Installing the Appliance
Check that the chimney and flue structure are sound and conform to the following flue requirements.
a) A conventional brick or stone chimney with a minimum effective cross sectional dimension of 225 x 225mm. A lined
flue with a minimum diameter of 175mm having a chairbrick and throat forming lintel conforming to BS 1251 or a
builders opening (constructed of non-combustible material) measuring 540mm high x 400mm wide with a sufficient
depth for debris collection. If a chairbrick is fitted, a minimum depth requirement for the fire with the spacer frame fitted
is shown in Fig 1, if a spacer frame is not used, the chairbrick will have to be removed.
b) A twin walled metal flue box manufactured to BS 715 with a twin walled 125mm diameter flue and a minimum
effective height of 5 metres. See page 12.
c) A pre-cast flue conforming to the requirements of BS 1289 Pt. 1 1986 and BS 1289 l975 including properly constructed
pre-cast flues with a cross sectional area of 13000sq mm.
Important
Dampers, register plates or incorrect flue terminals, must not restrict the above listed flues. The flue must only service a
single appliance and not have any branches or traps that may impede the natural draught. Any flue damper plate or
restrictor shall be removed or fixed in the fully opened position.
The front and base of the fire opening must be flat and square to ensure a good seal with the appliance; this is to ensure
that there is no reduction in draught through the fire that may cause spillage to occur.
