INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Efficiency Declaration
The efficiency of this appliance has been measured as specified in
BS EN 613 : 2001 and the result is 73.3% (rear flue) & 67.6% (top flue). The net
calorific value of the fuel has been used for this efficiency calculation.
The test data from which it has been calculated has been certified by BSI Testing
Services.
The efficiency value may be used in the U Government’s Standard Assessment
Procedure (SAP) for energy rating of dwellings.
1.1 CONDITIONS OF INSTALLATION
It is the law that all gas appliances are installed only by a GAS SAFE Registered
Installer, in accordance with these installation instructions and the Gas Safety
(Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 as amended. Failure to install appliances
correctly could lead to prosecution. It is in your own interest and that of safety to
comply with the law.
The installation must also be in accordance with all relevant parts of the Local and
National Building Regulations where appropriate, the Building Regulations
(Scotland Consolidation) issued by the Scottish Development Department, and all
applicable requirements of the following British Standard Code of Practice.
1. B.S. 5871 Part 1 Installation of Gas Fires
2. B.S. 6891 Installation of Gas Pipework
3. B.S. 5440 Parts 1 & 2 Installation of Flues and Ventilation
4. I.S 813 : 1996 Domestic Gas Installation, issued by the National Standards
Authority of Ireland.
1.2 FLUE & CHIMNEY SUITABILITY
This appliance is designed for use with conventional brick built or lined chimneys
and fabricated flues and metal flue boxes conforming to BS 715 / BS EN 1856-2
All flues must conform to the following minimum dimensions.
Minimum diameter of circular flues 125 mm (Without Flue
Restrictor Fitted)
Minimum effective height of all flue types 3 metres
When fitting to conventional chimneys or 175mm flues it may be desirable to
fit the flue restrictor baffle (supplied) to reduce the flue flow and increase the
efficiency of the fire. Safe clearance of products must always be checked by
carrying out a smoke match test as described.
4

1.3 VENTILATION
This Portway stove has a nominal input not exceeding 7kw and therefore does not
normally require additional purpose made ventilation when installed in G.B. If,
however spillage is detected when commisioning the stove there may be
insufficient natural ventilation in the property and additional ventilation may
therefore be required. Any purpose made ventilation must be checked periodically
to ensure that it is free from obstruction.
When Installing in I.E. please consult document I.S. 813 : 1996 Domestic Gas
Installation, which is issued by the National Standards Authority of Ireland. If
installing in Northern Ireland, please consult local building regulations. Any
purpose made ventilation must be checked periodically to ensure that it is free
from obstruction.
1.4 CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE AND NON-COMBUSTIBLE
SURFACES
The Stove may be fitted below a combustible shelf providing there is a minimum
distance of 290mm above the top of the stove and that it does not extend in front
of the stove. There must be a minimum distance of 450mm to any combustible
side or rear surface. The minimum clearance to non combustible materials at the
sides and the rear is 50mm, but please ensure sufficient access to the draft
diverter on the rear right hand side of the stove can be achieved to complete the
spillage test when commisioning the stove.
1.5 FLUE / CHIMNEY INSPECTION
Before commencing installation, a flue or chimney should be inspected to ensure
that all the following conditions are satisfied.
1. Check that the chimney / flue only serves one fire place and is clear of any
obstruction. Any dampers or register plates must be removed or locked in
the open position.
2. Brick/stone built chimneys or any chimney or flue which has been used for
an appliance burning fuel other than gas must be thoroughly swept. The
base of the chimney / flue must also be thoroughly cleared of debris etc.
3. Any under-floor air supply to the fire place must be completely sealed off.
4. Ensure that the inside of the chimney / flue is in good condition along it’s
length and check that there is no leakage of smoke through the structure
of the chimney during and after the smoke pellet test.
5

5. Using a smoke pellet, check that there is an up-draught in the
chimney / flue and that the smoke can be seen issuing from the
terminal / chimney pot outside.
There must be no leakage of smoke through the structure of
the chimney during or after the smoke pellet test and it is
important to check inside upstairs rooms / loft spaces adjacent to the
chimney / flue. Check the chimney pot / terminal and general condition of
the brickwork or masonry. If the chimney or flue is in poor condition or if
there is no up-draught do not proceed with the installation. If there is a
history of down-draught conditions with the chimney / flue, a tested and
certificated flue terminal or cowl suitable for the relevant flue type should
be considered.
6. A spillage test must always be carried out during commissioning of
the appliance.
1.6 HEARTHS
This stove must only be installed on to a concrete or non-combustible hearth. The
hearth material must be a minimum thickness of 12mm with the top surface at
least 50mm above the floor. The hearth must be fitted symmetrically about the fire
opening and project at least 50mm from the base of the stove in all directions.
1.7 SPILLAGE MONITORING SYSTEM
This appliance is fitted with an spillage sensing thermal switch. This is designed
to shut the fire off in the event of a partial or complete blockage of the flue causing
a build up of combustion products in the room in which the fire is operated. The
following are important warnings relating to this spillage
monitoring system :-
1.7.1 The spillage monitoring system must not be adjusted by the installer.
1.7.2 The spillage monitoring system must not be put out of operation.
1.7.3 When the atmosphere sensing thermal switch is exchanged only a
complete original manufacturers part may be fitted. It is not possible to
replace individual parts on the pilot system on this appliance, only a
complete switch assembly (including the connecting wires) may be
fitted.
6

1.8 FITTING TO PRE-CAST FLUE INSTALLATIONS
When installing this appliance into pre-cast flues, always ensure that the spigot
restrictor baffle has been removed.
To install the stove into a pre-cast flue system, the stove must be set to the rear
flue configuration as detailed in section 2.7
The flue spigot extension supplied should be cut down to give a minmum
engagement of 25mm through the closure plate and a minimum clearance of
50mm to any part of the flue blocks.
It is important to ensure that the pre-cast flue is in good condition and is free from
extruded mortar or sealant from between the flue blocks.
This appliance has been tested for use in a pre-cast flue block system complying
with BS EN 1858. In accordance with BS EN 1858, pre-cast flues built with
directly plastered faces (front or rear) are not correctly installed as to ensure
proper operation with any type of gas stove. In some instances of this flue
construction, temperature cracking of surface plaster may occur through no fault of
the appliance. An air gap or some form of insulation material should be installed
to prevent normal flue temperatures from damaging wall surfaces.
This stove is not suitable for installation into pre-cast flue systems with a cross -
sectional are of less than 16,500mm2or any dimension less than 90mm.

2.9.6 The gas supply can be routed into the stove from the rear left, right or
centrally.
2.9.7 Store the removed burner components in a safe position.
2.9.8 The gas connection to the appliance should be made to the isolating /
inlet elbow using 8mm rigid tubing. There must be no soldered joints
below the stove.
2.9.9 Remove the pressure test point screw from the inlet elbow and fit a
manometer.
2.9.10 Turn on the main gas supply and carry out a gas tightness test.
2.9.11 Fit the batteries as per section 2.10. Please then consult section 3.2 to
3.5 for full lighting instructions.

2.10 FITTING THE BATTERIES
2.10.1 To prevent un-necessary battery drain, the battery pack that is
used to provide the remote and electronic control function for this
product is disconnected at the factory. Prior to attempting to light the
product, can the installer please ensure that the battery pack is
re-connected as shown in section 2.10.2 & 2.10.3 below.
2.10.2 Locate the battery pack in the support cradle at the bottom L/H side of
the stove (batteries are fitted to this from the factory).
2.10.3 The wire and connecting plug from the battery pack should then be
re-connected into the supply wire running from the control unit / valve.
See figure 11 below.
