INSERT STOVE INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
When installing, operating and maintaining your
stove respect basic standards of fire safety. Read
these instructions carefully before commencing the
installation. Failure to do so may result in damage to
persons or property. Consult your local Municipal
office and your insurance representative to deter-
mine what regulations are in force. Save these
instructions for future reference.
Special care must be taken when installing the stove
such that the requirements of the Health & Safety at
Work Act are met.
Handling
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. In
case of contact with the skin wash immediately with
plenty of water.
Asbestos
This stove contains no asbestos. If there is a possi-
bility of disturbing any asbestos in the course of
installation then please seek 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: This stove must not be
installed into a chimney that serves any other
heating appliance. There must not be an extrac-
tor fan fitted in the same room as the stove as
this can cause the stove to emit fumes into the
room.
3
NOTE: Please note that it is a legal requirement
under England & 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 Ltd operate such a Scheme and
a listing of their Registered Competent Persons
can be found on their website at www.hetas.co.uk.
Please refer to the current standards, BS EN 15287-
1:2007 Design, Installation and Commissioning of
chimneys. BS EN 14336:2004: Heating Systems in
Buildings. Installation & Commissioning of Water
Based Heating Systems. BS EN 12828: 2003;
Heating Systems in Buildings. Design of Water
Based Heating Systems. BS EN 12831: 2003;
Heating Systems in Buildings. method for
calculation of the design heat load.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The installation of any electrical services during the
installation of this stove must be carried out by a
registered competent electrician and in accordance
with the requirements of the latest issue of BS 7671.
PRE-INSTALLATION
After removing the stove from the packaging, open
the fire door and remove the loose packing. Prior to
installation all the internal components of the stove
are removed to gain access to fixings and to make it
lighter for installation.
Measure the proposed location for the stove to
ensure that the required space is available and that
the front of the stove can fit within the fire surround
with provision for the required clearances.
Remove the firebar retainers. To remove the baffle,
lift the baffle and slide it forward. When it is clear of
the support rib, lift one side which will allow the
opposite side to drop down into the centre of the
stove. The baffle can then be removed while held at
an angle.
The installation must be completed in
accordance with current National and
European Standards and Local Codes. It
should be noted that the requirements and
these publications may be superseded during
the life of this manual.
Fig 1

If installation is into an existing chimney then it must
be sound and have no cracks or other faults which
might allow fumes into the house. Older properties,
especially, may have chimney faults or the cross
section may be too large i.e. greater than 10” diam-
eter. Remedial action should be taken, if required,
seeking expert advice, if necessary. If it is found nec-
essary to line the chimney then a flue liner suitable
for solid fuel must be used in accordance with
Building Regulations Approved Document J.
Any existing chimney must be clear of obstruction
and have been swept clean immediately before
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.
Any bend in the chimney or connecting flue pipe
should not exceed 45o. 90obends 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 sepa-
ration of combustible material given in Building
Regulations Approved Document J and also in these
stove instructions.
If it is found that there is excessive draught in the
chimney then a draught stabiliser should be fitted.
Fitting of a draught stabiliser will affect the require-
ment for the permanent air supply into the room in
which the stove is fitted in accordance with
Approved Document J (see also combustion air sup-
ply).
The chimney can be swept through the stove or
alternatively an easily accessible soot door can be
provided for sweeping the chimney and connecting
flue pipe.
4
CHIMNEY
THIS PRODUCT IS SUITABLE FOR CHIMNEY
INSTALLATION ONLY.
The stove is a radiant room heater and must be con-
nected to a chimney of the proper size and type.
The chimney must have a diameter of at least
150mm. It is recommended that a flue liner of diam-
eter 150mm be used to line the chimney, the liner
should be approved for use with solid fuel. See
Fig.3.
An adaptor is available where required to fit between
the flue outlet and a 6” flexible flue liner.
Never connect to a smaller size chimney. Do not
connect to a chimney serving another appliance.
In order for the stove to perform satisfactorily the
chimney height must be sufficient to provide a con-
tinuous draught of at least 15 Pa so as to clear the
products of combustion and prevent smoke prob-
lems into the room.
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 EN
13384-1 may be used as the basis for deciding
whether a particular chimney design will provide suf-
ficient draught.
The outlet from the chimney should be above the
roof of the building in accordance with the provisions
of Building Regulations Approved Document J.
It is permitted to connect using a closure plate and a
connection piece from the stove to the closure plate
(See Fig. 4), provided that the chimney is of sound
construction with no leaks or cracks, a clay flue liner
has been used that can withstand up to 1000oC, and
the clay liner has a diameter no greater than
200mm.

