Thestovesareequippedwithcooldoorhandles  aRaisspecialfeature whichmeans
youcouldalmostdoawaywithgloves.Beaware,however,thatallexteriorsurfaces
becomehotduringuse  sotakeextremecare.
Convection
Raisstovesareconvectionstoves.Thismeansthatthestove’sbackandsidepanelsare
notoverheated.Convectionmeansthatthereisacirculationofair,whichensuresthat
theheatisdistributedmoreevenlythroughouttheentireroom.Thecoldairissuckedinat
thebaseofthestoveandupthroughtheconvectionchannel,whichrunsalongthe
stove’scombustionchamber.Theheatedaircomesoutatthetopofthestove,which
ensuresacirculationofwarmairthroughouttheroom.

InstallationInstructions
Thefollowingpagesgiveinstructionsforthesafeandproperinstallationofthisheating
applianceintheUK.Theseinstructionscoverthebasicprinciplesofinstallation,
althoughsomedetailsmayneedslightmodificationtosuitparticularlocalsiteconditions.
InallcasestheinstallationmustcomplywithcurrentUKBuildingRegulations,Local
AuthorityByelawsandotherspecificationsorregulationsastheyaffecttheinstallationof
thestove.
PleasenotethatitisalegalrequirementunderEnglandandWalesBuildingRegulations
thattheinstallationofthestoveiseithercarriedoutunderlocalAuthorityBuilding
ControlapprovalorisinstalledbyaCompetentPersonregisteredwithaGovernment
approvedCompetentPersonsScheme.HETASoperatesuchaschemeandalistingof
theirregisteredCompetentPersonscanbefoundontheirwebsiteatwww.hetas.co.uk.
ItshouldbenotedthatthecurrentBuildingRegulationsrequirementsaregivenin
ApprovedDocumentJ.Theserequirementsmayalsobemetbyadoptingtherelevant
recommendationsgiveninBritishStandardsBS8303,BS6461andBS7566.
WARNING.HealthandSafetyAdviceNotice.
TheinstallationofthisheatingapplianceisgovernedbytheHealthandSafetyatWork
Act1974.itistheresponsibilityoftheinstallertoensurethatallrequirementsofthisAct
aremetduringtheinstallationworks.Attentionisdrawninparticulartothefollowing:
Handling: Theapplianceisaheavyitemandadequatefacilitiesmustbeavailable
forloading,unloadingandsitehandling.
FireCement: Sometypesoffirecementarecausticandshouldnotbeallowedtocome
intocontactwiththeskin.Protectiveglovesshouldbewornwhen
handlingfirecement.Incaseofcontactwiththeskin,washimmediately
withplentyofwater.
Asbestos: Thisstovecontainsnoasbestos.Ifthereisapossibilityofdisturbingany
asbestosinthecourseoftheinstallation,thenpleaseseekspecialist
guidanceanduseappropriateprotectiveequipment.
MetalParts: Wheninstallingorservicingthisstovecareshouldbetakentoavoidthe
possibilityofpersonalinjury.
ImportantWarning  PreparatoryWorkandsafetyChecks:
· Thisstovemustnotbeinstalledintoachimneywhichservesanyotherheating
appliance.
· Theremustnotbeanextractorfanfittedinthesameroomasthestove,asthiscan
causethestovetoemitfumesintotheroom.
· Ifthisapplianceisinstalledintoanexistingchimney,thechimneymustfirstbe
sweptandexaminedforsoundnessandsuitability,beforetheapplianceisinstalled
(seealsosectionheaded‘Chimney’).

