Installation instructions
The following pages give instructions for the safe and proper installation of this heating
appliance in the UK. These instructions cover the basic principles of installation, although
detail may need slight modification to suit particular local site conditions. In all cases the
installation must comply with current UK Building Regulations, Local Authority Byelaws
and other specifications or regulations as they affect the installation of the stove. Please
note that it is a legal requirement under England and Wales Building Regulations that
the installation of the stove is either carried out under Local Authority Building Control
approval or is installed by a Competent Person registered with a Government approved
Competent Persons Scheme. HETAS Ltd operate such a Scheme and a listing of their Reg-
istered Competent Persons can be found on their website at www.hetas.co.uk.
It should be noted that the current Building Regulations requirements are given in Ap-
proved Document J. These requirements may also be met by adopting the relevant recom-
mendations given in British Standards BS 8303, BS 6461 and BS 7566.
WARNING: Health and Safety Advice Notice
The installation of this heating appliance is governed by the Health and Safety at Work
Act 1974. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that all requirements of this Act
are met during the installation works. Attention is drawn in particular to the following:
Handling: The appliance is a heavy item and 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. Protective gloves should be worn when handling
fire cement. In case of contact with the skin 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.
Metal Parts: When installing or servicing this stove care should be taken to avoid the
possibility of personal injury.
Important Warning –Preparatory Work and Safety Checks:
This stove must not be installed into a chimney that serves any other heating appli-•
ance.
There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the same room as the stove as this can •
cause the stove to emit fumes into the room.
If this appliance is installed into an existing chimney, the chimney must first be swept •
and examined for soundness and suitability before the appliance is installed (see also
section headed “Chimney”).
ENGLISH RAIS - manual for Q-20

Convection
RAIS stoves are convection stoves. This means that the stove’s back and side panels are
not over-heated. Convection means that there is a circulation of air, which ensures that
the heat is distributed more evenly throughout the entire room. The cold air is sucked in
at the base of the stove up through the convection channel, which runs along the stove’s
combustion chamber. The heated air pours out at the top of the stove, which ensures a
circulation of warm air throughout the room.
The stoves are equipped with “cold” door handles – RAIS special feature – which means
you could almost do away with gloves. Be aware, however, that all exterior surfaces be-
come hot during use - so take extreme care.
Chimney
The chimney is the driving force which makes the stove function. In order for the stove to
perform satisfactorily the chimney height must be sufficient to ensure the correct draught
of 14 to 18 Pa so as to clear the products of combustion and prevent problems of smoke
emanating into the room when firing.
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. Alternatively the calcula-
tion procedure given in BS 5854:1980 may be used as the basis for deciding whether a
particular chimney design will provide sufficient draught.
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 i.e. more than 230 mm x 230
mm. Remedial action should be taken, if required, seeking expert advice, if necessary. If it
is found necessary to line the chimney then a flue liner suitable for solid fuel must be used
in accordance with Building Regulations Approved Document J.
Any existing chimney must be clear of obstruction and have been swept clean immedi-
ately before installation of the stove. If the stove is fitted in place of an open fire then 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 4543 can be used. These chimneys must be fitted in accordance with the manu-
facturer’s instructions and Building Regulations.
ENGLISH RAIS - manual for Q-20

A single wall metal fluepipe is suitable for connecting the stove to the chimney but is not
suitable for using for the complete chimney. The chimney and connecting fluepipe must
have a minimum diameter of 150 mm and its dimension should be not less than the size
of the outlet socket of the stove which is 150 mm in diameter. Any bend in the chimney
or connecting fluepipe should not exceed 45°. 90°bends should not be used.
Combustible material should not be located where the heat dissipating through the walls
of fireplaces or flues could ignite it. Therefore when installing the stove in the presence
of combustible materials due account must be taken of the guidance on the separation
of combustible material given in Building Regulations Approved Document J and also in
these stove instructions.
If it is found that there is excessive draught in the chimney then either an adjustable flue
damper or alternatively a draught stabiliser should be fitted. The adjustable flue damper
should not close off the flue entirely but should in its closed position leave a minimum
continuous opening free area of at least 20 % of the total cross sectional area of the flue
or fluepipe.
Adequate provision e.g. easily accessible soot door or doors must be provided for sweep-
ing the chimney and connecting fluepipe.
You should also familiarise yourself with the draught conditions for chimneys with 2 flues.
The flue outlet spigot is 150 mm in diameter.
For strong draughts, the chimney or flue should be fitted with a draught stabiliser. In
which case, it is important to ensure that there is a free flow-through area of minimum
20 cm² when the regulating gate is shut. Otherwise, the fuel energy may not be used
optimally. If, at any time, you are unsure about the condition of the chimney, you should
contact a chimney sweep.
Remember that access to the access door should be kept clear.