Adaptor/
Closure Plate
The stove must be conencted from the flue spigot to
the chimney/ flue with a suitable flue connection that
provides an air tight seal. There is no requirement
to seal between the stove and the hearth or between
the stove and the fireplace. The boiler can be insu-
lated externally with fireproof rockwool insulation,
backfilling with vermiculite is not recommended as it
may affect the operation of the air controls.
Step 2
Ensure the floor area is level with the hearth, this
area needs to be level as the insert fire is screw
fixed to the floor.
Step 3
Decide which boiler tappings are to be used to con-
nect the boiler. Remove the temporary plugs from
the other two connections and replace with perma-
nent boiler plugs.
Step 4
Remove all internal parts as per pre-assembly
instructions prior to lifting it.
Step 5
Inset the stove to its final position.

through the chimney and into the stove.
Step 7
Lay the sealing gasket on to the flue spigot, connect
the flue spigot to the flexi pipe using a 5” extension
pipe and a 5” - 6” adaptor. It is not recommended to
fit a flexi flue liner within 600mm of the stove flue
spigot.
Step 8
Pull the flexi liner back up through the flue outlet and
fix the flue spigot into position using the M8 bolts
provided. It may be necessary to cut a prop to hold
the spigot in place while the fixings are being
attached.

and compare to the chimney, decide on best orien-
tation of the offset adaptor.
Step 11
Push the offset adaptor into position and make a
seal using approved fire cement between the adap-
tor and the clay liner. The seal should be tapered to
allow any condensation that may occur in the
chimney flow back into the flue. See Fig.7.

FRONT REMOVAL & FITTING
If necessary the front casting can be removed to
improve access at the side of the product when
making the connections. First remove the screws
fixing the door to the hinges while supporting the
door and ensuring the surface does not get dam-
aged (extra care is needed on enamel finish).

Then remove the 4 front fixing screws (see Fig.10)
which will allow the front casting and the surround-
ing shroud to be removed from the boiler by sliding
it to the left to clear the secondary air control rod and
then pulling it forward, in some circumstances it may
be necessary to unscrew the secondary air contol
rod before removing the front. The wall flange can
then be removed by unscrewing the fixings on top
and sliding it up clear of the guides. (see Fig.11)
Make the required connections and replace the front
in reverse order making sure that the front seals fully
to the boiler.
DOWN DRAUGHTS
However well designed constructed and positioned,
the satisfactory performance of the flue can be
adversely affected by down draught caused by near-
by hills, adjacent tall buildings or trees. These can
deflect wind to blow directly down the flue or create
a zone of low pressure over the terminal. A suitable
anti-down draught terminal or cowl will usually effec-
tively combat direct down blow but no cowl is likely
to prevent down draught due to a low pressure zone.

VENTILATION AND COMBUSTION AIR
REQUIREMENTS
It is imperative that there is sufficient air supply to
support correct combustion. The minimum effective
air requirement for this appliance is 54cm2. When
calculating combustion air requirements for this
appliance use the following equation: 550mm2per
each kW of rated output above 5 kW should be pro-
vided, where a flue draught stabiliser is used the
total free area shall be increased by 300mm2for
each kW of rated output. If there is another appli-
ance using air fitted in the same or adjacent room, it
will be necessary to provide an additional air supply.
Especially Airtight Properties:-
If the stove is being fitted in a property where the
design air permeability is less than 5m3/ (h.m2) (nor-
mally newer properties built from 2006), then a per-
manent ventilation must be fitted to provide 550mm2
of ventilation for each kW of rated output. If a
draught stabiliser is also fitted then the requirement
is 850mm2per kW of rated output.

