FLUE DRAUGHT

Note: The chimney/flue to which this appliance is being connected must be swept and

examined for soundness prior to installation. Remedial action should be taken if required,

seeking expert advice if necessary. Where the chimney is believed to have served an open

fire installation it is possible that a higher flue gas temperature from a closed appliance

may loosen deposits that were firmly adhered, with the consequent risk of flue blockage.

It is therefore recommended that the chimney be swept a second time within a month

of regular use after installation.

Note: This test is only a guide as an apparently poor flue may improve once the appliance

is installed, lit and the flue is warmed. Once the appliance is installed a flue draught reading

should be taken.

The chimney can be checked before the appliance is installed with a smoke match.

If the chimney doesn’t pull the smoke, it may suggest the chimney needs attention.

Flue Draught Readings

Two flue draught readings should be taken, one with the appliance at minimum burning rate

and one at maximum burning rate. The flue draught test hole must be drilled in the flue pipe

as close to the appliance as possible and before any flue draught stabiliser.

Minimum reading: The appliance should be lit and allowed to warm the flue thoroughly.

Close the air controls, and ensure firebox door is fully closed. Allow the burning rate to

become steady. The flue draught reading should now be taken; the minimum required is

12 Pascals [Pa] (0.05’’ w.g.).

Maximum reading: The air controls can now be opened to allow the appliance to burn at

maximum rate. Take a flue draught reading.

Ideally, the flue draught readings should range between 12Pa, 0.12mm (0.05’’ w.g.) and

24Pa, 2.5mm (0.1’’ w.g.). Any readings significantly outside this range may indicate the need

for remedial action. Low flue draught symptoms: difficult to light and smoke coming into the

room. High flue draught symptoms: fuel burns away very quickly, overfiring which may

damage the appliance & invalidate the warranty.

Flue Stabiliser

A flue stabiliser can be fitted to reduce the draught through the appliance if the draught is

too high. The flue stabiliser should be fitted in the same room as the appliance and be the

same size as the flue pipe. Consult building regulations regarding additional ventilation.

Positioning

The appliance should be sited on non-combustible material.

Placing the cooker

Do not use the towel rail as a lifting rail as damage will occur
