STANDARD INSTALLATIONS- FLOOR TO CEILING ENCLOSURE: Inspect the house construction at the proposed installation position to verify that the flue shield (250mm diameter, plus 25mm clearance all around) can pass right up through the ceiling space without requiring the removal of essential roof or ceiling support beams.

Cement tiles or slate to the top of the floor protector. The part inside the enclosure will not be visible and therefore does not need complete coverage. It is necessary to fix the finishing layer only under the support rails in this area. The visible edges of the floor protector are best finished with wooden trim or tiles.

If necessary, replace the electrical connections at the rear of the fan switch (see installation manual) and ensure that the earth wire is connected to the post behind the Masport badge on the left fascia upright.

HEARTH REQUIREMENTS: An insulating floor protector (hearth) is required. The minimum requirement for an insulating floor protector (hearth) is one layer of 6mm thick ‘PROMATECT H’, SUPALUX, or ETERPAN LD (or simi- lar with a heat transition coefficient of 5 W/m³ K), and a layer of tiles or slate. This will give a thick- ness of approximately 14mm, and the extension from the face of the glass must be at least 441mm (or 440mm from fireplace surround) if the floor protector is flush with the surrounding heat sensitive material.
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION ALL ELECTRICAL WORK MUST BE CARRIED OUT BY A LICENCED REGISTERED ELECTRICIAN. THE FAN IS TO BE PERMANENTLY CONNECTED TO THE MAINS SUPPLY WITH NO PERIPHERAL CONTROLS. THIS MEANS, THERE MUST NOT BE A PLUG AND SOCKET ARRANGEMENT. IN ORDER TO COMPLY WITH THE NEW ZEALAND ELECTRICAL STANDARDS, AN ISOLATION SWITCH IS NEEDED FOR ISOLATING THE FAN FROM THE SOURCE OF POWER.

SLIM AND WIDE FASCIA ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION FOR LE4000 PROVINCIAL INSERTS If the fascia is not assembled use steps 1-4 to put together fascia components. Use steps 5 & 6 to attach fascia to firebox cabinet / casing. Lay the fascia panels flat, face down on something soft so they won’t scratch.