8
All materials used in the manufacture of air vents
should be such that the vent is dimensionally stable,
corrosion resistant, and no provision for closure.
The effective free area of any vent should be ascer-
tained before installation. The effect of any grills
should be allowed for when determining the effective
free area of any vent. Air grills should be positioned
so that they are not liable to blockage.
Air vents direct to the outside of the building should
be located so that any air current produced will not
pass through normally occupied areas of the room.
An air vent outside the building should not be locat-
ed less than the dimensions specified within the
Building Regulations and B.S. 8303: Part 1 from any
part of any flue terminal. These air vents must also
be satisfactorily fire proofed as per Building
Regulations and B.S. 8303: Part 1.
Air vents in internal walls should not communicate
with bedrooms, bedsits, toilets, bathrooms or rooms
containing a shower.
Air vents traversing cavity walls should include a
continuous duct across the cavity. The duct should
be installed in such a manner as not to impair the
weather resistance of the cavity.
Joints between air vents and outside walls should be
sealed to prevent the ingress of moisture. Existing
air vents should be of the correct size and unob-
structed for the appliance in use. If there is an
extraction fan fitted in adjacent rooms where this
appliance is fitted, additional air vents may be
required to alleviate the possibility of spillage of
products of combustion from the appliance/flue
while the fan is in operation. Refer to B.S. 8303 Part
1.
Where such an installation exists, a test for spillage
should be made with the fan or fans and other appli-
ances using air in operation at full rate, (i.e.extrac-
tion fans, tumble dryers) with all external doors and
windows closed.
If spillage occurs following the above operation, an
additional air vent of sufficient size to prevent this
occurrence should be installed.
PERMANENT AIR VENT
The stove requires an adequate air supply in order
for it to operate safely and efficiently. The installer
may have fitted a permanent air supply vent into the
room in which the stove is installed to provide com-
bustion and/or ventilation air. This air vent should
not under any circumstances be shut off or sealed.
Extractor Fan
There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the same
room as the stove as this can cause the stove to
emit smoke and fumes into the room.
Outside Air Kit / External Ducted Air (Optional)
An Outside Air Kit is available as an optional extra,
please contact your local dealer for details.
‘HETAS product approval covers this appliance
when installed in accordance with the manufactur-
er’s instructions and relevant standards. As there is
currently no standard for Ducted Combustion Air
Supply this does not fall within the remit for HETAS
product approval. Responsibility for the specification
of this and for appropriate manufacturer’s instruc-
tions is carried by the appliance manufacturer, as
allowed for under the Building Regulations.’
COMMISSIONING & HANDOVER
On completion of the installation allow a suitable
period of time for any fire cement and mortar to dry
out, when a small fire may be lit and checked to
ensure the smoke and fumes are taken from the
stove up the chimney and emitted safely to the
atmosphere. Do not run at full output for at least
24 hours.
On completion of the installation and commissioning
ensure that the operating instructions for the stove
are left with the customer. Ensure to advise the cus-
tomer on the correct use of the appliance with the
fuels likely to be used on the stove and warn them to
use only the recommended fuels for the stove.
Advise the user what to do should smoke or fumes
be emitted from the stove. The customer should be
warned to use a fire guard to BS 6539 in the pres-
ence of children, aged and/or infirm persons.

