Before connecting this appliance to a chimney or
flue pipe which has previously been used with
another fuel, the chimney or flue pipe must be thor-
oughly swept and/or lined accordingly.
All register plates, restrictor plates and dampers etc.
which could obstruct the flue at a future date must
be removed before connecting this appliance.
The combustion products from this appliance will
have a descaling effect on hardened soot deposits
left from burning solid fuels.
ALTHOUGH THE CHIMNEY MAY HAVE BEEN
CLEANED OF LOOSE SOOT PRIOR TO INSTAL-
LATION, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THE CHIMNEY
IS INSPECTED FOR SCALED SOOT PARTICLES
AFTER THE FIRST MONTH OF OPERATION AND
ANY LOOSE MATERIALS REMOVED TO AVOID
BLOCKAGE.
LOCATION
There are several conditions to be considered in
selecting a location for your Waterford Stanley Solid
Fuel Range.
a. Position in the area to be heated - central
locations are usually best.
b. Allowances for proper clearances to com-
bustibles.
FLOOR PROTECTION
When installing the Waterford Stanley Solid Fuel
Range on a combustible floor, a floor protector con-
sisting of a layer of non-combustible material at least
3/8” (9mm) thick, or of at least 1/4” (6mm) thick cov-
ered with a 1/8” (3mm) sheet of metal is required to
cover the area under the heater and to extend to at
least 18” (460mm) at the front and 8” (200mm) to the
sides and back of stove. This will provide protection
from sparks and embers which may fall out from the
door when stoking or refuelling.
(c) Stainless steel with a wall thickness of
at least 1mm and as described in BS
EN 10095:1999 specification for
stainless and heat resisting steel plate,
sheet and strip, for grade 316 S11, 316
S13, 316 S16, 316 S31, 316 S33, or the
equivalent Euronorm 88-77 designation.
(d) Vitreous enamelled steel complying with
BS 6999: 1989.
FLUE CLEANING
The flue pipe must be fitted with a cleaning pipe.
The flue must be inspected twice annually and
cleaned when necessary.
CHIMNEY
The Waterford Stanley Solid Fuel Range must be
connected to a Factory-Built Chimney, installed in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions or a
lined masonry chimney, acceptable to the authority
having jurisdiction. An existing masonry chimney
should be inspected and if necessary repaired by a
competent mason or be relined using an approved
relining system.
THE CHIMNEY SERVING THIS WATERFORD
STANLEY SOLID FUEL RANGE SHOULD NOT
SERVE ANY OTHER APPLIANCES. If you intend
to use a fireplace chimney, the fireplace opening
must be sealed. The overall height of the chimney,
measured from the floor on which the Range is
installed must be at least 4.572 meters (15ft). Do
not use more than two elbows.
Chimneys for use with solid fuel appliances should
be capable of withstanding a temperature of 1100
o
C
without any structural change which would impair
the stability or performance of the chimney.
USE OF EXISTING FLUES AND CHIMNEYS
When connecting to an existing chimney it is neces-
sary to line the flue using either 5” (125mm) rigid or
flexible stainless steel flue liner.
An existing flue pipe or chimney that has proved to
be satisfactory when used for solid fuel can normal-
ly be used for this appliance provided that its con-
struction, condition and dimensions are acceptable.
Flues that have proven to be unsatisfactory, particu-
larly with regard to down draught, must not be con-
sidered for venting this appliance until they have
been examined and any faults corrected. If there is
any doubt about an existing chimney, a smoke test
should be carried out.
