Yourstovemustbeinstalledonasolid,levelnon‐combustiblehearthandwithagapofatleast
600mmfromanycombustiblematerialsuchasbeamsorskirting.Thehearthdoesnotneedtobe
constructionalbutmustbeatleast12mmthick.Thehearthprotrusioninfrontof
thestoveto
carpetsorwoodenfloorsmustbeatleast300mm.Asitispossibleforfueltofalloutonopeningthe
door,afendermustbefittedifthehearthisflushwiththecarpet.Thesearejustafewhearth
specifications.PleaserefertoBuildingRegulations
ApprovedDocumentJ(Hearths)formorespecific
details.
Theapplianceshouldbesitedinaproperlyconstructedbrickfireplaceorrecessallowingagapof
100mmallround,attherearandbothsides.Thefireplacewallsmustbemadeofsolidnon
combustiblematerialandatleast75mmthick.It
ispossibletoreducetheallroundclearanceto
75mmbutthiswillreducetheabilityoftheappliancetoheattheroomandcouldleadtooverfiring
ofthestoveandstructuraldamagetothesurround.Ifthisreducedairgapisunavoidableitwillbe
necessaryto
increasethethicknessofthesurroundingwallto200mm.Iftheairgaparoundthe
applianceisreducedto75mm,thenincreasethegapaboveto375mmtoallowtheairtomoveinto
theroom.Thehearthshouldbelevelandtheappliancefittedatrightanglestoit.Fireplace
walls
needtobeatleast1.2mabovethehearthandatleast300mmabovetheappliance.Thehearthhas
tobeabletosupporttheweightoftheapplianceandanyfluebearingdownuponit.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RegulationsApprovedDocumentJandalsointhesestoveinstructions.
