scope:

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.
