1856-2.
If the product is being installed into a builders opening the chimney must be at least 3 metres in height and
should be swept before installaon if it has been used for the burning of solid fuel (e.g. coal or wood). The
chimney must only serve as a ue-way to this appliance and must have no openings to any other room. The
opening should be inspected and any exposed brickwork should be repaired where necessary. The chair-
brick (if applicable) should be removed unless the minimum depth of the replace exceeds 175mm. If the
depth is less than 175mm then the chair brick MUST be removed.
If the product is being installed into a fabricated Flue-box it must be installed onto a non-combusble
surface with a thickness of at least 12mm.
This replace is also suitable for installaon into precast ue replaces which comply to the requirements
of BS EN1858. It is important to note that pre-cast ue systems should be constructed with an air gap or
some form of insulaon material between the ue block and the plastered face; pre-cast ue systems with
a plastered face directly in contact with the ue block are not correctly installed and installaon of this
appliance into such a ue system may result in the plaster cracking above the appliance. Flue-way must be
through a Class I (7” or 175mm diameter) or Class II (5” or 125mm diameter) ue of at least three meters in
height.
The ue should be checked for draw using a smoke bomb or similar, if there is a denite draw then the
installaon of the appliance can proceed.
