1. Prepare site
Ensure the intended enclosure
meets the dimension
requirements, and that the gas
and electrical supplies have been
prepared in accordance with the
information stated on page 7.
2. Unpack heater engine
The heater engine is supplied in
one carton. Check for damage,
and ensure you have the correct
gas type before starting. Do not
install if any damage is evident.
3. Prepare heater engine
Attach the adhesive backed foam
sealing strip (supplied) to the
rear face of the front assembly
mounting panel at approximately
20 mm from the top edge.
The foam strip is intended to form
a seal between the heater and the
fireplace brickwork. If an adequate
seal cannot be formed then
another means of sealing must
be used (e.g. non-combustible
insulation or heat resistant silicon).
Remove, but do not discard the
gas/electrical plate (five screws).
4. Position the heater engine
Place the heater engine in front
of the fireplace enclosure. Use a
panel of the cardboard packaging
underneath the heater to help
prevent damage to the flooring.
5. Connect the electrical supply
Plug in the 3-pin connector if
electrical connection is inside the
fireplace.
6. Insert heater into fireplace
Carefully move the heater into the
fireplace ensuring the gas supply
pipe and fittings feed into the rear
access hole.
7. Connect gas
Connect gas supply pipe and
fittings to the gas control valve
inlet and tighten.
8. Leak test
Turn the gas on and using a soapy
solution, leak test all appliance
connections. If a leak is present
bubbles will form at the leak point.
When finished remove any residue
with a rag. Prevent any soapy
solution coming into contact with
electrical components.
9. Secure heater
Fasten the heater to the masonry
using appropriate fasteners
(not supplied). There are three
holes across the top of the front
assembly mounting panel and side
panels.
10. Complete installation
Refer to instructions on page 16.
