Building permission
It may be necessary for you to apply for building
permission from your local planning authority before
installing a stove or erecting a chimney. Before
starting installation work, make sure that you check
which regulations apply.
Structural support
Check to make sure that the floor is strong enough
to support the weight of the stove and chimney. If
you intend to locate the stove on standard wooden
floor joists, contact a professional builder to make
sure that the construction will withstand the load. If
the total weight does not exceed 400 kilos, it is not
usually necessary to reinforce the joists.
Floor plate
To protect the floor from sparks and falling embers
the stove must stand on a non-combustible surface
which extends at least 300 mm in front of the
stove and 100 mm along each side. As other
statutory requirements apply in some countries, we
recommend that you consult the relevant authority
or an authorised chimney-sweep in your area.
Chimney
The stove requires a draft in the chimney of at least
–12 Pa. The draught is affected both by the length
and area of the chimney, and by how well sealed it is.
Minimum recommended chimney length is 3.5 m and
a suitable cross section area is 150-200 cm² (140-
160 mm in diameter).
Carefully check that the chimney is sealed and that
there is no leakage around soot hatches and flue
connections.
Note that a flue with sharp bends and horizontal
routing reduces the draught in the chimney. Maximum
horizontal flue is 1 m, on the condition that the vertical
flue length is at least 5 m.
It must be possible to sweep the full length of the flue
and the soot hatches must be easily accessible.
