Hearth and Fireplace Requirements Do not be tempted to fit the stove into an unsuitable fireplace. Beyond the requirements of the building regulations and access to facilitate servicing the stove, providing a setting which will complement the stove is not a luxury, it is the practicality of making the most of an investment. A good builder will be able to transform even the most utilitarian of fireplaces, whether altering its proportions to those of the Golden Mean ideal, exposing a wooden lintel, stone or simply removing superfluous detailing for comparatively small costs, and the result will be a pleasure for many years.

In all installations any surrounding flammable materials must not be allowed to exceed 80 C or a non combustible shield provided in accordance with current regulations. The stove must always stand perfectly level and have sufficient space allowing for service work. EUROHEAT DISTRIBUTORS (H.B.S) LTD. 2

Balanced Flue Systems A balanced flue system utilizes a double concentric pipe, the inner one taking away the products of combustion and the outer one bringing the air supply to the stove. This system allows a gas stove to be installed where no flue exists, and because the flue needs very little vertical height to operate, it is often possible to route the flue through the room wall to the outside. With all the air necessary for combustion being supplied through the outer pipe directly from the outside, the room in which the stove is installed needs no ventilation specifically for the stove. The balanced flue system has been designed to give a huge range of installation options, terminating either horizontally or vertically, as illustrated in the diagram below. Deciding on which form the balanced flue should take will very much be constrained by the termination of the flue. Building Regulations lay out definitive guide lines for where a flue can terminate, see the diagram later in this document, and if the building is listed there may be constraints on the position of any terminal and advice should be sort from the appropriate regulatory authority.

No Chimney ----- No Problem This document will help you design and your qualified engineer install a suitable balanced flue system for your stove. Following the simple guide lines will allow a balanced flued stove to be fitted in most situations where a conventionally flued stove could not be fitted. Top to Horizontal High Level Flue Kit It is not necessary for the stove to be situated against the outside wall through which the flue will pass, as the versatility of the balanced flue system can allow for considerable lengths of horizontal run of the flue. Top to Vertical High Level Flue Kit The vertical balanced flue system is ideal in situations such as in a newly constructed conservatory where there are no walls through which to pass a horizontal flue. The flue will rise from the stove vertically passing through the roof where it will then terminate with a vertical terminal. Minimum height 2m maximum 30m. Rear to Horizontal Low Level The low level horizontal kit is probably the simplest method of installation and allows you to fit the stove against any suitable outside wall in any room in your property. Maximum horizontal length 440mm, minimum length 310mm. Existing Chimney Adapter Kit The flue kits are also designed to be able to utilize an existing chimney. Properties which are designed with a high thermal efficiency may not allow an air brick to be fitted to supply air to a stove over 7kW input, the balanced flue stove overcomes this requirement as it is a sealed appliance. In some cases the top section of a chimney may have been removed and the versatility of the balanced flue system allows you to use what remains of the chimney using the chimney adapter kit.

Calculating Flue Aspect Ratios The stove operates correctly only with air flow induced by the flue system being within the defined parameters. To achieve these, the vertical elements of the flue, which induce flue draught and increase the air supply to the stove, must be balanced against the horizontal elements of the flue, which offer resistance to flue draught and reduce the air supply to the stove. The ratio of vertical to horizontal lengths must be calculated to ensure the correct flue draught will be induced by the proposed flue. The difference in height between the top of the stove and the bottom of the terminal determines the vertical height to be used in the calculation. The flue run may necessitate the vertical elements to be separated by several horizontal runs, this is not important, only the total height gain is needed. The horizontal length is often more tedious to determine, but again, it is the total length which needs to be determined, regardless of their being continuous or in stages. Any 90 degree change of direction within the flue will offer resistance to flue draught and each change of direction will offer the same resistance to the flue draught as a horizontal run of 1000mm. For every 45 degree change in direction the resistance is that of a horizontal run of 500mm.

