This European Standard is applicable to residential freestanding hand fuelled intermittent burning slow heat release appliances having thermal storage capacity such that they can provide heat for an extended period of time after the fire has gone out. These slow heat release appliances may be supplied either as an assembled appliance or as a manufacturer’s pre-designed unit consisting of pre-fabricated components designed to be built on site in accordance with the manufacturer’s specified assembly instructions. One off installations are not included as they are not covered by the scope of this standard.
This European standard is also applicable to appliances which are designed for operating under room sealed conditions and which are intended to be installed into a chimney not serving any other appliances.
NOTE: Appliances which receive their combustion air from outside by means of a pipe system which is not air tight are not considered room sealed in accordance with this standard.
This European Standard specifies requirements relating to the design, manufacture, construction, safety and performance (efficiency and emissions) together with associated test methods and test fuels for residential slow heat release appliances fired by solid fuel (hereafter referred to as “appliances”), and provides instructions for them. Furthermore, it also gives provisions for evaluation of conformity i.e. initial type testing (ITT) and factory production control (FPC) and marking of these appliances.
These appliances provide heat by radiation and/or convection into the space where they are installed. Additionally if fitted with a boiler or other heat exchanger these appliances may also provide domestic hot water and/or central heating.
These appliances may burn either solid mineral fuels, peat briquettes, natural or manufactured wood logs or be multi-fuel in accordance with the appliance manufacturer’s instructions. Wood pellets which are specifically intended to be hand fuelled only may also be burned either on the existing appliance bottom grate or in a special basket arrangement which is placed by the user into the existing firebox.
This European Standard is not applicable to mechanically fed appliances. This European standard is also not applicable to appliances which are designed to be operated with ventilating systems which have pressure below (– 15 Pa) in relation to the outside atmosphere as measured in the room where the appliance is installed.
This European Standard covers also the NOx, OGC/total hydrocarbons and particulate matter emission test methods; however it does not contain any limit values for these emissions.
