STOVE PERFORMANCE & TESTING
Westre UNIQ 26, 27 & 28 have been approved in accordance with EN 13240.
PREPARATORY WORK AND SAFETY CHECKS
IMPORTANT WARNING
This stove must not be installed into a chimney that serves any other heating appliance. There must not be an
extractor fan tted in the same room as the stove as this can cause the stove to emit fumes into the room.
CHIMNEY
Chimney Connection
Flue Diameter 125 mm
IMPORTANT: Once the stove is unpacked and checked it is necessary to remove the central bar from the ue
collar of the stove before installation. To remove unbolt collar remove bar and replace collar.
In order for the stove to perform satisfactorily the chimney height must be sucient to ensure an adequate
draught so as to clear the products of combustion and prevent smoke problems into the room.
Minimum draft: Westre UNIQ26, 27, 28 stove has been tested with a draft of 12 Pa. Maximum draft 25 Pa.
Flue gas ow 4.4 g/sec.
Flue gas temperature 263°C. approximately 12 Pa.
NOTE: The outlet from the chimney should be above the roof of the building in accordance with the provisions of
Building Regulations Approved Document J. 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. Westre Aps recommend the use of a solid fuel ue lining
system for all installation into existing chimneys. All chimney systems must be used in accordance with Building
Regulations Approved Document J.
If there is no existing chimney then either a prefabricated block chimney in accordance with Building Regula- tions
Approved Document Jor a twin walled insulated stainless steel ue to BS1856-1. These chimneys must be tted in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and Building Regulations. A single wall metal ue pipe is
suitable for connecting the stove to the chimney but is not suitable for using for the complete chimney. The con-
necting ue pipe must have a minimum diameter of 125 mm and its dimension should be not less than the size
of the outlet socket of the stove. Registered smoke exempt models burning wood only can be installed on ue of
125mm throughout. Any bend in the chimney or connecting ue pipe should not exceed 45°. 90-degree bends
should not be used other than within 150 mm of stove rear ue outlet.
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 BS5854:1980 may be used as the
basis for deciding whether a particular chimney design will provide sucient draught.
If it is found that there is excessive draught in the chimney, then either an adjustable ue damper or alternately a
draught stabiliser should be tted. The adjustable ue damper should not close o the ue 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 ue or ue pipe. Adequate provision e.g. easily accessible soot door or doors must be provided for swee-
ping the chimney and connecting ue pipe.

Your appliance needs to be maintained routinely, the throat plate/bae should be cleaned regularly (monthly).
The ue pipe can be cleaned using a exible brush. Only Use a dry cloth on external surfaces. Over time the glass
may become dirty, clean with a damp cloth and polish o with damp cloth. If the stove has not been used for
some time the ue should be checked for blockages before use. Do not modify the appliance; only use spares
authorised by the manufacturer.
Distance to Combustible materials
Combustible materials should not be located where the heat dissipating through the walls of replaces or ues
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 Approved
Document Jand also in these stove instructions.
Hearth
The hearth should be able to accommodate the weight of the stove and its chimney if the chimney is not inde-
pendently supported.
The Westre UNIQ26, 27, 28 wood stove has been tested and is suitable to be installed on a 12mm non combus-
tible plate such as Westre 12mm glass plates or 20mm slate plates. Installation of all hearths should comply in
size and construction so that it is in accordance with the provisions of the current Building Regulations Approved
Document J.
The clearance distances to combustible material beneath, surrounding or upon the hearth and walls adjacent to
the hearth should comply with the guidance on the separation of combustible material given in Building Regula-
tions Approved Document Jand also in these stove instructions.
If the stove is to be installed on a wooden oor, it must be covered with a non-combustible material at least 12
mm thick, in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document J, to a distance of 30 cm in front of the
stove and 15 cm to each side measuring from the door of the combustion chamber.
Combustion air supply
In order for the stove to perform eciently and safely there should be an adequate air supply into the room in
which the stove is installed to provide combustion air. This is particularly necessary if the room is double-glazed
or a ue draught stabiliser is operating in the same room as the appliance. The provision of air supply to the
stove must be in accordance with current Building Regulations Approved Document J. An opening window is not
appropriate for this purpose. Air inlets must be positioned in such a way that they cannot be blocked. An air inlet
may be a vent (the vent must be open and the capacity of the vent sucient when the stove is lit) or a fresh air
system linked to the stove.
The Westre UNIQ26, 27 & 28 are available with a closed air supply collar (additional item) this enables the stove
to take combustion air directly from outside with a 100 mm pipe from the stove.
There are no European rules regarding the minimum distance to non-ammable walls, Westre recommend
leaving a gap of at least 10 cm behind and to sides of stove.

