INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

CHIMNEY

In order for the appliance to perform satisfactorily the chimney

height must not be less than 4 metres measured vertically from the

outlet of the stove to the top of the chimney. The internal dimensions

of the chimney should preferably be 150-200 mm (6”- 8”) either

square or round and MUST NOT BE LESS THAN 125 mm (5”) -

Skye 5 or 150 mm (6”) - Skye 7.

If an existing chimney is to be used it must be swept and checked,

it must be in good condition, free from cracks and blockages, and

should not have an excessive cross sectional area. If it was previously

used by an open fire then the chimney should be swept one month

after installation to clear any soot falls which may have occurred due

to the difference in combustion between the stove and the open fire.

If you find that the chimney is in poor condition then expert advice

should be sought regarding the necessity of having the chimney lined.

If it is found necessary to line the chimney then a lining suitable for

Solid Fuel must be used.

If there is no existing chimney then a prefabricated block chimney

or a twin walled insulated stainless steel flue to BSEN 15287-1:2007

can be used either internally or externally. These chimneys must be

fitted in accordance with the manufacturers instructions and Building

Regulations.

Single wall flue pipe is suitable for connecting the stove to the chimney

but is not suitable for using for the complete chimney. If it is found

that there is excessive draw in the chimney then a draught stabiliser

should be fitted.

It is important that there is sufficient draw in the chimney and that the

chimney does not suffer from down-draught. When the chimney is

warm the draw should be not less than 1.25mm (0.05”) water gauge

(12 Pa). If in doubt about the chimney seek expert advice.

HEARTH AND FIRE SURROUND

The stove must stand on a fireproof hearth and must not be situated

closer than the minimum distance from combustible materials (see

specification table) to the sides or rear above hearth level unless

adequately fireproofed in accordance with local building regulations.

The hearth must be of fireproof material and at least 12mm (1/2in.)

thick. The positioning of the stove and the size of the hearth are

governed by building regulations for Class 1 appliances. These

building regulations state that the hearth must extend in front of the

stove by at least 225mm (9 in.) and to the sides of the stove by at

least 150mm (6 in.). When the fire door is open, it extends beyond

the flat front of the stove by 430mm - Skye 5 or 480mm - Skye 7.

If in doubt as to the positioning of the stove, expert advice should be

sought either from the supplier or the local building inspector. The

fireplace must allow good circulation of air around the appliance to

ensure that maximum heat is transferred to the room and also to

prevent the fireplace from overheating. A gap of 150mm (6”) each

side and 300mm (12”) above the appliance should give sufficient air

circulation. If a wooden mantelpiece or beam is used in the fireplace

it should be a minimum of 460mm (18”), and preferably 600mm

(24”) from the appliance. In some situations it may be necessary to

shield the beam or mantelpiece to protect it.

In order for the fire to operate correctly and to allow for access,

there must be an air gap behind the appliance of at least 50mm, but

be aware that this distance will need to be greater in some cases to

meet Building Regulation requirements.

The appliance should be installed on a floor with adequate load-

bearing capacity. If an existing construction does not meet this

requirement then please take suitable measures to achieve this. (e.g.

load distributing plate.)

CONNECTIONS TO FLUES

The stove must be connected to the flue using flue pipe of the

following sizes:

125mm (5”) diameter - Skye 5. 150mm (6”) diameter - Skye 7.

This may be stainless steel, cast iron, or thick wall steel pipe. Straight

lengths of Charnwood Pipe to match the stove are available if

required. If using twin wall flue, the flue spigot must be shielded

to protect exposed combustible material. This can be done with a

shielded starter length of flue.

There are several ways of connecting the stove to the flue. These are

illustrated in Figs. 7 to 10.

If the top flue connection or optional vertical rear flue connector is

used then the chimney may be swept through the appliance.

A spacer (part 77, pages 20-21) is required to attach the optional

vertical rear flue connector to the Skye 7.

Horizontal lengths of flue must be kept to a minimum and should not

be more in length than the flue diameter.

The stove comes with the blanking plate (fig. 11) fitted to the top