Installation
When installing the wood burning stove, there are some rules which MUST be followed:
The stove must be set up and installed in accordance with all current national and local
rules and regulations. Local authorities and a chimney specialist should be contacted prior
to set up.
It is prohibited to carry out unauthorised alterations to the stove.
There must be plenty of fresh air in the room where the stove is being installed, in order
to ensure proper combustion. Note that any mechanical exhaust ventilation - e.g. an
extraction hood - may reduce the air supply. Any air grates must be placed in such a man-
ner, that the air supply is not blocked.
The floor structure must be able to carry the weight of the wood burning stove, as well as
the weight of a chimney, if necessary.
When you choose where to set up your RAIS wood burning stove, you should consider
the heat distribution to the other rooms. This will enable you to get the best use out of
your stove.
The stove should be set up at a safe distance from inflammable materials.
See the manufacturer’s plate on the wood burning stove.
Installation distance in case of combustible wall
To find out whether the wall next to where the stove is going to be installed is flammable,
you should contact your building contractor or the local building authorities.
The hearth should be able to accommodate the weight of the stove. The chimney must
be independently supported by wall brackets or a ceiling support plate. The weight of the
stove is indicated in the brochure.
The stove should always be installed on a non-combustible hearth of a size and construc-
tion that is in accordance with the provisions of the current UK Building Regulations Ap-
proved Document J.
If the stove is to be installed on a wooden floor, it must be covered with a noncombustible
material at least 12mm thick, in accordance with UK Building Regulations Approved Docu-
ment J, to a distance of 300 mm in front of the stove and 150 mm to each side measuring
from the door of the combustion chamber.
The clearance distances to combustible material beneath, surrounding or upon the hearth
and walls adjacent to the hearth should comply with the guidance on the separation of
combustible material given in UK Building Regulations Approved Document J and also in
these stove instructions.

Installation distance in case of non-combustible wall
We recommend a minimum distance to non-combustible material of 50 mm (F) for clea-
ning considerations.
It should always be possible to access the accessdoor.
Using not insulated smoke pipe, the minimum distance to combustible wall must be 225
mm from smoke pipe.
For the Installer
Finally before firing the stove for the first time a check should be made to ensure that the
assembly and stove installation has been satisfactory and that there are no leaks in any
seals in the appliance and appliance connections to the chimney.
Ensure that the appliance and chimney flue are functioning correctly before finally hand-
ing over to the user. If necessary read the later parts of this manual for guidance on care
required when first lighting.
Inform the user that the appliance has been commissioned and ready to use and give
instruction on the safe operation of the stove.
These Instructions must be left with the user and the user should be instructed to keep
them in a safe place.

