specifically designed for Helo's and Hastor’s wood heated products.) Minimum diameter for the pipe:

125mm. Minimum length: 3.5m.

The remaining flue opening in the back wall must be covered with the plug and screwable plate that

are in the combustion chamber on delivery.

When the connection is made in the back, the modular chimney's attachment goes directly into the

back wall opening (Pictures 2 and 3). For other flue pipes Helo offers specially made adaptors.

ATTENTION! The attachment pipe, the plug and cover plate for the back wall flue opening are

delivered loose in the combustion chamber. When the top opening is used, the back wall plug must

always be pressed tightly into place and the cover plate installed.

When the back wall opening is used, the plug is pressed into the top opening and the cover plate

stored elsewhere.

2.3.1. Masonry flue

The fireplace must be connected to the flue channel with the accompanying connection pipe. Pierce

the chimney’s masonry with a through hole that is 20 mm wider than the outer diameter of the

connection pipe. The aperture between pipe and masonry must be sealed with heat resistant mineral

wool – do not use plaster! (This ensures the necessary room for movement due to the heat expansion

of the pipe during use). Similarly, the connection pipe may also be attached to the top of the fireplace

by using a 45 degree bent pipe. (Adhere to the required safety distances. For non insulated pipe it is

1000mm to the nearest combustible material.)

2.4. Foundation

Make sure that the supporting floor can carry the weight of the fireplace. The base must also be

smooth and horizontal.

If the fireplace is not attached from the back wall to a masonry flue, but from the top, the weight of the

chimney must be accounted for as well. Further information and guidance about the installation can be

requested from the local fire department.

2.5. Safety distances

The given safety distances must be adhered to under all circumstances to prevent fire hazards!

The safety distances are minimum lengths to flammable material.

If the fireplace is installed on a floor that consists of flammable material, a protective plate made of

metal or equivalent fireproof material must be placed in front of it. The plate must extend 400mm in

front and at least 100mm to each side of the feed door.

If the fireplace is connected to a masonry flue that is wider than the fireplace, a 50 mm aperture must

be left in the rear.
