Chimney Requirements
Please note Broseley Fires do not provide flue pipes, closure plates or any
other associated accessory.
IMPORTANT – This appliance can only be rear flued, the top outlet
connection is for decorative purposes only.
Here is a typical example of an
installation with a class 1 flue,
please note we do not supply
chimney closure plates. The
appliance can be installed in
any adequate area suitable for
solid fuel fires and stoves. It
can use a class 1, class 2 and
pre-cast flue. For pre-cast flue
installations it is ESSENTIAL
that a sealed connection is
made into the actual flue
system (a void behind the
closure plate is not permitted).
Please refer to the codes of
best practice for further advice
on pre-cast flue’s. The 150mm
pipe supplied can be cut down
in length but CANNOT be extended.
Before you install the stove, make sure the chimney flue outlet is correctly positioned to
align with the flue outlet on the stove and that the chimney is in good condition. If not, a
chimney liner must be installed or a suitable class II gas flue used. A draught is
necessary to ensure the products of combustion are fully evacuated.
Ideally it is recommended that the flue run is as straight as possible. The flue
must have a minimum vertical height of 3 metres to insure adequate draught. You
can have a maximum of four bends in the run, each bend must not exceed 45°and
an additional metre of vertical flue should be provided for each bend.
Prior to installation, the installer should insure that the flue is free from obstruction and
any dampers must be fixed in a permanently open position. Ensure the chimney is not
closed and that it has been swept and subsequently smoke tested.
Make sure that rain, birds or any foreign body cannot get into the chimney to cause
damage or blockage. This problem can normally be overcome by fitting an approved gas
cowl. It is essential for the effective running of your stove that the chimney draws
properly to allow the products of combustion to escape.
