Installation Instructions

Important information
Before installation and/or use of this
appliance please read these instructions
carefully to ensure that all requirements
are fully understood.
This appliance must be installed by a
registered engineer, or approved by
building control, failure to do so may
endanger life and property.
All the below instructions should work in
conjunction with building regulations
document J, if there is a variation the
most stringent requirement should be
adhered to. Each installation is unique
to the property, the information
contained in this manual may not give
exact installation requirements for your
installation.
The installation must comply with
Building Regulations, European
Standards and Local authority bylaws.

Location of the unit

The appliance must stand on a level,
non-combustible hearth with a minimum
thickness of 12mm.
The Woodpecker range of stoves has
been tested and approved for use with a
superficial hearth, therefore the hearth
temperatures are below 100°C and the
use of a constructional hearth is not
necessary.
The superficial hearth must extend fully
beneath the appliance and extend
150mm to either side and 225mm in
front of the appliance.
The hearth should also incorporate a
Metal Parts
This appliance may contain sharp metal
edges, take care when installing or
servicing this appliance to avoid
personal injury. Please use appropriate
personal protective equipment at all
times.
Fire Cement
Some types of fire cement are caustic
and should not be allowed to come into
contact with the skin. In case of contact
wash immediately with plenty of water.
Asbestos
This appliance contains no asbestos.
If there is the possibility of disturbing
any asbestos in the installation of this
appliance then specialist advice must
be sought and appropriate precautions
taken.
clearly defined edge (change of
level/clear demarcation line) to
discourage the placement of
combustible materials within the hearth
area.
The hearth and building construction
must be of a suitable material to comply
with current building and local authority
regulations.
The fabrication of the construction must
have a suitable load bearing capacity for
the appliance and hearth.
If in any doubt, please consult a
competent person for advice before
proceeding.

Ventilation
Requirements
Building Regulations document J states
that purpose provided permanent
ventilation is not required in England
and Wales unless the appliance nominal
rated output is greater than 5kW.
The Woodpecker range of stoves have a
nominal output of 5Kw and therefore do
not require additional ventilation, unless:
• The air permeability of the building is
less than 5.0m³/ (h.m²), then 550mm
of permanent ventilation/Kw of the
nominal output is required as per
Building Regulations document J.
• If the appliance is installed into or
adjacent to, a room containing an
extractor fan then additional testing
and ventilation is required in line with
Approved Document (A.D.) 1.21
If difficulty in starting the fire or any
excessive fuming is experienced,
ventilation may be used in place as
required to eliminate these flue
problems.
If a flue draught stabiliser is fitted then
extra ventilation is required. See
Document J of the Building Regulations
for detailed guidance especially in new
build properties which often require
purpose provided ventilation be added.
Outside direct combustible air
connection
The Woodpecker range of stoves are
supplied with the ability of using a
dedicated 80mm diameter direct
connection duct through a suitable route
to the outside air. It can be connected to
the rear of the stove and should be
fitted at the time of stove installation.
Only the approved kit for ACR stoves
should be used (DA80 WP4 / DA100
WP5). This is designed to supply all the
necessary air (Primary, Secondary and
Tertiary) for safe combustion and
operation of the stove.
Providing there is no depressurisation of
the property by mechanical or other
types of ventilation, the flue, chimney
and ventilation duct are working
correctly, and properly maintained clear
of obstructions or leaks etc.
The kit supplies all the primary,
secondary and tertiary air to the stove
and may be used where mechanical
ventilation and heat recovery (MVHR)
units are used.
Some additional instructions for
installation are provided with the
dedicated kit supplied.
NOTE: in order to register the
installation with HETAS/Building
Control as of 2016 certain extra
testing and certification is required
if using an outside air connection.
Flue Draft
A flue draught at the flue collar of the
appliance with a minimum reading of
2.2mm to a maximum 3.5mm water
gauge (22 to 35 Pascals) is required for
satisfactory appliance performance.
This relates to 12-25 Pascals at the
tapping on EN13240/13229 test rigs
which is often quoted.
The Woodpecker range requires a
minimum of 12Pa within 3 minutes of
ignition (with the stove door closed) for
correct combustion.
The flue draught should be checked
under fire at start up and high output, if
the values fall outside of the stated
parameters then remedial works should
be carried out.
If it greatly exceeds the recommended
maximum, a draught stabiliser must be
fitted in line with building control
document J so that the rate of burning
can be controlled to prevent overfiring.
