In all cases the installation must comply with current Building Regulations, Local Authority Byelaws
and other specifications or regulations as they affect the installation of the stove.
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 as an alternative means to achieve
an equivalent level of performance to that obtained following the guidance given in Approved
Document J.

Chimney Connection
In order for the stove to perform satisfactorily the chimney height must be sufficient to ensure an adequate draught to
clear the products of combustion and prevent smoke problems into the room.

NOTE: A chimney height of not less than 4.5 metres measured vertically from the outlet of the stove to the top of the
chimney should be satisfactory. Alternately the calculation procedure given in BS 5854:1980 may be used as the basis
for deciding whether a particular chimney design will provide sufficient draught.
FLUE & CHIMNEY CONNECTION TO STOVE
The outlet from the chimney should be above the roof of the building in accordance with the provisions of Building
Regulations Approved Document J. If installation is into an existing chimney then it must be sound and have no cracks or
other faults which might allow fumes into the house. Older properties, especially, may have chimney faults or the cross
section may be too large .
Mendip Stoves recommend the use of a solid fuel flue lining system for all installations into existing chimneys. All chimney
systems must be used in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document J.
If an existing chimney is used the chimney must be clear of obstruction and be swept clean immediately before installation
of the stove. The chimney should be tested to confirm the chimney will provide the correct chimney pressure for the stove.
If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire the chimney should be swept one month after installation to clear any soot falls
which may have occurred due to the difference in combustion between the stove and the open fire. If there is no existing
chimney then either a prefabricated block chimney in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document J or a twin
walled insulated stainless steel flue to BS 1856-1 .
