Health and Safety Precautions

Special care must be taken when installing the stove such that the requirements of the

Health and Safety at Work Act are met.

Handling: Note: this unit weighs 150kg Adequate facilities must be available for loading,

unloading and site handling.

Fire cement: Some types of fire cement are caustic and should not be allowed to come into

contact with skin. In case of contact, wash immediately with plenty of water.

Asbestos: This stove contains NO asbestos. If there is any danger of disturbing any asbestos in

the course of the installation please seek specialist guidance and use appropriate protective

equipment.

Metal parts: When installing or servicing this stove, care should be taken to avoid the

possibility of personal injury.POSITION THE FIREIdentify where the Pyroclassic® IV fire is to be

situated ensuring the floor has enough weight bearing capacity. If an existing construction does not

meet this requirement then suitable measures ( eg a load distributing plate) shall be taken to achieve

it.

Note: Moving the fire. We have supplied 2 x 10mm steel rods (attached to the outside of palletized

box). Push the rods through the two 11mm holes located in the front plate and engage the

corresponding 11mm holes in the rear plate. The projecting ends of both rods can now be used as carry

rods. To make the whole unit lighter, the top cooking plate can also be carefully removed-make sure

that the insulating Kaowool in the top chamber is not disturbed

Replace the cook top when fire is in

position.

CHIMNEY

The chimney height and the position of the chimney terminal should conform to Building Regulations.

Please refer to the current issue of British Standards BS EN 15287-1:2007 design, installation and

commissioning of chimneys

Check that the chimney is in good condition, dry, free from cracks and obstructions. The diameter of

the flue should be not less than 150mm and not more than 230mm. If any of these requirements are

not met, the chimney should be lined by a suitable method.

The chimney must be swept before connection to the stove.

Where the chimney is believed to have previously served an open fire installation, it is possible that the

higher flue gas temperature from the stove may loosen deposits that were previously firmly adhered

with the consequent risk of flue blockage. It is recommended that the chimney be swept a second time

within a month of regular use after installation.

If you have any doubts about the suitability of your chimney, consult your local dealer.

If there is no existing chimney then either a prefabricated block chimney in accordance with Building

Regulations Approved Document J, or a twin walled insulated stainless steel flue to BS 4543 can be

used. These chimneys must be fitted in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and Building

Regulations

FLUE DRAUGHT

A flue draught of minimum 1.2mm to a maximum of 2.5mm water gauge is required for satisfactory

appliance performance. The flue draught should be checked under fire at high output. If it exceeds the

recommended maximum, a draught stabilizer must be fitted so that the rate of burning can be

controlled and to prevent overfiring. If the reading is less than the recommended minimum then the

performance of the appliance will be compromised.

CONNECTION TO THE CHIMNEY

An existing fireplace opening can be bricked up or sealed with a register plate. A short length of flue

pipe of a minimum 127mm internal diameter may then be used to connect the stove to the chimney.

This fluepipe should be of 316 grade stainless steel or vitreous enameled, nominal thickness 1.2mm.

Ensure that the pipe end is no closer than 76mm to the side or rear chimney walls.

Ideally the old fireplace should be filled in so that there is a smooth streamlined entry into the flue.

It is essential that all connections between the stove and the chimney flue are sealed and made

airtight.

Both the chimney and the flue pipe must be accessible for cleaning and if any parts of the chimney

cannot be reached through the stove, a soot door must be fitted in a suitable position to enable this.

CO Alarms

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 roon as the

appliance. Further guidance on the installation of the carbon monoxide alarm is available in BS EN

50292:2002 and from the alarm manufacturer’s instructions.

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.

AIR SUPPLY

See approved document J for detailed guidance, especially when a draft stabilizer has been fitted in the

flue and/or you are installing in newer build properties or specially modified properties which may

have a designed air permeability of less than 5m3/h.m2. Any air opening must be kept clear from

blockage and obstruction. Due consideration should be given to air requirements for any other

appliances in the same room or space.

LOWER HEAT SHIELD

The lower heat shield should be placed on top of the feet when the fire is in its final position

If you are

installing the fire angled into a corner, make sure the lower heat shield is already in place before

finishing the flue, etc., otherwise the angle of the wall may make it impossible to slip into place.

