In the republic of Ireland the installation must be carried out by a competent person
and also conform to the relevant parts of:
a) The current edition of IS 813 “Domestic Gas Installations”
b) All relevant national and local rules in force.
Where no specific instructions are given, reference should be made to the relevant
British Standard Code of Practice.
The Hearth.
The appliance must be mounted on a non-combustible hearth (N.B. conglomerate
marble hearths are considered as non-combustible). The hearth material must be at
least 12mm thick. The hearth must protrude at least 150mm (6”) in front of the stove
body. In most buildings with solid concrete floors this requirement will be met by the
floor itself.
Clearances.
Clearances from combustible and non- combustible materials must be at least those
shown in figure 6.
IMPORTANT: Reducing the clearance distance at the rear of the stove (especially
with non-combustible surfaces) can result in the stove switching off. This occurs when
the thermal switch operates due to insufficient cool air.
Flue / Chimney.
The stove is approved for use with 125mm (5 inch) diameter insulated flue.
Before you install the stove make sure the chimney flue outlet is correctly
positioned to align with the flue outlet on the stove and that the chimney is in good
condition. If not, a chimney liner must be installed or a suitable class 2 gas flue used.
A draught is necessary to ensure the products of combustion are fully evacuated.
