If this room heater is not properly installed, a house fire may result. To reduce this risk, follow the installation instructions. Contact local building
or fire officials about restrictions and installation inspection requirements in your area.
The appliance must be connected to the chimney by a short pipe. There is often a tendency to install stoves with long pipes in the hope that
these will act as heat collectors from the smoke. The stoves themselves fulfill this role and the small amount of heat retained in the smoke is
essential to the draught.
The spigot is fitted on the back of the appliance. It is possible to connect the stove direct to the chimney using a short horizontal length of pipe
(Fig.3)
It is also possible to make a vertical connection to the back of the stove using the cast iron tee (Fig.4)
The chimney connector shall not pass through an attic or roof space, closet or similar concealed space, or a floor, or ceiling. Where passage
through a wall, or partition of combustible construction is desired, the installation shall conform to local jurisdictions having authorities in area of
installation.
The connecting pipe must be solidly attached and air tight. In the case of connection to the register of a chimney, use a pipe cut slantwise with
the
opening turned downwards.
- IMPORTANT NOTE
If the floor consists of combustible material, it must be protected by a raised
plate providing 40 cm (16 inches) clearance in front of the stove
and 20 cm (8 inches) clearance side and back of the stove.
The plate must act as heat shield and be absolutely non-combustible.
Use 153 mm (6 in.) stove pipe which should be enamelled, to provide
protection from corrosion.
The run of stove pipe should be as short as possible in order that heat
retained by the flue gases is used to establish a good draught.
The rear wall must not be of flamable materials.
In the opposite case, it should be suitably protected.
HOT WHILE IN OPERATION. KEEP CHILDREN,
CLOTHING AND FURNITURE AWAY.
CONTACT MAY CAUSE SKIN BURNS.
Testing the appliance : a coating of grease protects some internal parts against rust and at first lighting their heating may release a little smell
which is normal and transitory. When the appliance has been suitably installed and connected to the smoke duct it should be operated with a
low fire for several hours. Sudden contact with a brisk fire can cause damage.
When an appliance is lit which is connected to a cold chimney which has not been used for some time, there may be difficulties with the draught.
The conclusion should not be drawn prematurely that the appliance or the smoke duct is defective but rather wait at least a day for confirmation.
