
thoroughly and open the primary air
control slightly.
This will help to prevent condensation,
and hence corrosion.
6.4 CHIMNEY CLEANING
The chimney should be cleaned at least
once a year and this can be done through
the inset stove. Remove the throat plates
(baffles) and fire bars prior to undertaking
a chimney clean.
Where the chimney is believed to have
served an open fire installation, it is
possible that the higher flue gas
temperature from a closed appliance may
loosen deposits that were previously
adhered, with consequent risk of flue
blockage. It is therefore recommended
that the chimney be swept a second time
within a month of regular use after
installation
6.5 CHIMNEY FIRES
If the instructions in this manual are
followed and the chimney is cleaned once
a year, chimney fires should not occur.
Should the chimney go on fire, close both
air intakes and ensure the door is fully
closed. This should be enough to ensure
the chimney fire dies. If the fire continues,
then call the fire brigade. Do not open the
inset stove door at any time during this
period as it may cause re-ignition. Leave
the door closed until the inset stove is cold.
The chimney must be swept and carefully
examined for damage after a chimney fire.
6.6 FUME EMISSION
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:
1. Open all windows and doors to
ventilate the room.
2. Let the fire go out.
3. Check for flue or chimney blockages
and clean if required.
4. Do not attempt to relight the fire until
the cause of the fume emission has
been identified and corrected. If
necessary seek expert advice.
5 Do not light the fire until the problem
is rectified.

14
The most common cause of fume emission
is a flue way or chimney blockage. For your
own safety, these must be kept clean at all
times.
6.7 SERVICING
The following is a guideline checklist which
can be used during servicing. Note that
other checks may be required (system
dependant):
- Check flue to ensure it is clear and free
from soot.
- Remove baffles, clean and ensure they
are replaced correctly.
- Check air supply to room or inset stove.
Ensure that it is clean, secure
and free from debris.
- Ensure that all seals are in good
condition.
- Ensure that air wash openings
are clear.
