Carbon Monoxide It is now a requirement for an electronic carbon monoxide detector conforming to BS EN 50291 to be fitted in the room where the appliance has been installed. This should be maintained and tested in accordance with the manufactures instructions. Flue Requirements This appliance must not be used in a shared flue system.

It should be noted that the Building Regulations requirements may be met by adopting the relevant recommendations given in British Standards BS 8303, BS EN 15287-1:2010 as an alternative means to achieve an equivalent level of performance to that obtained following the guidance given in Approved Document J.
5. Converting Top to Rear Exit The Apollo stoves cannot be rear exit. All other stoves can be converted and are pre-assembled for a top exit. A blanking plate is available please contact your local stockists. To Convert the Appliance to Rear Exit: 1) Remove lid.
6. Smoke Control All Chesney’s stoves are DEFRA exempt appliances that can be used in Smoke Control Zones. The “Smoke Tab” is fitted on the underside of the fire cube on the left hand side and must be removed with the retaining bolt and discarded. The Milan and Shoreditch stoves have heat shields under the stove that will have to be removed by undoing the four hexagonal bolts to reveal the “Smoke Tab”.

The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the whole or part of the district of the authority to be a smoke control area. It is an offence to emit smoke from a chimney of a building, from a furnace or from any fixed boiler if located in a designated smoke control area.
7. Apollo 4 and 8 Installation The Apollo range of inset stoves have been designed to be installed in two stages. The outer casing needs to be installed before the fire cube, and the outer frame and door will need to be removed to install this appliance. 1) Remove all internal parts (baffles, side and rear bricks, solid fuel grate and ash pan (8 series only).
Chimney Connection 1) Drop the liner through the outer casing and fix the flue adaptor, then fit the flue collar to the adaptor bending the adaptor lugs to secure the collar to the adaptor. 2) On the 8 series only there is an additional directional flue collar that bolts to the inside of the outer casing.
8. Door Seal Replacement and Door Handles Always use gloves when handling ceramic rope. Apollo and Milan Remove door from the stove and remove rope seal clamps. Discard old rope seal and replace with Chesney’s rope seal. Do not tighten rope seal clamps until all bots are in and hand tight, then tighten all bolts.
9. Commissioning Check all internal parts are fitted correctly and there are no gaps between the firebricks and baffles and the log retainer is secure: Wood Burning Only 4 and 5 Series Secondary baffle. Firebricks: base, back, sides and baffle. Metal flue protector strip on top of the back brick Log retainer (not fitted on Milan 4 model) Multi-Fuel 6 and 8 Series...

Door Seal Testing and Adjustment Without a good sound airtight seal around the door the stove will not work as designed and will lead to the glass blackening and a loss of control. Over time the rope seal compresses and the seal between the door and the fire cube is compromised resulting in the need to replace the rope.

Apollo models The frame and door retainer must be removed before the door can be removed see Apollo information pages. Then rotate the hinge pin clockwise or anticlockwise as described. Alpine models The door will have to be removed as described in the Converting Alpine to rear exit section.
10. The Curing Process Your Chesney’s stove has been designed to operate with minimum effort. As with all wood burning and multi fuel stoves your new stove will need to be ‘cured’ before commencing normal use. For the first lighting of the stove after installation it is VERY IMPORTANT that the door remains slightly ajar during the first firing.
11. Stove Paint Application Instructions Chesney’s stove paint is quality, fast drying high temperature paint for use on wood, multi-fuel and gas stoves and other steel and cast iron products with in-service temperatures to 650° C. This product is not recommended for Vitreous Enamelled surfaces.
12. First Lighting and Operation Your Chesney’s stove has been designed and built to last, and provided the instructions and guidance in this manual have been followed the appliance will give you years of warmth and pleasure. This appliance is not to be used as an incinerator. Only HETAS approved wood logs and smokeless fuels are recommended by Chesneys for use in this appliance.

Over-Firing In the event of over firing the stove (flue collar, top of stove or log retainer glowing red/orange) push the air control in fully (with gloves provided) this will shut the appliance down. Over-firing will damage the stove and is not covered under the warranty.
13. Maintenance Guarantee Your Chesneys stove comes with a 5 year guarantee on the stove body and a 12 month warranty on the non consumable parts such as the door, handle, hinges and air plates. Consumable items such as fire bricks, baffles, glass, rope seal, ash pans and grids are consumable items and are not covered by a warranty.
Page 32
Cleaning The body of the stove should be vacuumed with a brush attachment; any marks should be wiped with a very lightly damp cloth. The glass can be cleaned with damp newspaper dipped in the wood ash, or use a proprietary glass cleaner, no abrasives should be used. Always ensure the ash is cold before de ashing.