REGULATIONS
The plumbing must be in accordance with all
relevant regulations and practices. It must include a
gravity circuit with expansion pipe, open to the
atmosphere. The central heating will normally be
pump-driven as with other types of boilers.
GRAVITY CIRCUIT
The gravity circuit consists of the domestic hot water
tank of 135 litres indirect cylinder, fixed in an upright
position, recommended for hot water storage and it
should be connected to the boiler by 28mm diame-
ter flow and return piping. The pipes should not
exceed 7.8 meters (25ft) in length and cylinder and
pipework should be fully lagged. The shorter the run
of pipe work the more effective the water heating.
There must be no gate valves on this circuit and it
must have an expansion pipe exhausting to atmos-
phere. Cylinder and pipe work should be lagged to
minimise heat loss.
The water system must be properly vented and a
double-feed indirect cylinder to the current issue of
BS 1566, Copper indirect cylinders for domestic pur-
poses, Part 1 Specification for double feed indirect
cylinders is necessary where there is a combined
hot water and central heating system
The water system must be properly vented, a dou-
ble- feed indirect cylinder to the current issure of BS
1566, Copper indirect cylinders for domestic pur-
poses, Part 1 Specification for double feed indirect
cylinders is necessary where there is a combined
hot water and central heating system.
This diagram illustrates the basic principal of water
heating systems and must not be regarded as a
working drawing. See Fig.16.

PLUMBING

INJECTOR TEE
Where the gravity and central heating circuits join
together to return to the stove we recommend the
use of an injector tee connection, situated as close
to the unit as possible. This type of tee encourages
a stable flow of water through both circuits and
helps to prevent priority being given to the stronger
flow, which is most commonly the pumped central
heating circuit.
DRAIN COCK
To allow the central heating system to be drained a
‘drain cock’ should be fitted at the lowest part of the
system.
WATER CIRCUIT TEMPERATURE
The return water temperature should be maintained
at not less than 40°C so as to avoid condensation on
the boiler and return piping. Fitting a pipe thermo-
stat to the flow pipe of the gravity circuit and wiring it
into the pump control will ensure rapid circulation of
the hot water.
In some circumstances it may be possible to over-
heat the appliance and the water inside will boil.
This will be evident by the sound of a knocking noise
coming from the appliance and pipes around the
house. If this occurs close off all air controls and
manually start the central heating pump. One radia-
tor on the heating circuit should remain uncontrolled,
this radiator will provide a heat leak and prevent the
situation where there is nowhere to discharge hot
water should the heating controls be satisfied. Be
aware that steam and boiling water will be expend-
ed from any open vent from the heating system
probably in the roof space at the expansion tank.
In the unlikely event that the appliance is not oper-
ating in freezing conditions the water must be
drained from the boiler to prevent frost damage.
PIPE THERMOSTAT
The fitting of a pipe thermostat to the flow pipe is
essential in order to activate the water circulation
pump when the water reaches the selected
temperature.
When the water temperature falls below the select-
ed temperature the pipe thermostat will cut off the
water circulation pump in order to allow the boiler to
recover. See Fig.17.
Fig 18
SECONDARY AIR CONTROL - SLIDER
When burning wood, pull the secondary air slider sit-
uated on the left hand side out fully. The air control
is a slider operation, pull to open and push to close.
The control can be gradually moved between fully
open and fully closed for the desired setting. Fully
open will be the hottest setting, as this will provide
the maximum air to the fire and will help to clean the
glass even after it has become sooty. This control
can be used in conjunction with the primary air but
generally the fire will perform best if the slider is
used when burning wood and the primary air control
is used when burning manufactured smokeless
fuels. These controls are hot when the appliance is
in use. Use the glove provided to operate air
controls and door handle when they are hot.
See Fig 19.
NOTE: When burning anthracite the secondary
air control must be closed.
Fig 19
PRIMARY AIR CONTROL
When burning manufactured smokeless fuels, the
primary air control knob located on the right hand
side controls the primary air supply to the stove. For
maximum heat output and burn rate rotate the knob
fully in a clockwise direction. For a minimum burn
rate rotate the knob fully in an anti-clockwise
direction until fully closed. See Fig 20
Secondary
Air Slider