Westre Insulated chambers
The Westre UNIQ26, 27, 28 wood burning stove is lined with heat deection panels and baes, these panels are
designed to ensure the maximum eciency and are an integral part of the clean burn process of the stove. These
baes should not be removed apart from for cleaning the stove. Any defective panels should be replaced.
Connection to chimney
Westre UNIQ26, 27, 28 wood stove has both rear and top ue connector that allows connection to either a
masonry chimney or a prefabricated factory made insulated metal chimney in accordance with the instructions for
“Connection to chimney” given in the instruction booklet.
Commissioning and handover
Ensure loose parts are tted in accordance with the instructions, page 14. ‘Vermiculite re brick installation
sequence’ before handover. Operation of primary and secondary air controls must be fully explained.
On completion of the installation allow a suitable period of time for any re cement and mortar to dry out, when
a small re may be lit and checked to ensure the smoke and fumes are taken from the stove up the chimney and
emitted safely to 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 customer 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 reguard to BS6539 in the presence of children, aged and/or inrm persons.
Operating your stove – UNIQ 26,27, 28
Initial lighting
The heat-resistant paint on your stove will cure and harden the rst time you light your appliance. The curing process
produces a good deal of smoke and odour, it is therefore important that the rst time you light your stove the room
should be well ventilated. During the process it is important to open and close the stove door periodically (every
30mins) during the rst couple of rings therefore preventing the door seal cord around the door from sticking and
coming away from the door. Once the Heat-resistant paint has hardened; the stove door must be kept closed except
when lighting the stove, adding rewood or removing ash in order to prevent ue gas from escaping.
Lighting your appliance
Quality Firelighters should be used when lighting the stove. (Never use mentholated spirit, petrol or other
ammable liquids). Lighting your stove with re lighters will be more reliable and easier than paper.

WESTFIRE ·WF26 WF27 WF28

UK
To light your stove
1. Place a few smaller pieces of dry wood (kindling) in the stove on top of the non toxic relighters.
2. Fully pull open the air slider (secondary air) and the air slider on ash pan (Primary air) it maybe necessary pull
the ash pan drawer open 1cm as well)
3. Light the relighters close the door.
4. Once the re has caught, add two pieces of wood measuring approx 20cm with a combined weight of approx
1.3kg and close the door.
5. After approximately 1 minutes when the re is burning brightly shut the air control on the ash pan.
6. After approximately another 3 minutes close the secondary air slider by 55%, for the stove to burn cleanly
plenty of secondary air is needed, do not be tempted to shut the re down too early as this may cause
smoke. At nominal heat output, expect to refuel your stove approximately once every 50 min.
WF26, WF27 and WF28 are all equipped with a control valve for secondary air designed to ensure a plentiful
supply of oxygen during ring. When lit, the stove will get very hot and due care must therefore be exercised.
Please use a glove when operating levers and dampers.
RE-FUELING
To re-fuel in the cleanest way. Before refuelling open secondary air slider fully, also open primary air slider fully (on
ash pan) and leave for 5 minutes. Open door gently, add two pieces of wood measuring approx 20cm with a
combined weight of approx 1.3kg and close the door. Leave the air sliders open for 10 minutes to allow the re to
reach a good temperature. Then close primary air slider (on ash pan) and slide secondary air value to 45% open.
In the event of a chimney re: Close the air damper and the stove door, and call 999 or your local re
department.
If your stove is over heating close all dampers and door must be closed, and left until the stove has return to
nominal temperatures’.
Basic Positions of air sliders during Operation
You will need to become familiar with your stove in order to be able to regulate the secondary air intake correctly,
as factors such as the quality and height of your chimney, the quality of your fuel and the external conditions play
a large role in your stove performance. It is easy to see whether the stove is functioning correctly; however
incomplete combustion may lead to a build-up of hard, shiny soot on the inside of your stove and glass. To prevent
sooting of the chamber and glass introduce secondary air, also check that your wood is dry.
It is important to check the draft conditions before lighting your stove. This may be done, for instance, by
crumpling a piece of newspaper, placing it in the combustion chamber and lighting it. The draft conditions are
good if the smoke is drawn away through the chimney.
Tertiary air ports: six ports at the rear of the
combustion chamber provide fresh preheated air to
improve secondary combustion of gases
Door handle, pull out right away from re.
Wear protective glove when re is lit.
Ash pan: when lighting open primary air slider (behind
handle on ash pan) and pull open the ash pan by 1cm.
Secondary air: the air slider is placed below the ash
pan. Pull out for more air and push in to reduce air.
Once warm your stove will be controlled only from
this valve.

