Fume Emission Warning Note: Properly installed and operated this appliance will not emit fumes. Occasional fume from deashing and re-fueling may occur. Persistent fume emission is potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated. If fume emission does persist then take the following immediate actions should be taken: a) Open the doors and windows to ventilate the room. b) Let the fire out and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance. c) Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if required. d) Do not attempt to relight fire until cause of fume has been identified, if necessary seek professional advise. The most common cause of fume emission is flueway or chimney blockage. For you own safety these must be kept clean. Freezing Ifa boiler is fitted do not light the fire if there is any possibility that any parts of the system may be frozen. Chimney fires If the chimney is thoroughly and regularly swept, chimney fires should not occur. However, ifa chimney fire does occur then turn the control knob to the minimum setting (see Fig. 1), and tightly close the doors of the appliance. This should cause the chimney fire to go out in which case the control should be kept at the minimum setting until the fire in the appliance has gone out. The chimney and flueways should then be cleaned. If thechimney fire does not go out when the above action is taken then the fire brigade should be called immediately. Aftera chimney fire the chimney should be carefully examined for any damage. Expert advise should be sought if necessary. Door Glass Backs Up Differences in chimney draughts mean that the best setting of the air controls will vary for different installations.A certain amount of experimentation may be required, however the following points should be noted and witha little care should enable the glass to be kept clean in most situations: a) The airwash relies ona supply of heated air to keep the Page6 SLX20 9.03 glass clean, therefore, when lighting the stove allow the firebed to become well established before turning the thermostat down. It may sometimes be beneficial to also keep the doors slightly ajar whilst the fire becomes established. This can also apply when re-fuelling. b) When re-fuelling keep the fuel backa little from the front firebars, do not try to fit too much fuel into the firebox. c) Never completely clse the airwash control-asa guide it should be at leasta quarter open. d) Wet wood or logs overhanging the front firebars will cause the glass to blacken. It is always more difficult to keep the glass clean when running the stove very slowly for long periods. If blackening of the glass still occurs check that all flue connections are well sealed. It is also important that the chimney draw is sufficient and that it is not affected by down-draught.Whenthechimneyis warma draught reading of at least 2.5mm (0.10 inches) water gauge should be obtained. Page7 SLX20 9.03 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CHARNWOOD SLX20 HEALTH AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNING please take care when installing the appliance that the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act are met. Some types of fire cement are caustic and should not be allowed to come into contact with the skin. In case of contact wash with plenty of water. If there isa possibility of disturbing any asbestos in the course of installation then please use appropriate equipment. There must not be an extractor fan in the same room as the appliance as this can cause the appliance to emit fumes into the room. There must be an adequate air supply to the room in which the appliance is installed totalling at least 100 square cm. (16 square inches) to provide combustion air. This is particularly necessary if the room is double glazed. In addition to these instructions the requirements of BS:8303 and BS:6461 Pt 1&2; 1984 must be fulfilled. Local Authority Bye-laws and Building Regulations regarding the installation of Solid Fuel burning appliances, flues and chimney must be observed. PERFORMANCE The rated output for the SLX20 is 5.4 kW (18500btu/h) to the room. This is the output obtained burning smokeless fuel with the doors closed overa4 hourly re-fueling interval. There is an optional add-indomestic hot water boiler available with an output of 2.0 kW (6800 btu/h). If this is fitted then the output to the room will be reduced bya corresponding amount. CHIMNEY In order for the appliance to perform satisfactorily the chimney height must not be less than4 metres measured from the outlet of the fire to the top of the chimney. The chimney should preferably be 175mm (7 inches) or 200mm (8 inches) internal diameter or square with sides of 175mm or 200mm internally and MUST NOT BE LESS THAN 150mm (6 INCHES) INTERNAL DIAMETER OR 150x 150MM INTERNAL SQUARE. 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 havea excessive cross sectional area (e.g. Greater than 250mmx 250mm).