Example 2: Top to Horizontal High Level Kit Taking the attached diagram as an example we can calculate the flue parameters for a top to horizontal flue system. Total Height = A Total Horizontal = B In this example A = 2.8 Metres B = 1.75 Metres Three x 90 degree bends have been used one of which (C) is the standard supply kit bend. This bend is ignored from the calculation as it is presumed it will always be used. The two remaining 90 degree bends increase the horizontal length by two metres. (one metre extra horizontal length per additional 90 degree bend). Total Height A = 2.8 Metres Total Horizontal B = 1.0 Metres In this example there is sufficient vertical rise for the horizontal run, as shown in the graph on page 6.

Example 4: Top to Vertical High Level Kit This example incorporates two 45 degree bends, a situation commonly encountered when having to route flue pipe around an obstacle such as a beam. When calculating the horizontal run the 45 degree bends equate to an additional 500mm per bend. Taking the ratio diagram as an example we can calculate the flue parameters for a top to vertical flue system. Total Height = A Total Horizontal = B In this example A = 4.5 Metres B = 1.5 Metres 2 x 45deg bends have been used. The two 45 degree bends increase the horizontal length by one metre. (500mm extra horizontal length per 45 degree bend).

Example 7: Existing Chimney Adapter Kit Vertical Termination Fitting an Existing Chimney Adapter Kit in Conjunction with a High Level Vertical Kit There are great advantages in converting an existing chimney into a balanced flue. The existing chimney adapter kit can convert either ceramic lined chimneys or an unlined chimney into a balanced flue system. By using this system combustion air is drawn from the outside rather than from the property greatly increasing overall efficiency. In addittion many houses chimney stacks have been removed and the roof tiled over. They are usually capped off at attic floor level. We have developed a kit which can bring these chimneys back to life using a gas balanced flue stove. It can also be used in modern properties which have heat replacement systems where normal ventilation requirements cannot be applied. The system requires the use of two flexible flue liners, one to run inside the other mimicking the standard balanced flue pipe. The inside pipe is for the evacuation of the products of combustion and the outer is the air supply for combustion. It is imperative that all the joints are sealed to make them air tight. There follows two examples of the system, one is showing an existing chimney breast and the system terminating in a vertical position (through the roof). The second is showing the system terminating in a horizontal position (through a gable end of a property perhaps).

It can go through the long 90 bend (in the top to horizontal kit) and terminate through the gable end of the property. EUROHEAT DISTRIBUTORS (H.B.S) LTD. 15

Example 9: Through a Combustible Roof Installation of Top to Vertical High Level Balanced Flue Pipe Through a Combustible Roof A 25mm gap of non combustible material must be used when you are passing the balanced flue pipe through any combustible material. Conservatories can come alive with the installation of a stove, but care should be taken when installing a stove into a conservatory because the modern ones can be made entirely from plastic (or PVC). Advise from your conservatory installer/manufacturer should be sought. The flue system should be supported. 600mm 600mm 600mm EUROHEAT DISTRIBUTORS (H.B.S) LTD. 16

