3. CO Alarms

All open flued appliances can be affected by temporary

atmospheric conditions which may allow fumes to enter

the house. Building regulations require that whenever

a new or replacement fixed solid fuel or wood/biomass

appliance is installed in a dwelling a carbon monoxide

alarm must be fitted in the same room as the appliance.

Further guidance on the installation of the carbon

monoxide alarm is available in the latest edition of

 BSEN50292andfromthealarmmanufacturer’s

instructions.

HETAS recommend the unit is permanently fixed

inaccordancewiththemanufacturer’sinstallation

instructions or with the guidance contained in Approved

Document J where no other information is available.

Provision of an alarm must not be considered a

substitute for either installing the appliance correctly

or ensuring regular servicing and maintenance of the

appliance and chimney system.

4. Minimum Dimensions - Hearth

4.1 If the appliance instructions specify a non-combustible

hearth this must be at least 125mm thick with the minimum

dimensions as shown in diagram.

If the appliance instructions allow a superimposed

(decorative) hearth then this must be 12mm thick and the

dimensions as shown.

If the appliance can be installed in an elevated setting it is

recommended to increase the 225mm hearth depth to safely

contain any falling logs or embers. The higher the appliance

is installed the deeper the hearth should be to protect the

floor.

4.2 The building must have a suitable load-bearing capacity for

the hearth and appliance. Consult a structural engineer for

advice before proceeding.

4.3 When fitting into an existing hearth check that the appliance

complies with current construction regulations and is at least

the minimum sizes shown.

4.4 If there is no existing fireplace or chimney it is possible to

construct a suitable non-combustible housing and hearth

setting. The flue must be installed in accordance with all

local and national regulations and current rules in force.

4.5 Check if adding a new chimney to your property requires

planning permission.

4.6 Some houses are built using a timber frame construction

with high levels of thermal insulation. Isolate the appliance

from combustible materials, and provide sufficient ventilation

to maintain the heating efficiency.

5. Clearances to Combustible Materials

5.1 When fitting the appliance use the minimum clearances

detailed in the instructions between any point of the

appliance and any combustible material.

5.2 Use of combustible materials near the appliance should

conform to the requirements of the national Building

Regulations - Approved Document J.

For detailed dimensional clearance information refer to

the Appendix contained in the specific product installation

instructions, or product data plate.

5.3 Donotplacephotographs,TV’s,paintings,porcelainor

other combustible items on the wall or near the appliance.

Exposure to hot temperatures will cause damage. Do not

place furniture or other items such as drying clothing closer

than 1m from the front of this appliance.

WARNING: Extra fuel should not be stored on or next to the

appliance. Only keep enough fuel for immediate use nearby

and never leave the appliance unattended for long periods

with any combustible material in close proximity.

6. Fitting Appliances On A Boat

6.1 If an appliance is to be fitted in a boat it must be done in

accordance with the latest edition of BS 8511 (Code of

Practice for the Installation of Solid Fuel Heating Appliances

on Boats). The Code covers the design, installation

and operation of solid fuel heating appliances that are

suitable for fitting into inland waterway boats, and gives

guidance on product selection, design considerations,

installation requirements, inspection and testing, as well as

maintenance and safe use tips.

6.2 Consideration should also be given to the requirements

oftheBoatSafetyScheme(BSS)toensuretheboat’s

insurance remains valid.

6.3 The appliance should only be installed by a competent

person with experience of the latest edition of BS 8511 and

the Boat Safety Scheme (BSS).

6.4 Secure the product to a suitably constructed non-

combustible hearth.

6.5 All open flued appliances can be affected by temporary

atmospheric conditions which may allow fumes to enter the

boat. An electronic carbon monoxide detector conforming

to the latest edition of BSEN50292 must be fitted and

maintained.

6.6 Failure to safely install the appliance could endanger the

boat and persons on board.
