Professional Installation Process
Our team of HETAS registered engineers approached this Pontrhydyfen stove instinstallation with meticulous attention to detail. The process began with the careful removal of the existing tiled hearth, followed by precise measurements for the new slate slab installation. We prepared a solid foundation by mixing and laying a cement base, ensuring perfect levelness for the slate hearth.
The critical phase involved completing a 5″ twin wall pro flue installation, which demanded precise measurements and expert execution. Our process included:
- Executing precise measurements and markings for the wall penetration
- Creating pilot holes followed by careful expansion to accommodate the flue system
- Installing the flat adaptor, adjustable pipe, and 45° bend with exacting precision
- Securing the exterior flue system with proper bracketing
Quality Assurance and Safety Measures
We concluded the installation with comprehensive safety checks, including:
- Thorough smoke and pressure testing of both fire and flue system
- Installation of CO alarm systems as per building regulations
- Detailed documentation with data plate fitting
- Practical demonstration of proper usage for the homeowner
Customer Satisfaction and Installation Results
Our commitment to excellence was reflected in the client’s response to the completed installation. “The attention to detail and professionalism shown throughout the installation process was exceptional,” shared our client. “From the initial consultation to the final demonstration, every step was handled with expertise and care.”
