GENERAL
Thank you for buying a Stanley Shire Balanced Flue
Gas Stove. This room heater and special flue sys-
tem should be inspected before use and at least
annually. More frequent cleaning may be required
due to excessive lint from carpeting, matting materi-
al, etc. It is imperative that control compartments,
burners and circulating air passageways are kept
clean.
The Shire Balanced flue system is a combustion
system where the inlet air and exhaust gases enter
and exit through two separate concentric passage-
ways within the same vent system.
The Balanced Flue system allows this gas appliance
to be vented directly to the outside atmosphere.

SEALING THE FLUE JOINTS
The flue joints must be weather sealed to prevent
moisture entering the flue system. It is recommend-
ed that the flue joints are sealed with a high temper-
ature tape, such as aluminium tape.
VENT TERMINAL
The vent terminal must be located in accordance
with BS 5440: Part 1:1990 for natural draught
Balanced Flue. This standard is summarised in
Fig. 9 & Table 1.
FLUE CONNECTION
The Shire Balanced Flue Stove is approved to be
vented to the outdoors through an adjacent exterior
wall. The vent terminal is connected to the stove by
means of a horizontal flue pipe with concentric pas-
sageways. It is not permissible to put a vertical
length of flue on to this stove. The vent terminal
must be fitted to an exterior wall and located in
accordance with the requirements outlined in Table
1 (Page No. 6).
The flue pipe joining the stove to the vent terminal
must have two concentric passageways. The inner
passageway carries the products of combustion,
while the outer passageway carries the air supply for
combustion. It is essential that both passageways
are sealed from each other and in turn sealed from
the room in which this appliance is installed. It is not
possible to use fire cement on the flue joints as it
may restrict the airflow within the passageways.
Use the aluminium sealing tape provided with the
flue system. The flue pipe has an external diameter
of 150mm (6”).
When connecting the flue pipe to the stove always
keep the crimped end facing outwards.
Fig.9
The telescopic section of the flue can vary in length
from 400mm (16”) to 600mm (24”). When installing
the stove do not use a flue length greater than
600mm (24”) . The maximum allowable distance
between the stove and its flue terminal is 600mm
(24”) as outlined in Fig. No. 10.

METERS
Asuitable gas meter must be connected to the ser-
vice pipe either by a representative of the gas board
or by an appointed contractor. If using an existing
meter have it checked to ensure that the meter is
capable of dealing with the total rate of gas needed.
GAS PIPE SIZE
It is important that the correct service pipe size be
used for adequate gas supply. This depends on the
distance between the supply meter and the appli-
ance relative to the input requirements. The gas
supply to the appliance should be terminated near
the appliance with an approved safety type service
tap.
CONNECTION TO GAS SUPPLY
The gas control is located at the bottom right hand
side of the unit. Check that the mains gas supply
pipe is adequately sized and capable of supplying
enough gas to the appliance when operating on
max. rate.
WARNING: Before connecting the stove
make sure the gas supply pipe is clear of grit
and debris as this will cause blockage within
the stove control, pilot burner, injectors and
pipework. Failure to do so may void product
warranty.

WARNING: To avoid pipe sealing compounds
from entering into the gas train, do not apply
sealing compound to the first two threads at
the tip of the gas connection.
Fig.11
Fig.12
NOTE: Clean off any excess pipe compounds
from connections.
GAS SOUNDNESS TESTING
Gas soundness testing should be in accordance
with I.S. 813 (I.E.) and B.S. 6891 (U.K.). Correct
gas pressure and proper gas supply pipe sizing is
important for the successful performance of this
appliance. Make sure that the plumber or gas sup-
plier checks the gas supply line and gas pressure at
installation.
WARNING: Only connect to gas type indicated on
the rating plate.
CAUTION:
After testing gas supply pipe work, open isolation
valve to stove and carry out gas soundness testing
at normal working pressure 20 mbar for natural gas.
With stove lighting carry out a leak test downstream
of control using gas leak detection fluid.
CAUTION: If using a gas leak detection fluid for
leak testing DO NOT spray solution onto control
body.
The appliance must be isolated from gas supply
system during any gas soundness testing at pres-
sures in excess of 50 mbar.
WARNING: The ceramic coals supplied with
this stove are extremely durable and long last-
ing when fitted properly. They are, however,
very delicate and can be easily damaged if
they are not handled very carefully.
Handling damage to the ceramic coals is
not covered by warranty.
PLACEMENT OF COALS

Position the HI/LOW switch such that it is in the
HIGH position. This means that the stove will oper-
ate on its maximum output.
Running the stove at a low output
Position the HI/LOW switch such that it is in the
LOW position. This means that the stove will oper-
ate on its minimum output.
Extinguishing the stove
The stove can be extinguished at any time by
pressing the OFF switch on the wall unit. This will
extinguish the stove completely.
Remote Control Handset.
For all operations using the handset it should be