CONTROLS on WESTFIRE UNIQ 26,27 & 28 Door operation
When opening the door of your Westre stove always wear the glove that is provided to protect your hand from
possible heat. The handle pulls out right away from the re. When shutting the door push the door closed and
push the handle until the handle rmly closes.
WOOD FUEL
IMPORTANT: Never use toxic wood such as chipboard, impregnated or painted wood.
Good quality wood is the most important factor in your stove working eciently and cleanly. Always use dry
rewood. The dryness of the rewood plays an important role since the use of wet wood results in poor fuel
economy and may cause a tarry sooty lm on the internals of the stove.
Newly cut wood contains 60–70% water, making it totally unsuitable for use as rewood.
Newly cut wood should be stacked and air dried under cover for two years before being used as rewood.
SOLID SMOKELESS FUELS – Westre stoves are only CE/EN tested and approved for wood. It is possible,
however, to use other types of fuel with due care. When using coal/smokeless fuel you must use a coal insert and
a mix of 80% wood, 20% coal. Please note coal reduces the lifetime of the stove and the chimney considerably.
PETROLEUM COKE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE ON THIS STOVE; ITS USE
WILL INVALIDATE THE GUARANTEE
Overnight burning
Westre stoves are wood stoves, wood burns more eciently and cleanly if is burnt hotter. Westre do not
recommend that their stoves are burnt overnight for this reason.
As a night time regime we recommend that the re is loaded when hot and burnt for ve minutes with the
secondary air valve fully open until the new wood has taken and is burning, then close the secondary air valve to
its operational position.
On returning to the stove in the morning the re will have burn out, reload with some paper or relighter and
some kindling and open all the values fully open and the stove will relight quickly. Beware as the ash bed will
have hot embers.
Use of operating tools
Always use the operating tools provided when handling parts likely to be hot when the stove is in use.
Maintenance
Westre UNIQ26,27, & 28 wood stove needs to have the ash removed from the stove at regular intervals. Make
sure the stove is completely cold before cleaning out ash (embers can remain hot for over 24 hours).
To clean the outside of the stove use a dry cloth.
You must purchase a smoke control version of the Westre stove which is modied slightly to comply with
regulations. Any change to this modication will invalidate the stoves compliance for smoke control areas.
The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas
Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the whole or part of the district of the authority to be a
smoke control area. It is an oence to emit smoke from a chimney of a building, from a furnace or from any xed
boiler if located in a designated smoke control area. It is also an oence to acquire an “unauthorised fuel” for use
within a smoke control area unless it is used in an “exempt” appliance (“exempted” from the controls which
generally apply in the smoke control area).
In England appliances are exempted by publication on a list by the Secretary of State in accordance with changes
made to sections 20 and 21 of the Clean Air Act 1993 by section 15 of the Deregulation Act 2015. In Scotland
appliances are exempted by publication on a list by Scottish Ministers under section 50 of the Regulatory Reform
(Scotland) Act 2014. Similarly, In Northern Ireland appliances are exempted by publication on a list by the
Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Aairs under Section 16 of the Environmental Better regulation
Act (Northern Ireland) 2016. In Wales appliances are exempted by regulations made by Welsh Ministers.