When burning wood the primary air control should
be closed or open a minimal amount to maintain the
fire.
Fig.20
20g and 140g. Other fuels are commercially avail-
able and may give similar results. Wood logs up to
420mm long are suitable. All fuels should be stored
under cover and kept as dry as possible prior to use.
Do not use fuels with a Petro-coke ingredient as this
may cause the grate to overheat, causing damage.
Reduced outputs will result when fuels of lower
calorific values are used. Never use gasoline or
gasoline type lantern fuel, kerosene, charcoal lighter
fluid or similar liquids to start or freshen up a fire in
this heater. Keep all such liquid well away from the
heater at all times. The appliance should not be
used as an incinerator. Operate the stove only with
the fuelling door closed except for re-fuelling.
This stove has obtained HETAS approval for burning
natural and manufactured smokeless fuels only as
detailed in recommended fuels below. HETAS
Approval does not cover the use of other fuels either
alone or mixed with the recommended fuels listed,
nor does it cover instructions for the use of other
fuels.
DOOR HANDLE OPERATION
The stove is supplied with a detachable door handle.
To open the door, insert the silver end of the handle
into the door latch on the fire door, turn the handle
clockwise and pull the door towards you. To close
the door, insert the handle into the door latch as
before, push the door closed, turn the handle anti-
clockwise to engage the door catch and remove the
door handle.
Alternatively the door handle supplied can be fixed
in place. To fix the door handle remove the spigot
from the end and thread the handle directly into the
door latch.
The glove provided should be used to open/close
the door when the stove is hot.
RE-FUELLING
When refuelling with manufactured smokeless fuel
riddle the fire by connecting the grate operating tool
onto the rocker connection located at the bottom
front of the stove. Then gently pull and push the
rocker arm until all dead ash has fallen through into
the ashpan. Before opening the door, open the pri-
mary air by turning the knob clockwise, as this will
help to eliminate any smoke or fly ash resident in the
combustion chamber. Add fuel to fire, taking care
not to overfill higher than the front firebars. Close
13
NOTE:-
A boiler model stove will provide heat into the boil-
er and also to the room in which it is situated. The
heat to room is in a fixed relationship with the heat
to the boiler.
The heat to the boiler is controlled by the air supply
to the stove which is required to have a thermosta-
tic damper for safety reasons. When the tempera-
ture of the water in the boiler exceeds 55 ˚C the
thermostatic damper will begin to shut off the air
supply, should the water temperature continue to
rise the thermostatic damper will continue to close
and if the water temperature reaches 85 ˚C the
thermostatic damper closes the primary air supply
fully.
In the event where a stove is fitted to a central heat-
ing system which is undersized in relation to the
nominal heat output to boiler then the stove will
operate satisfactorily but will be unable to achieve
the nominal heat output to room as the thermostat-
ic damper will shut off the air supply to prevent an
overheat situation in the boiler.
For example:- Where a stove provides 2kW to the
room and 8kW to the boiler and if the thermostatic
damper shuts down the air supply to provide 4kW to
the boiler, then the heat to room will decrease pro-
portionally to 1kW.
RECOMMENDED FUELS
All fuels should be stored under cover and kept
as dry as possible prior to use.
This appliance has been tested using seasoned
wood logs and manufactured briquetted smokeless
fuel (Ancit) for closed appliances, sized between