Chimney
Thechimneyisthedrivingforcewhichmakesthestovefunction.Inorderforthestoveto
performsatisfactorilythechimneyheightmustbesufficienttoensurethecorrectdraught
of14to18Pa,soastocleartheproductsofcombustionandpreventproblemsofsmoke
leakingintotheroomwhenthestoveislit.
Note:Achimneyheightofnotlessthan4.5metres,measuredverticallyfromtheoutletof
thestovetothetopofthechimney,shouldbesatisfactory.
AlternativelythecalculationproceduregiveninBS5854:1980maybeusedasthebasis
fordecidingwhetheraparticularchimneydesignwillprovidesufficientdraught.
Theoutletfromthechimneyshouldbeabovetheroofofthebuildinginaccordancewith
theprovisionsoftheBuildingRegulationsApprovedDocumentJ.
Iftheinstallationisintoanexistingchimney,thenitmustbesoundandhavenocracksor
otherfaultswhichmayallowfumesintothehouse.Olderproperties,especially,mayhave
chimneyfaultsorthecrosssectionmaybetoolargei.e.morethan230x230mm.
Remedialactionshouldbetakenifrequired,expertadviceshouldbesoughtwhere
required.
Ifthechimneyrequireslining,thenasuitablesolidfuelfluelinermustbeused,in
accordancewithBuildingRegulationsApprovedDocumentJ.
Anyexistingchimneymustbeclearofobstructionandshouldhavebeensweptclean
immediatelybeforetheinstallationofthestove.Ifthestoveisfittedinplaceofanopen
fire,then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.
Ifthereisnoexistingchimneytheneitheraprefabricatedblockchimney,inaccordance
withBuildingRegulationsApprovedDocumentJoratwinwallinsulatedstainlesssteel
fluetoBS4543canbeused.Thesechimneysmustbefittedinaccordancewiththe
manufacturer’sinstructionsandtheBuildingRegulations.
Asinglewallmetalfluepipeissuitableforconnectingthestovetothechimneybutis
notsuitableforusingforthecompletechimney.Thechimneyand
connectingfluepipemusthaveaminimumdiameterof150mmandit’s
dimensionshouldbenotlessthanthesizeoftheoutletsocketofthestovewhichis
150mm.Anybendinthechimneyorconnectingfluepipeshouldnotexceed45°.90°
bendsshouldnotbeused.
Combustiblematerialshouldnotbelocatedwheretheheatdissipatingthroughthe
wallsoffireplacesorfluescouldigniteit.Thereforewheninstallingthestoveinthe
presenceofcombustiblematerialsdueaccountmustbetakenofthe
guidanceontheseparationofcombustiblematerialgiveninBuildingRegulationsAp
provedDocumentJandalsointhesestoveinstructions.

Ifitisfoundthatthereisexcessivedraughtinthechimneytheneitheran
adjustablefluedamperoralternativelyadraughtstabilisershouldbefitted.The
adjustablefluedampershouldnotcloseofftheflueentirely,butshouldinits
closedpositionleaveaminimumcontinuousopeningfreeareaofatleast20%
ofthetotalcrosssectionalareaoftheflueorfluepipe.
Adequateprovisione.g.easilyaccessiblesootdoorordoorsmustbeprovided
forsweepingthechimneyandconnectingfluepipe.
Youshouldalsofamiliariseyourselfwiththedraughtconditionsforchimneys
with2flues.
Forstrongdraughts,thechimneyorflueshouldbefittedwithadraught
stabiliser.Inwhichcase,itisimportanttoensurethatthereisafreeflowthrough
areaofminimum20cm
2 whentheregulatinggateisshut.Otherwise,thefuel
energymaynotbeusedoptimally.
If,atanytime,youareunsureabouttheconditionofthechimney,youshould
contactachimneysweep.
Rememberthataccesstothesootdoorshouldbekeptclear.

Installation
Itisprohibitedtocarryoutunauthorisedalterationstothestove.
Theremustbeplentyoffreshairintheroomwherethestoveisbeinginstalled,inorderto
ensurepropercombustion.Notethatanymechanicalexhaustventilatione.g.an
extractionhoodmayreducetheairsupply.Anyairgrillesmustbeplacedinsucha
manner,thattheairsupplyisnotblocked.
Thestoveisequippedwithfourconvectionairoutlets,whichmaybeconnectedwith
suitableairductstootherrooms.
BuildingRegulationsApprovedDocumentJgivesspecificguidanceontherequired
permanentventilationintotheroomforcombustionairofsolidfuelappliances.
Thefloorstructuremustbeabletocarrytheweightofthewoodburningstove,aswellas
theweightofachimney,ifnecessary.
WhenyouchoosewheretosetupyourRAISwoodburningstove,youshouldconsiderthe
heatdistributiontotheotherrooms.Thiswillenableyoutogetthebestuseoutofyour
