FLUE SYSTEMS
PRE-INSTALLATION CHECK
Before installing the cooker, check that the chimney
is  clean  and  clear  of  obstructions.  Cracked
brickwork and leaking joints should be made good.
You  must  reassure  yourself  (with  the  benefit  of
professional advice)  that the brickwork and system
generally is of the standard  suitable to  support  the
cooker in a safe and efficient manner.
Where  flue  piping  passes  through  a  closure  plate
with a sliding door, ensure that the pipe continues up
and is ultimately connected to the flue liner and well
sealed with fire cement.
Do not connect to a flue serving another appliance.
Always ensure that the connection is to a chimney of
the  same  size  -  never  connect  to  one  of  smaller
dimensions. Flues wholly constructed of single skin
pipe  are  not  recommended  under  any
circumstances.  Due  to  their  inability  to  retain  heat
such flues will inevitably give rise to the formation of
condensation.
IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO CONNECT TO A
FLUE  SMALLER  THAN  150mm  (6”)  OR  IN
EXCESS OF 175mm (7”) DIAMETER.

Note:
Fill voids and area around liner with vermiculite or a
comparable approved material. (See Fig. 8)

CHIMNEY
Generally the most effective chimney for oil is one
that  is  straight,  avoid  offsets  and  terminate  with  a
straight sided pot.
Where  the  flue  passes  through  a  combustible
material, a twin wall solid packed insulated chimney
connector must be used and must come flush with
the outer surface of the material and run all the way
to the masonry chimney or to the point of termination
of the factory made chimney.  (See Fig.6)
(You should discuss the installation of your Stanley
cooker with your builder in this regard in the case of
a newly fitted kitchen.
When  installing  a  non  combustible  worktop,  it  is
necessary  to  allow  adequate  clearance  for  the
removal of the hob.
