Any solid fuel installers out there?
I am in the process of designing the flue for the stove for the shed.
I already have the stove (a Stovax Stockton 4 Multifuel). I want a rear outlet so that the whole top can be used as a hot plate. One supplier is stating that a 90 degree (45-straight-45) bend is acceptable in a run of pipe but not connected directly to the rear of the stove. However Diagram 15 and Paragraph 1.48 seem to show that this is acceptable and further the dimensions of the bends shown at http://www.firesonline.co.uk/acatalo...Flue_Pipe.html seem to tie in neatly with the requiremnt for "maximum 150mm horizontal section from back outlet of the appliance". The alternative is a 90 degree T with a plug - however this is difficult to sweep without using the access at the bottom and the clearance between the hearth and the bottom of the T is 320mm or just over 1'. The 45-straight-45 bend is also smoother for gas flow although it will require slightly more clearance behind the stove. So is there anyone out there who is current and confirm which interpretation is correct? Cheers Dave R |