Operating instructions
Please note that HETAS Ltd Appliance Approval only covers the use of dry sea-
soned wood logs on this appliance. HETAS Ltd Approval does not cover the use
of other fuels either alone or mixed with the wood logs, nor does it cover instruc-
tions for the use of other fuels.
Fuel
The stove is designed and approved in accordance with EN 13240 and NS 3058 for stok-
ing split, dried firewood. The firewood must have a water content of 15-22% and its max.
length should be the length of the combustion chamber minus 50-60 mm.
Stoking with wet firewood causes both soot, environmental pollution and bad fuel
economy. Freshly cut wood contains approx. 50-70% water and is thoroughly unsuitable
for stoking. Count min. 1 year of storage time for newly cut wood before using.
Wood with a diameter of more than 100 mm should be split. Regardless of wood size, it
should always have at least one surface area free of bark.
We do not recommend stoking with painted, laminated or impregnated wood, wood with
a synthetic surface, painted refuse wood, chipboard, plywood, domestic waste, paper bri-
quettes and pit coal, as this will produce malodorous smoke, which could be poisonous.
When firing with the above-mentioned items and amounts larger than those recommend-
ed, the stove is subjected to a larger amount of heat, which results in a higher chimney
temperature and lower efficiency. This can result in the stove and chimney becoming dam-
aged and would void the warranty.
The calorific value of the firewood is closely connected to the moisture level of the
firewood. Moist firewood has a low heat value. The more water the wood contains, the
more energy it takes for this water to vaporise, resulting in this energy being lost.
ONLY USE RECOMMENDED FUELS
The following table shows the calorific value of different types of wood, which have been
stored for 2 years, and which have a residual moisture of 15-17%.
Wood Kg dry wood pr. m
3
compared to beech/oak
Hornbeam 640 110%
Beech and oak 580 100%
Ash 570 98%
Maple 540 93%
Birch 510 88%
Mountain pine 480 83%
Fir 390 67%
Poplar 380 65%
1 kg of wood yields the same heat energy irrespective of wood type. 1 kg beech merely
takes up less space than 1 kg of fir.
ENGLISH RAIS - manual for Q-20
15
Drying and storage
Drying wood takes time: proper air drying takes approx. 2 years.
Here are some tips:
Store the wood sawn, split and stacked in an airy, sunny place, which is protected against
rain (the south side of the house is particularly suitable).
Store the firewood stacks at a hand’s breadth apart, as this ensures that the air flowing
through takes the moisture with it. Avoid covering the firewood stacks with plastic, as
this prevents the moisture from escaping. It is a good idea to bring the firewood into the
house 2-3 days before you need it.
Regulating the combustion air
All RAIS stoves are equipped with a one-handed operating lever for regulating the damp-
er. The stove-specific regulating mechanisms can be seen on the diagrams.
Primary air is the combustion air added to the primary combustion zone, i.e. the bed of
glowing embers. This air, which is cold, is only used in the lighting stage.
Secondary air is the air which is added in the gas combustion zone, i.e. air which contrib-
utes to the combustion of the pyrolysis gasses (preheated air, which is used for the cleaner
glass system and combustion). This air is sucked through the damper under the combus-
tion chamber and is pre-heated through the side channels and then emitted as hot scav-
enging air onto the glass. The hot air rinses the glass and keeps it soot-free.
The tertiary channel, which can be seen at the the top of the combustion chamber to-
wards the back, serves to combust the final gas residues.
By setting the interval between position 1 and 2, the energy content in the firewood is
used optimally, as there is oxygen for combustion and for the burning of the pyrolysis
gasses. When the flames are a clear yellow the damper has been set correctly. Finding the
correct position comes with time after you have used for stove for a while.
It is not recommended that you turn it down completely. A mistake commonly made is
shutting the damper too early because it feels too hot. This results in dark smoke ema-
nating from the chimney and in the calorific value of the firewood not being used to its
fullest.
Room ventilation and stoves
There must not be an extractor fan fitted in the same room as the stove as this can cause
the stove to emit smoke and fumes into the room.
The stove requires a permanent and adequate air supply in order for it to operate safely
and efficiently.
In accordance with current Building Regulations the installer may have fitted a permanent
air supply vent into the room in which the stove is installed to provide combustion air. This
air vent should not under any circumstances be shut off or sealed.
ENGLISH RAIS - manual for Q-20
16
Using the wood burning stove
Adjustment of the air damper - the damper has 3 settings
Position 1
The damper is almost closed meaning that there is a minimal air intake.
Position 2
Pull the lever until first click. This position gives full secondary air.
During normal stoking the lever is set between position 1 and 2.
When the flames are clear and yellow, the damper is set correcly, i.e. resulting in a slow/
optimal burning.
Position 3
Pull the lever until next click.
The air damper is completely open and gives full primary and secondary air. The position is
for the lighting stage and is not used under normal operation.
Control
If the ash is white and the walls in the combustion chamber sott-free after the stove has
been used, the air regulation was set correctly and the wood was sufficiently dry.
First usage
A careful start pays off. Start with a small fire, so that the wood burning stove can get
accustomed to the high temperature. This gives the best start and any damage is avoided.
Be aware that a strange but harmless odour and smoke concoction may emanate from
the surface of the stove, the first time you fire up. This is because the paint and materi-
als need to harden. The odour disappears quickly, but you should check the ventilation
and draught, if possible. See also, the IMPORTANT warning notice below about persistent
fumes.
During this process you must be careful not to touch the painted surfaces, and it is recom-
mended that you regularly open and close the door to prevent the door seal from sticking.
The stove may also produce “clicking noises” during heating and cooling, caused by the
large temperature differences which the material is subjected to.
Never use any type of liquid fuel for kindling or maintaining the fire. You could be at risk
of explosion.
The stove gets very hot when in use always wear protective gloves when tending the
stove.
If the stove has not been used for a while, follow the steps as if you were using it for the
first time.
ENGLISH RAIS - manual for Q-20

