FLUE & CHIMNEY REQUIREMENTS
NOTE: Only flue approved by Waterford
Stanley for this appliance may be
used.
When installing the flue system the following must
be adhered to:
1. Flue terminals should be sited to ensure total
clearance of combustion products in
accordance with BS5440: Part 1 (latest
edition) - see Fig 6.
2. A terminal guard should be fitted to protect
against contact for any terminal less than 2
metres above any access from ground level,
balcony or flat roof.
3. The flue system must be constructed from
the appliance upwards, with all joints being
fully locked and sealed using the Waterford
Stanley specified parts.
4. Depending on the flue height, a restrictor
plate may need to be fitted to the inner
spigot (see Fig 5). The following details
when a restrictor plate needs to be fitted:
GAS SOUNDNESS TESTING
Gas soundness testing should be in accordance
with I.S. 813 (I.E.) and B.S. 6891 (U.K.). Correct gas
pressure and proper gas supply pipe sizing is impor-
tant for the successful performance of this stove.
Make sure that the plumber or gas supplier checks
the gas supply line and gas pressure at installation.
CAUTION: The stove must be isolated from gas
supply system during any gas soundness testing at
pressures in excess of 50 mbar
.
After testing gas supply pipe work, open the isolation
valve to the stove and carry out gas soundness test-
ing at normal working pressure 20 mbar for natural
gas and 37 mbar for LPG models. With the stove
lighting carry out a leak test downstream of control
using gas leak detection fluid.
CAUTION: If using a gas leak detection fluid for
leak testing DO NOT spray solution onto the control
body.
WARNING: Before connecting the stove make sure
the gas supply pipe is clear of grit and debris as this
will cause blockage within the stove control, pilot
burner, injectors and pipework. Failure to do so
may void product warranty.
WARNING: Only connect to gas type indicated on
the rating plate.
FLOOR PROTECTION
It is recommended that the appliance is installed on
a solid, level, concrete base of non combustible
hearth conforming to the current Building
Regulations and must extend 100mm in front of the
appliance, 200mm to the sides and 100mm from the
rear.
GAS PIPES & FITTINGS
Materials used for installation work should be fire
resistant and gas tight and should conform to the fol-
lowing or their equivalent.
* I.S. 238, I.S. 239 and prEN 1057 - Copper
tubes.
* I.S. 265 - Installation of gas service pipes.
* I.S. 266 - Polyethylene pipes.
* EN 29453 & I.S.O. 9453 - Soft Solders.
* B.S. 669 - flexible hoses, fittings & sockets.
* B.S. 759 - valves, gauges and other safety
equipment.
* B.S. 1387 - Steel tubes.
* B.S. 6362 - stainless steel tubes.
* B.S. 1740 - Wrought steel pipes.
* B.S. 4089 - L.P.G. hoses and assemblies.
METERS
A suitable gas meter must be connected to the ser-
vice pipe either by a representative of the gas board
or by an appointed contractor. If using an existing
meter have it checked to ensure that the meter is
capable of dealing with the total rate of gas needed
GAS PIPE SIZE
It is important that the correct service pipe size be
used for adequate gas supply. This depends on the
distance between the supply meter and the appli-
ance relative to the input requirements. The gas
supply to the appliance should be terminated near
the appliance with an approved safety type service
tap.
GAS CONNECTION
The stove has a ø8mm gas inlet connection located
underneath the underside of the burner as shown in
Fig 15. The stove is designed to accommodate the
routing of the gas feed pipe up through the back of
the stove.
Note: An isolation tap must be fitted outside of
the stove and positioned to allow for ease
of access when required.
