Installation Process
Pre-installation Checks:
Before you begin, it is critical to perform a smoke test on your clay liner. This step verifies the liner's condition, preventing future hazards.
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. *Preparation:* Start by placing the 325mm square adaptor plate firmly against the chimney stack’s bottom. Ensure that the surface is clean and free of debris.
2. *Marking Fixing Points:* Using a pencil or marker, make marks through the adaptor’s pre-drilled holes (or where holes need to be made) to signify where the adaptor will be secured.
3. *Drilling and Securing:* Drill the necessary pilot holes and secure the adaptor using recommended fasteners. It is important to ensure the adaptor is firmly attached to the masonry.
4. *Sealing:* Apply fire cement around the perimeter of the adaptor plate. Utilize fire rope to further secure the bond. This creates an airtight seal that enhances the overall performance of the chimney system.
5. *Final Fitting:* Fit your single wall pipe over the adaptor’s spigot. Add additional fire cement and fire rope as needed to finalise the installation, ensuring a safe and secure connection.
