INSTALLATION
3.2 TOP EXIT
3.2.1 There are two types of top exit flues available, one with a
vertical terminal, the other with a horizontal terminal.
Minimum and maximum flue lengths are shown in Diagram
3 under Site Requirements, 1.4. There is an optional
decorative collar, part No. 8548, to cover the gap between
the top plate and the flue.
THIS MUST BE IN PLACE BEFORE THE FLUE IS
INSTALLED.
IMPORTANT: WHEN INSTALLING A TOP EXIT FLUE
REFER TO THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS ON THIS
PAGE FOR THE APPROPRIATE SIZE RESTRICTOR.
VERTICAL & HORIZONTAL FLUE
TABLE A - TOP EXIT FLUE - VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL
RESTRICTORS
Vertical Flue Height Horizontal Length Restrictor Size
From Top of Stove
500mm to 1490mm 250mm to 1000mm No restrictor
1500mm to 3000mm 250mm to 5000mm 75mm Ø
3.2.2 The appliance is factory set for rear exit, therefore for top
exit the spigots and blanking plates must be reversed. See
diagram 5. Take care not to drop or damage the gaskets. If a
restrictor is required fit this between the small outlet spigot
and the air duct. See diagram 10. The large outer spigot
must be fitted with the flue fixing hole facing forward.
3.2.3 If the horizontal terminal is used assemble the required
amount of vertical flue including the 90° elbow onto the
stove. Drill through the fixing hole in the spigot using a
3.5mm drill and secure with the screw provided. Do not
forget the optional decorative collar if you have purchased
one. A wall plate is supplied to secure the flue to the inside
wall. Bend the tab to 90° and loosely place on the elbow.
3.2.4To determine the height of the hole for the horizontal flue,
measure from the hearth to the centre of the elbow. See
Diagram 11.
TAKE CARE WHEN MARKING OUT FOR THE FLUE. IT IS
DIFFICULT TO MOVE AFTER INSTALLATION.
A 152mm (6") diameter hole is required to install the flue.
This can be achieved by either:
a) Core Drill
b) Hammer & Chisel
It is advisable to drill small holes around the circumference
when using method b). Make good at both ends of the hole.
3.2.5 The final length of horizontal flue pipe incorporates the
terminal. This is the only section that can be shortened.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SHORTEN ANY OTHER SECTION
OF FLUE PIPE.
The fixing holes for the wall plate can only be marked on
the wall. Use the wall plate as a template. The securing tab
can be either on top or underneath the flue. See diagram
12.