Frequently Asked Questions Q. Can the stove be flued directly off the back? A. Yes, using the standard low level horizontal kit. Q. Can I use a bend directly off the top of the stove? A. No, the stove adapter is only designed to fit the telescopic starter length and straight lengths, bends will not seal to the flue outlet. Q. Can I fit the stove in the corner of a room? A. Yes, there is no problem in doing this using the top to horizontal flue kit, but it must be remembered that if the corner is also the corner of the property that the termination must be 600mm from any corner. See diagram page 5. Q. Can the vertical flue be passed through a combustible roof, such as a polycarbonate roof in a conservatory? A. Yes, as long as allowances are made for the type of roofing material and suitable insulation is provided. See the section on flueing through a combustible roof. Q. Can the stove be fitted into a bedroom? A. Yes, the stoves are room sealed and below 14kW input. Q. Can I cut the lengths of flue pipe? A. Yes, however the differential between the inner and outer length has to be maintained. It would be preferable to use an adjustable length Q. Does the flue terminal need to be guarded? A. If the flue terminal is to be sited less than two meters above level ground, a balcony or a flat roof where people have access, a guard must be fitted. Local by-laws may also require a further minimum height where the terminal is sited adjoining a public footpath. Q. If I have a high level horizontal kit can I then terminate it vertically? A. Yes, there is a vertical terminal with a crimped end which will fit to the flue system. Q. Do I need an air brick or other ventilation for supplying free air to the stove? A. No, the stove is room sealed and does not have any requirement for free air. Vertical terminal with crimped end Size Part No: 150mm MS91047 180MM MS91048 Q. Does it matter how far out of the wall the terminal is fitted on a horizontal flue kit? A. Yes, there should be 12mm of flue pipe visible before the start of the flue terminal. Any greater length can upset the balanced flues operation. Q. What colours are the flue pipe available in? A. The flue pipe is supplied in one colour, a matt grey finish, which closely matches the cast finished stoves and complements the enamel finished stove. It is possible to change the colour using heat resistant paint. Q. To what wind speed are the terminals tested to? A. The maximum wind used is 12.5 m/s with 10% error. (28mph). Q. What is the maximum length the flue can travel horizontaly from the rear outlet of the stove? A. The standard low level horizontal flue kit gives a maximum extension of 440mm. No additional lengths or bends should be fitted. EUROHEAT DISTRIBUTORS (H.B.S) LTD. 17

Fitting High Level Horizontal Flue Kit The flue system starter length should be sealed to the stove s flue spigot with a heat proof sealant, (we suggest fraxfill, part number MS9045). Apply a bead of heat resistant sealant to the inner face of the outer flue spigot and the outer face of the inner flue pipe. The clamp should be used to secure the first elbow or additional length and the appropriate heat proof tape used to secure the telescopic fitting. Heat proof sealant Heat proof sealant The guide giving the permitted flue configurations must be consulted to verify that a proposed flue is possible. The long 90 bend supplied as standard with the stove must be incorporated into the system to ensure a non crimped end at the last fitting before the termination length T2. Where the flue passes through a cavity wall, the hole must be sleeved for its entire length. Standard kit 90 long bend Standard kit 90 long bend Accessory 90 short bend Accessory 90 short bend Wall band Locking band All joints between the fixed lengths of flue must be secured with locking bands, and every meter in length horizontally or vertically must be supported.

Position of Flue Terminal on Outside Wall 12mm The position of the terminal on the outside wall should be 12mm from the edge of the terminal mesh to the face of the outside wall. If it protrudes further than 12mm it may be adversely affected by wind blowing across the terminal so upsetting the balanced flue operation. If it is fitted with less than 12mm clearance then the vented exhaust gases may be drawn back into the balanced flue primary air inlet so adversely effecting the operation of the balanced flue. The flue pipe passing through the wall should be angled slightly downwards (1 degree) towards the terminal so as to stop rain water entering and passing along the flue. 1 incline Horizontal Flue Passing Through a Combustible or Cavity Wall Ceramic rope or Fraxfill sealant to prevent draughts Sleeve liner 12mm 25mm air gap incorporated as part of the Flue System T2 Ceramic rope or Fraxfill sealant to prevent draughts T1 Seal the bezel part of sleeve liner to the outer face of the wall using a suitable sealant 50mm minimum Sleeve liner EUROHEAT DISTRIBUTORS (H.B.S) LTD. 28

Fitting the High Level Vertical Flue Kit The flue system starter length should be sealed to the stove s flue spigot with a heat proof sealant,(we suggest fraxfill, part number MS9045). Apply a bead of heat resistant sealant to the inner face of the outer flue spigot and the outer face of the inner flue pipe. The clamp should be used to secure the first elbow or additional length and the appropriate heat proof tape used to secure the telescopic fitting. Heat proof sealant Heat proof sealant The vertical terminal will only fit the male end of the flue pipe. Accessory 90 short bend Accessory 90 short bend Wall bands should be fitted to support the flue pipe. The telescopic starter length must be used so that the male end of the flue pipe connects to the vertical flue terminal. All joints between the fixed lengths of flue must be secured with locking bands, and every meter in length horizontally or vertically must be supported. It is your responsibility to ensure that no part of the flue installation contravenes any gas or building regulations. EUROHEAT DISTRIBUTORS (H.B.S) LTD. 29

