Section 2 - Stove Installation Requirements
2.1 WARNING - Installing a stove is a controlled service, the law requires that the
installation is completed by a qualified installer or that the building inspector is in
formed. Check with your local authority.
2.2 ASBESTOS - This Flavel stove does not contain asbestos, but asbestos material
may be encountered during installation of the stove. If in doubt contact a suitably
qualified professional to deal with Asbestos or material suspected to be asbestos.
2.3 WEIGHT - Your stove is heavy 64kg Net (81kg packed) - take care when moving
it and ensure that the fireplace to which you are attempting to install it can take
the weight - consider the use of a load distribution plate.
2.4 FIREGUARD - This stove becomes extremely hot is use, therefore a fireguard
should be used if children, the elderly or infirm are present.
2.5 FIREPLACE - Stoves become extremely hot within use, therefore the fireplace to
which the stove is installed must be made from durable fireproof materials. Thin
stone slabs (less than 50mm) risk cracking unless cut into sections to allow for
expansion and backed by heat resistant concrete. Even beyond the safety
clearances stated items subjected to radiant heat from the stove can still become
extremely hot, therefore please take care when siting items such as fuel, paper
etc.
2.6 AIR SUPPLY - Your stove needs air to breathe and therefore perform correctly.
There must be a permanent fresh air supply into the space to which it is installed
equal to 550mm2 for each kW of output. This can often be provided by air leaking
around door frames etc. It is commonly accepted that this level of adventitious
ventilation alone may suffice for stoves of output less than 5kW but in the case of
any doubt, fit a purpose made air vent. If an extractor fan is fitted in the room,
any interconnecting room or room in the vicinity can detrimentally affect the
performance of the stove so please check stove performance with these extraction
fans in operation. Where there are additional combustion appliances within the
property please ensure that the relevant requirements of Approved Document J of
the Building Regulations are complied with.
When air inlet grills are positioned to provide combustion air they must not be
liable to blockage. Regular checks should be made to ensure that any air inlet
grill is not obstructed.
2.7 REGULATIONS : All local regulations including those referring to National
and European standards need to be complied with when installing this appliance.

2.9 APPLIANCE EXE PTION UNDER SECTION 21 OF THE CLEAN AIR ACT
1993 AND S OKE CONTROL AREAS
2.9.1 The Flavel Arundel M 2 multi-fuel free-standing stove, model number FCMSB2
has been exempted under the Clean Air Act 1993 for use in smoke control areas
when burning wood logs when it is fitted with the smoke control stop (part
number F-176950)
The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Area’s
2.9.2 Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the whole or part of the
disrict 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. It is also an offence to aquire an “unauthorised
fuel” for use within a smoke control area unless it is used in an “exempt”
appliance (“exempted” from the controls which generally apply in a smoke control
area).
2.9.3 The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has powers under
the Act to authorise smokeless fuels or exempt appliances for use in smoke
control areas in England. In Scotland and Wales this power rests with Ministers in
the devolved administrations for those countries. Seperate legislation, the Clean
Air (Northern Ireland) Order 1981, applies in Northern Ireland. Therefore it is a
requirement that fuels burnt or obtained for use in smoke control areas have been
“authorised” in Regulations and that appliances used to burn solid fuel in those
areas (other than “authorised” fuels) have been exempted by an Order made and
signed by the Secretary of State or Minister in the devolved administrations.
Further information on the requirements of the Clean Air Act can be found here :
http://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk
Your local authority is responsible for implementing the Clean Air Act 1993
including designation and supervision of smoke control areas and you can contact
them for details of Clean Air Act requirements

2.9 APPLIANCE EXE PTION UNDER SECTION 21 OF THE CLEAN AIR ACT
1993 AND S OKE CONTROL AREAS (CONTINUED).
2.9.4 Refuelling on to a low fire bed
If there is insufficient burning material in the fire bed to light a new fuel charge,
excessive smoke emission can occur. Refuelling must be carried out onto a
sufficient quantity of glowing embers and ash that the new fuel charge will ignite.
If the fire bed is too low or cool, suitable kindling must be used to re-light fires.
2.9.5 Fuel overloading
The maximum amount of fuel specified in this manual must not be exceeded,
overloading can cause excessive smoke.
2.9.6 Operation with door left open
Operation with the door left open can cause excessive smoke. The appliance
must not be operated with the door left open except as directed in the
instructions.
2.9.7 Dampers left open
Operation with the air controls or dampers can cause excessive smoke. The
appliance must not be operated with the air controls or dampers left open except
as directed in the instructions.

Section 4 - Suitable Wood fuel for the Flavel Arundel k2 Stove - User instruction
4.1 SMO E CONTROL - In certain areas special rules apply regarding the use of some
fuels, please ensure that you check with your local authority. This Flavel Arundel
stove may be used in smoke control area’s when operated strictly in accordance
with these instructions and with Soliftec Smoke Advice sheet No. 1, see front
cover of this manual for further details.
4.2 WOOD TYPES - All types of wood are suitable providing they are well seasoned,
untreated and have a moisture level of between 12% & 20%. For softwoods they
will need to have been left in storage for 9 months in order for the moisture to of
evaporated. For hardwoods this could take in excess of 18 months for the wood
to season. If you are unsure of the moisture content of your logs it is
recommended that you purchase a suitable mositure meter which will allow you to
measure the moisture content of the wood you are planning to use.
4.3 WOOD SIZE - It is recommended that logs should be no greater than 5” / 125mm
in diameter and a maximum of 250mm in length. The logs must be dry with a
moisture content no greater than 20%.
4.4 WET TIMBER WARNING - Wet timber and logs must not be used as this will
create excess tar deposits in the chimney and the stove and could considerably
increase the possibility of a chimney fire. Wet timber and wood also increases
emissions, creates more smoke and will reduce the lifespan of the stove.
4.5 JOINERY WASTE - Burning joinery waste is acceptable, providing the wood is un
treated and dry. Joinery waste generally is softwood and hence will not burn as
cleanly or for as long as hardwood logs.
Section 5 - Suitable ineral fuel for the Flavel Arundel K2 Stove - User
instruction
5.1 ANTHRACITE - (Smokeless) is a natural hard, shiny form of coal. Slow to light it
can burn for very long periods with great heat. Use the “small” size of this fuel.
5.2 BRIQUETTES - Compressed blocks of fuel, generally able to burn for long periods.
Trade names for these fuels include “Homefire” and “Phurnacite”.
5.3 PETROLEUM CO E - THIS FUEL IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE WITH THIS STOVE.
If used, “Petcoke” (also known as “Longbeach”) will rapidly degrade the interior of
the stove.
5.4 HOUSECOAL OR BITUMOUS COAL - THIS FUEL IS NOT SUITABLE FOR USE WITH
THIS STOVE. This fuel is designed for use in open fires, it makes tarry smoke
flammable gas which makes it difficult to control in a closed fire such as a stove.
I PORTANT NOTE : DO NOT BURN ANY FOR OF HOUSEHOLD WASTE WITH
THIS STOVE AND NEVER USE ANY FOR OF LIQUID FUEL ON THE STOVE.