fire door and re-set control knob to required setting.
Do not operate this appliance with the fire door
open. (See Fig.21)
When burning wood the requirement to riddle the
fire is much less. Do not riddle the fire with the pri-
mary air open but fully open the secondary air con-
trol instead. Remember to reset the controls after
refuelling.
SLOW BURNING
To achieve slow burning when burning wood close
the secondary air slide and open a few millimetres
using the tool provided. Slow burning will cause the
window glass to blacken and should not be used for
a long period as it will leave sooty deposits in the
flueways. Opening the air slide will increase the
heat output and will clear the glass.
To obtain slow burning when burning coal, close the
secondary air fully and partially open the primary air
control.
DE-ASHING
Never allow the ashpan to over fill as it will cause
damage to the grate. Empty the ashpan before
lighting. Always ensure that ashes have thoroughly
cooled before removing the ashpan. To remove the
ashes open the fire door and slot the long tool onto
the ashpan. Then lay the ashpan caddy over the
tool and align directly in front of the ashpan. Pull the
tool to draw the ashpan into the caddy. See
Figs.22& 23. Close the fire door. When the ash is
disposed of, replace the empty ashpan. Do not leave
the fire unattended with the fire door open, even for
a minute.
WARNING - NEVER DISPOSE OF ASH WHEN
STOVE IS LIGHTING.
Fig.22
MAINTENANCE
CREOSOTE: Formation and Need for Removal
When some fuels are burned slowly, they produce
tar and other organic vapours, which combine with
expelled moisture to form creosote. The creosote
vapours condense in the relatively cool chimney flue
of a slow-burning fire. As a result, creosote residue
accumulates on the flue lining. When ignited cre-
osote makes an extremely hot fire.
CHIMNEY CLEANING
The chimney should be cleaned twice annually. The
chimney can be cleaned through the stove by
removing the fire lining and the baffle. The flue liner
should be cleaned in accordance with manufactur-
ers instructions. Always use a brush with plastic
bristles that is the correct size to reach all areas of
the flue. REMEMBER COAL GASES ARE TOXIC

WARNING NOTE
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:
(a) Open doors and windows to ventilate room and
then leave the premises.
(b) Let the fire out .
(c) Check for flue or chimney blockage and clean
if required.
(d) Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause
of the fume emission has been identified and
corrected. If necessary seek expert advice.
The most common cause of fume emission is flue-
way or chimney blockage. For your own safety
these must be kept clean at all times.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Now that your Solid Fuel stove is installed and no
doubt you are looking forward to many comforts it
will provide, we would like to give you some tips on
how to get the best results from your stove.
1. We would like if you could take some time to
read the operating instructions/hints, which we
are confident, will be of great benefit to you.
2. Do not burn fuel with a high moisture content,
such as a damp peat or unseasoned timber.
This will only result in a build up of tar in the
stove and in the chimney and the possibility of a
chimney fire.
3. CLEAN THE FLUE-WAYS OF THE STOVE
EVERY WEEK AND ENSURE THAT THERE
ARE NO BLOCKAGES. CHECK FLUEWAYS
BEFORE LIGHTING ESPECIALLY AFTER A
SHUT-DOWN PERIOD. PLEASE REFER TO
MANUAL FOR INSTRUCTIONS.
4. Before loading fresh fuel into the firebox, riddle
fully to remove all ashes this will allow better and
cleaner burning. See Re-Fuelling Section.
5. Never allow a build up of ashes in the ash pan,
as this may cause the grate to burn out prema-
turely.
6. Allow adequate air ventilation to ensure plenty
of air for combustion.
7. Do not burn rubbish/house hold plastic.
8. Clean the chimney at least twice a year.
9. Burning soft fuels such as timber and peat will
stain the glass. Regular cleaning will prevent
permanent staining.
10. Keep all combustible materials a safe distance
away from the appliance, please see section for
clearances to combustibles.
12. Never use Aerosols near stove when alight.
11. For safety reasons never leave children or the
elderly unaccompanied while stove is in use.
Use a fireguard.
12. Avoid contact with appliance when in use as the
stove reaches very high operating tempera-
tures.
13. This appliance should be regularly maintained
by a competent service engineer. Use only
replacement parts recommended by Waterford
Stanley. Using unauthorised parts will invalidate
your guarantee and may cause damage or
injury.
AN ODOUR WILL EMIT FROM STOVE ON FIRST
FIRING, WHEN FIRE REACHES MAXIMUM
TEMPERATURE OVER A NUMBER OF HOURS
THIS ODOUR WILL SUBSIDE.
IT IS BEST ADVISED TO OPEN WINDOWS
DURING THIS PERIOD.
THIS ODOUR IS UNPLEASANT BUT NOT TOXIC.
YOU MAY WISH TO VACATE THE ROOM WHILE
THE PAINT CURES.
LIGHTING
Before lighting the stove check with the installer
that the installation work and commissioning
checks described in the installation instructions
have been carried out correctly and that the
chimney has been swept clean, is sound and
free from any obstructions. As part of the stoves
commissioning and handover the installer
should demonstrate how to operate the stove
correctly.
IMPORTANT: The first few fires should be rela-
tively small to permit the refractory to set prop-
erly and to season the stove.
15