https://www.gov.uk/smoke-control-area-rules
Your local authority is responsible for implementing the Clean Air Act 1993 including designation and supervision
of smoke control areas and you can contact them for details of Clean Air Act requirements.
The WESTFIREUNIQ 26,27 & 28 SEstoves have been recommended as suitable for use in smoke control areas
when burning wood logs. The appliances have been tted with a modication to x the air controls at 44% open
(20 mm from closed) for WESTFIREUNIQ 26,27 & 28 model in its minimum position.
Only specic SE models are suitable for smoke control areas, alterations should not be attempted.
Westre smoke control stoves should not be burnt with the door left open.
The refuelling procedure : - allow the newly charged fuel to burn with the secondary air control set at maximum
for up 3 to 4 minutes. After this period, with ames from the logs fully established, close the secondary air supply
to the low output setting. When operating at high output (secondary air set fully open) the new refuel charge
does not require any boost air to establish combustion.
RE-FUELLING WHEN BURNING WOOD BURNING WOOD IN A SMOKE CONTROL AREA
To re-fuel your stove in the cleanest way only refuel your stove when ames have died down and you have
glowing embers. Before refuelling, open air controls fully and slide. Unlatch door to equalise pressure with the
room. Open door gently, add one piece of wood WESTFIRE UNIQ 26,27 & 28 and close the door. Once the ames
from the logs are fully established move air control to nominal position. The stove is only suitable for intermittent
use only: do not run overnight or for long periods unattended.
Experience will determine the settings that produce best results. Use a ue thermostat to check the stove is not
overheating. Flue thermostats should be placed directly above collar of the stove on a non insulated section of
pipe. (ecient operating temperature range is between 200c and 400c?)
SE MODELS – smoke exemption modication
Smoke exempt models are factory tted with a air stop on the air control slider:
SMOKELESS COAL, HOUSE COAL AND PETROLEUM COKE ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR USE ON THIS
STOVE; ITS USE WILL INVALIDATE THE GUARANTEE
SOLID SMOKELESS FUELS – WESTFIRE UNIQ 26,27 & 28 models are NOT suitable for use with
smokeless fuels and have not been tested to the relevant European standard. Only use wood for these stoves.
Refuelling on to a low re bed
If there is insucient burning material in the re bed to light a new fuel charge, excessive smoke emission can
occur. Refuelling must be carried out onto a sucient quantity of glowing embers and ash that the new fuel
charge will ignite in a reasonable period. If there are too few embers in the re bed, add suitable kindling to
prevent excessive smoke.
Operation with door left open
Operation with the door open can cause excess smoke. The appliance must not be operated with the appliance
door left open except as directed in the instructions.
Dampers left open
Operation with the air controls or appliance dampers open can cause excess smoke. The appliance must not be
operated with air controls, appliance dampers or door left open except as directed in the instructions.
Fuel Overloading
The maximum amount of fuel specied in this manual should not be exceeded, overloading can cause excess smoke.

Annual service
The inside of the stove should be serviced /cleaned once a year. To clean the inside, remove all ash, soot and tar
residue from the combustion chamber. Remove insulated chamber panels and bae, dirt and soot will collect
behind it and this must be cleaned out. Insulated panels may crack if hit too hard by a piece of rewood. This has
no eect on the function of the stove (this is not the case with the smoke plate). The Insulated panels will only
need to be replaced once they become very worn and are no longer whole, or if they crack in several places,
replace stove door rope cord in the door. Check glass is correctly positioned, replace stove door rope cord in the
door. Check glass is correctly positioned.
The stove, the ue pipe connection and the chimney should be checked regularly by a qualied engineer. The
chimney should also be checked for blockages before relighting the stove if it has not been used for an extended
period of time.
The paint/ lacquer can wear thin in exposed places due to overheating. This, and other lacquer damage, may be
repaired using a Westre Senotherm paint/lacquer spray available from your Westre dealer.
Ash must be stored in a non-combustible container and must not be mixed with other combustible waste.

Chimney Fires
If the chimney is thoroughly and regularly swept, chimney res should not occur. However, if a chimney re does
occur turn the air control setting to the minimum, and tightly close the doors of the stove. This should cause the
chimney re to go out in which case the control should be kept at the minimum setting until the re in the stove
has gone out. The chimney and ueways should then be cleaned. If the chimney re does not go out when the
above action is taken then the re brigade should be called immediately.
After a chimney re the chimney should be carefully examined for any damage. Expert advice should be sought if
necessary.
Permanent air vent
The stove requires a permanent and adequate air supply in order for it to operate safely and eciently.
In accordance with current Building Regulations the installer may have tted a permanent air supply vent into the
room in which the stove is installed to provide combustion air. This air vent should not under any circumstances
be shut o or sealed.
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
(b) Let the re out or eject and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance
(c) Check for ue or chimney blockage and clean if required
(d) Do not attempt to relight the re until the cause of the fume emission has been identied and corrected. If
necessary seek expert advice.
The most common cause of fume emission is ueway or chimney blockage. For your own safety these must be
kept clean at all times.
IMPORTANT NOTES General
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
have shown you how to operate the stove correctly.
Use of reguard
When using the stove in situations where children, aged and/or inrm persons are present a reguard must be used
to prevent accidental contact with the stove. The reguard should be manufactured in accordance with BS6539.
Chimney cleaning
The chimney should be swept at least once a year for smokeless fuels and a minimum of twice a year for wood
and other fuels. It is important that the ue connection and chimney are swept prior to lighting up after a pro-
longed shutdown period.
If the stove is tted in place of an open re then the chimney should be swept one month after installation to clear
any soot falls which may have occurred due to the dierence in combustion between the stove and the open re. In
situations where it is not possible to sweep through the stove the installer will have provided alternative means,
such as a soot door. After sweeping the chimney the stove ue outlet and the ue pipe connecting the stove to
the chimney must be cleaned with a ue brush.
