3. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Check a single wall flue pipe is permitted with State and local officials, regarding
the building code restrictions within your area. Clearance distances may only be
reduced by means approved by the regulatory authority.
FLUE DRAFT
An appropriate flue draft is essential, for the stove to work safely and efficiently.
When installed, and prior to commissioning, a flue draft reading should be taken,
to ensure the draft is appropriate. A flue inspection hatch should be installed
within the flue, to allow for a flue draft reading to be taken.
When both the cook stove and chimney are warm, a reading in a range between
1.25mm wg (12 Pa) and 2.5mm wg (25 Pa) should be expected. Any readings
significantly outside this range are likely to cause problems, so further
investigation should be undertaken so as to either reduce or increase the flue
draft reading, as appropriate.
COMMISSIONING
Once the installation has been completed, check the flue and chimney
connection is fully sealed, and complete a test lighting of the cook stove. Instruct
the owner on how to use the appliance, and complete the Commissioning
Checklist section of this manual. Finally, ensure that you leave this manual with
the owner, for their reference.
