European Standards, need to be complied with when installing this appliance".
For further information on installing and using fireplaces and multi-fuel stoves, please see the relevant building
regulations that apply to the country in which WESTFIRE UNIQ 35 has been approved.
These instructions cover the basic principles to ensure the satisfactory installation of the WESTFIRE UNIQ35

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 recom-
mendations given in British Standards BS EB 8303, BS EN 15287 design, installation and commissioning of
chimneys as an alternative means to achieve an equivalent level of performance to that obtained following

HEALTH AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Special care must be taken when installing the stove such that the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work
Act are met.
Handling
Adequate facilities must be available for loading, unloading and site handling.
Fire Cement
Some types of fire cement are caustic and should not be allowed to come into contact with the skin. In case of
contact wash immediately with plenty of water.
Asbestos
This stove contains no asbestos. If there is a possibility of disturbing any asbestos in the course of installation then
please seek specialist guidance and use appropriate protective equipment.
CO Alarms
Building regulations require that whenever a new or replacement fixed solid fuel or wood/biomass appliance
is installed in a dwelling a carbon monoxide alarm must be fitted in the same room as the appliance. Further
guidance on the installation of the carbon monoxide alarm is available in BS EN 50292:2002 and from the alarm
manufacturer's instructions. Provision of an alarm must not be considered a substitute for either installing the
appliance correctly or ensuring regular servicing and maintenance of the appliance and chimney system.
Metal Parts
When installing or servicing this stove care should be taken to avoid the possibility of personal injury.
Stove paint Aerosols
Paint aerosols are flammable and therefore dangerous to use around a lit stove. Be sure to allow aerosol spray
paints to dry and ventilate the room well before lighting the stove. The use of any aerosol around lit stove is
dangerous and care must be take in handling aerosols.