INSULATING HEARTH (NOT SUPPLIED BY PYROCLASSIC)

The Pyroclassic® IV must sit on an insulating hearth with a minimum distance of 369mm in front of the

heater when the hearth is installed flush with the surrounding combustible floor. The width of the

floor protector shall be no less than the width of the Pyroclassic® and shall extend not less than

200mm each side of any ash-removal or fuel loading openings unless the floor protector forms an

abutment with a wall or heat shield at a lesser distance

PYROCLASSIC RAISED HEARTH

Using the raised hearth allows the above mentioned 369mm distance at the front of the fuel loading

and ash removal opening to be reduced

The Pyroclassic® Hearth is raised 250mm from the floor thus

reducing the distance at the front of the door opening to 300mm

The Pyroclassic® Hearth measures 250mm (h) x 680mm (w) x 950mm (d)

NOTE: A marking hole is

located on top of the hearth that indicates the exact centre of the inner 150mm flue used with the

Pyroclassic® IV, you can use the measurements shown on our specifications pages to help position the

hearth prior to installing the fire

Place the hearth into position and bolt or screw into floor in 4 places,

(Fixings not supplied, installer to decide what to use) using the mounting holes provided in the hearth

Please use the provided black caps to cover the fixing holes once the hearth has been installed.

Also note that there are 4 cups on the top of the hearth, these cups are used to receive the adjustable

feet on the fire. Split pins are provided for the rear feet only to allow the fire to be anchored to the

hearth, these act as the locating restraints meaning you don’t need to use the fixing slots in the back

plate.

PYROCLASSIC® WOODBIN

The woodbin supplied is designed to slide under the Pyroclassic® Hearth

If the woodbin is used with a

wooden or concrete floor we have supplied 5 carpet squares which should be adhered to the

underside of the woodbin, one in each corner and one in the middle.

POWDER COATED PANELS

Insert the side panels before the front and rear panels. Note that the front panel has a Kaowool

gasket adhered to the inside and care should be taken when lowering this panel into position

As the

panel is lowered over the central bolt head pull the panel out slightly to ensure the gasket is not

affected in any way. Do not remove this bolt!

UNPROTECTED COMBUSTIBLE WALLS

Minimum unscreened clearances are 350mm from the back of the Pyroclassic® IV fire to the wall and

480mm from the side of the fire to any side wall

For a corner installation with the Pyroclassic® IV

angled at 45 degrees to the wall the minimum unscreened clearance from the walls is 370mm,

measured from the rear corners of the heater to the wall.

PYROCLASSIC® STANDARD WALL SCREEN

For use when the fire is positioned close to a combustible wall

It measures 550mm wide by 800mm

high and 25mm deep

Two angled brackets are supplied that should be screwed to the wall and the

screen riveted onto the brackets from the side

Note the holes in the screens are used for the powder

coating process not for installation purposes

Position the screen centered behind the fire and 50mm

below the top of the fire

This means the screen extends 750mm above the fire.

CORNER WALL SCREENS FOR COMBUSTIBLE WALLS

For use when the fire is installed into a corner. Measurements are 900mm wide by 800mm high and

25mm deep

One screen is butted into the corner wall and the other is butted against the first screen

Fitted and installed as above.

LOCATION RESTRAINTS

Two angle iron restraints that measure 50mm x 50mm with 2 8x20mm bolts which are supplied can

be used when the Pyroclassic® IV is not installed on the combination Hearth. These are fitted to the

two slots provided along the back plate of the Pyroclassic® IV fire and then attached to the floor with

suitable fixings. Installing the Location Restraints may cause the lower heat shield to lift slightly at

one end, however this will not affect the function of the heat shield.

COMMISSIONING & HANDOVER

Upon completion of the installation, allow a suitable period of time for any fire cement and mortar to

dry out. A small fire may then be lit and checked to ensure the smoke and fumes are taken from the

stove up the chimney and emitted safely to atmosphere. Do NOT run the stove at full output for at

least 24 hours. Ensure that the operating instructions and tools are left with the customer and advise

the customer on the correct use of fuels i.e. wood below 20% moisture content. Advise the customer

what to do should smoke or fumes be emitted from the stove. The user should be warned that the

appliance gets very hot and that a suitable fireguard to BS 6539 should be used in the presence of

children, elderly or infirm people.
