BEFORE INSTALLATION OF YOUR APPLIANCE

Firstly check all local building and heating regulations. Different states and different localities have varying regulations

about the installation and operation of wood stoves and you or your installer should be aware of these.

POSITIONING THE AMESTI

We enclose a sheet showing approved distances from the heater to combustible side and back walls. This also gives

details of the floor protector size. These clearance distances can only be reduced if the surrounding walls or floor are

made of noncombustible material (stone, brick or concrete).

CONSTRUCTING THE FLUE

A free standing appliance should have a flue kit made of stainless steel or requirement of AS/NZS2918/2001. The length

will depend on ceiling height and roof design but the top of the flue pipe must penetrate the roof line by a minimum of

1m or to be in excess of 3m from the roof in a horizontal line, or a minimum of 600mm higher than the ridge if within 3m

of the ridge.

If the draft is insufficient or periodic down drafting occurs and the appliance smokes or only burns slowly, extending the

flue or fitting a specialized cowl will usually cure it.

In the roof cavity and above the roof it is essential that the flue has two outer casings as it is important to prevent

condensation on the upper cooler parts of the flue as well as being a safety feature. Where the flue penetrates the

ceiling and roof, it must comply with AS/NZS2918/2001. If the stove is fitted into and existing chimney ensure that it is

sealed at the base of the chimney with a register plate and install the flue lengths up the chimney to atmosphere and fit

the appropriate termination chimney plate and cowl.

The flue kit must be installed according to the manufacturer's instruction.