1. Before lighting the stove, ensure that any build-
up in the firebox has been removed and that
the ashpan has been emptied.
2. Open the primary air control by turning it
clockwise. Open secondary air control by
sliding it to the left. These parts will become hot.
Use the tool or glove provided.
3. Lay a few crumpled sheets of paper on the
grate and then a few small sticks, kindling or an
approved firelighter. Ignite and close the door.
4. Never use inflammable liquid i.e. gasoline,
petrol paraffin etc. to start or freshen up a fire in
this heater.
5. When the fire is well established add fuel to the
firebox. Adjust to the desired primary setting
and / or the secondary air slide depending on
the fuel burned. (See Re-Fuelling Section).
6. To shut the fire down, do not add fuel. Make
sure that the fire door is properly closed, that
the primary air control is firmly shut and the
secondary air slide is pushed fully into the right.
Cutting off the air supply will reduce the heat
output.
CO ALARMS
Building Regulations require that whenever a new or
replacement fixed solid fuel or wood/biomass appli-
ance is installed in a dwelling a carbon monoxide
alarm must be fitted in the same room as the appli-
ance. 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 cor-
rectly or ensuring regular servicing and mainte-
nance of the appliance and chimney system.
Your installer should have fitted a CO alarm in the
same room as the appliance. If the alarm sounds
unexpectedly, follow the instructions given under
“Warning Note” below.
WARNING:-
If the CO Alarm sounds unexpectedly:-
1. Open Doors and windows to ventilate the
room and then leave the premises.
2. Let the fire go out.
FIRE SAFETY
To provide reasonable fire safety the following
should be given serious consideration:
1. The installation of smoke detectors.
2. A conveniently located fire extinguisher to con-
tend with small fires resulting from burning
embers.
3. A practical evacuation plan.
4. A plan to deal with a chimney fire as follows:
a. Notify the fire department.
b. Prepare occupants for immediate evacua-
tion.
c. Close all openings into the stove.
d. While awaiting the fire department watch for
ignition to adjacent combustibles from over
head stove pipe or from embers or from
sparks from the chimney.
FROZEN SYSTEM
If there is any possibility that the water system may
be frozen do not attempt to light the stove until you
are certain there is no ice in the system possibly
causing a blockage.
GLASS
1. How to clean:
The glass will clean itself when there is sufficient
heat generated by burning fuel. If a build-up of cre-
osote occurs on the glass it may be due to draft
conditions, poor quality fuel or very slow burning for
a long time. Only clean glass when the stove is
thoroughly cooled. Clean with a liquid detergent
taking care not to scratch the glass with any coal
ash deposits.
2. Glass Replacement::
a. Open the door fully.
b. Remove the clips and carefully remove the
broken glass.
c. Clean the glass recess in the door.
d. Place the glass into the door recess and replace
the four corner clips.
e. Tighten screws.
f. Replace glass only with ceramic glass 5mm thick.
SUMMER SHUTDOWN
For summer shutdown of the stove, ensure all
ashes have been cleaned from the ash compart-
ment and that the air control is open, to avoid con-
densation in the stove firebox and possible corro-
sion during this shutdown period.