Fitting the Low Level Horizontal Flue Kit The horizontal flue kit starter length should be secured by means of a self tapping screw. If it is to pass through a cavity wall then a sleeve liner (150mm part No. MS91065. 180mm part No. MS91066) should be fitted. The terminal section should be fitted with the snorkel pointing upwards and the wind shield to protect the terminal outlet. Only the standard kit may be used from the rear flue outlet. Secure starter length with a self tapping screw Flue should be sleeved if passing through a cavity wall Sleeve kit 150mm part No. MS91065 180mm part No. MS91066 Terminal snorkle The terminal length should be fitted with the snorkle pointing upwards. Apply a bead of heat resistant sealant (we suggest fraxfill, part number MS9045) to the inner face of the outer flue spigot and the outer face of the inner flue pipe. Wind Shield The wind shield should be fitted using the spacers so that it baffles the top holes in the horizontal terminal to protect it from the effects of the wind. The top holes are pre-drilled into the terminal however in some cases the lower holes may need to be drilled to complete the installation. Fitting of Flue Spigot to Rear of the Stove Remove the inner and outer spigot from the top of the stove. Remove the rear blanking plate and fit the inner and outer spigots and the flue reduction plate (FRP) if required, see pages 23 and 24, to the rear of the stove. Fit the blanking plate onto the top plate. EUROHEAT DISTRIBUTORS (H.B.S) LTD. 30

Glossary of Terms Term Top to horizontal high level Top to vertical high level Low level horizontal T1 T2 FRP Sleeve liner Outlet Terminal Wall band Locking band Closure bezel Terminal guard Roof flashing Ceiling support Fire stop spacer Existing chimney adapter kit Terminal snorkle Wind guard Fraxfill (MS9045) Description The flue kit rises from the top of the stove, it includes a long sweeping 90 bend and terminates through the side wall of a property. The flue kit rises from the top of the stove and terminates vertically through a roof. The flue runs horizontally from the back of the stove and terminates through the side wall of a property. Telescopic starter length. The first section of the flue kit which can telescope into the section of flue to follow it. Top connection only. Telescopic terminal length. The last section of the top to horizontal flue kit which can telescope into the section of flue before it. Flue reduction plate. A choke plate fitted into the outlet of the stove to reduce the velocity of the flue gases. Telescopic sleeve, required when a flue passes through a combustible or cavity wall. Position of the flue terminal, which is governed by Building Regulations, see diagram on page 6. Fitted to the end of the flue system, supplied with the flue kits. Required to support every 1m in length vertically or horizontally of flue. Supplied in the kits and with every additional length of flue pipe to secure the joints between sections. The closure bezel fits around the flue pipe covering the hole through the wall and giving the installation a clean finish. A wire mesh guard required when the outlet is in a vulnerable position, such as where the flue discharges within reach of the ground (less than 2m), or a balcony, verandah or a opening window. Required when a vertical flue passes through a roof. A vulcanised rubber gaiter through which the flue pipe passes allowing a water tight seal to be made. A metal plate with locking band required when a flue passes through a ceiling. Fitting onto the floor above the ceiling through which it passes with a clamp to secure it to the flue pipe and support the weight of the flue. A metal plate which fits on the ceiling through which the stove passes which is required to conform to Building Regulations. The existing chimney adapter kit can convert either ceramic lined chimneys or an unlined chimney into a balanced flue system. By using this system combustion air is drawn from the outside rather than from within the property. The upturned inner pipe within the low level horizontal flue kit, that when fitted should be pointing upwards. This fits on the outside of the low level horizontal terminal, standing away from the body of the terminal guard, with spacers, so protecting the top holes of the terminal from the effects of wind blowing directly on them. Fraxfill is a pliable (tacky putty) white ceramic fibre gap fill supplied in a 300g cartridge for use with a sealant gun. Fraxfill is recommended for applications with operating temperatures of up to 1200 C. EUROHEAT DISTRIBUTORS (H.B.S) LTD. 31