IMPORTANT - Warning Note!
Properly installed, operated and maintained this appliance will not emit fumes into the
dwelling. Occasional fumes from de-ashing and re-fuelling may occur. However, persistent
fume emission is potentially dangerous and must not be tolerated. If fume emission does
persist, the following immediate actions should be taken:
(a) Open doors and windows to ventilate room.
(b) Let the fire out or eject and safely dispose of fuel from the appliance.
(c) Check for flue or chimney blockage, and clean if required.
(d) Do not attempt to relight the fire until the cause of the fume emission has been iden-
tified and corrected. If necessary seek expert advice.
IMPORTANT - Warning Note!
Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is alight.
IMPORTANT - Safety advice!
When using the stove in situations where children, aged and/or infirm persons are pres-
ent a fireguard must be used to prevent accidental contact with the stove. The fireguard
should be manufactured in accordance with BS 8423:2002 (Replaces BS 6539).
ENGLISH RAIS - manual for Q-20

Lighting and fuelling
”Top-Down” lighting
Start by placing 2-3 pieces wood - approx. 1-1½ kilogram - in the bottom og the burning
chamber.
Place approx. 1kilogramof dyr firewood, split into kindling sticks., and a couple of alcohol
briquettes or similar (1-2).
Set the air damper to fully open position.
Light the fire and close the door (3-4).
When the flames are clear - after approx. 10-15 min - close the door completely (5).
Damper - see adjustment of air damper.
When the last flames are extinguished and there is a nice layer of embers (6), add 2-3
pieces of wood.
Close the door, close the door and once the fire has a good hold closed door completely.
Damper - see adjustment of air damper.
After approx. 5 min - or when the flames are clear and stable (7) - close the damper
gradually.
Note!!!
Keep an eye on the stove when lighting.
During operation the door should always remain shut.
ENGLISH RAIS - manual for Q-20
19
Cleaning and care
The wood burning stove and the chimney must be serviced by a chimney sweep twice a
year. During cleaning and care, the stove must be cold.
If the glass is sooty:
- Moisten a piece of paper or newspaper, dip it in the ash, and rub the sooty glass with
it.
- Now rub with a piece of paper and the glass will become clean.
- As an alternative you can use glass polish, which you can buy from you RAIS distributor.
Clean the exterior with a dry sponge.
Cleaning the combustion chamber:
Scrape/shovel the ash out and store it in a non-flammable container until it has cooled
down. You can dispose of ash with your normal household waste.
REMEMBER!! Never remove all the ashes from the combustion chamber - the wood will
burn at its best with a layer of ashes of approx. 20 mm.
Prolonged periodes of non-use:
If the stove is to be left unused for a prolonged period of time then it should be given
a thorough clean to remove ash and unburned fuel residues. To enable a good flow of
air through the appliance to reduce condensation and subsequent damage, leave the air
controls fully open.
Prior to a new heating season, it should be checked that the chimney and smoke gas con-
nector are not blocked.
ENGLISH RAIS - manual for Q-20

Cleaning of the flue ways
The smoke converter plate is lifted so that
the loop goes off, and pull forware.
The smoke converter plate ís now loose
and can be taken out gently.
Then remove the smoke conducter by
lifting it up from the two anchor bolts and
out.
Remove dirt and dust, and mount the parts
in reverse order
