I have documented it as follows!:

Stupid question wont the heat from the flue pipe melt the perspex roof? even if its twin wall? or wont it get that hot? looks good btw

[Stubby]

I would want to get the stack above the apex . Down droughts and all that ...

My brother in law did that, condensation on the glass was an issue if I recall.

 

I might be wrong though.

Was told that I had to go 1.5m above the gutter. Seems to work ok.

the perspex roof does not touch the chimney, there is about 25mm gap all round. Have had the stove really hot, with no ill effect. Installed the external air vent yesterday, just the c02 monitor then get it signed off.

External air source should solve that

you may find whoever signs it off says the single wall flue is too close to the window frame it should be 3 times the diameter

and possibly the gap between the flue and the plastic roof on the flue box there will be a product designation code ending with something like G60 or G 50 this is how many mm it should be from a comustible

Check the combustible clearance from the outside of the flue pipe with the flue manufacturer ( Stovax) or the company you bought it from, if it was Poujoulat ( which it isn't it) it looks a bit close, its one of the things whoever is signing it off will check. You should be able to get a cover plate to fix to the pipe to cover the air gap around the pipe on the inside, it will need to be elliptical as your roof slopes. Just tidies it up. The window frame is maybe a shade close, minimum combustible clearance above the stove from memory is 375 mm as it is from the flue pipe if 125mm, a 150mm flue outlet pipe requires 450mm of clearance as nifty steve advised.

 

Ecoburn Plus 11 is a good stove, we are installing one next week, did a Plus 9 today.
