1 Introduction Note: these instructions should be read carefully and retained for future reference. Please leave these instructions with the user. There are two models of the Hestia: • Hestia with steel plated interior • Hestia Nostalgic with brick lining This manual covers both models.
2 Safety and general information Before installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions (identification of the type of gas and pressure) and the adjustment of the appliance are compatible. This gas appliance is factory set and can not be adjusted. This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from asbestos or any asbestos related products.
The appliance is of the type C11/C31. The appliance will need to be supplied with the approved Faber flue pipes and terminal, it is not possible to supply your own. The minimum effective height of the flue system must be 1 meter.
Determine with the help of appendix A, B and C if the desired routing is possible. To establish this you will need to calculate: The effective height (this is the real difference in height between the upper side of the appliance and the terminal) The total horizontal extension.
4 Instruction for Installation Gas Connection Installation pipes should be in accordance with BS 6891. Pipe work from the meter to the appliance must be of adequate size. The complete installation including the meter must be tested for soundness and purged as described in the above code.
False Chimney Brest without surround Remove the knock-outs in the DC-box and place vertically the metal studs in the knock-outs Build the false chimney using Promatect The measure in the clear of the false chimney brest has to be 670x782 (width x height).

No further adjustment is necessary. Always check the inlet pressure and burner pressure: •...
6 Handing over (final check and customer briefing) Instruct the customer on the full operation of the appliance and the remote control, including replacement of batteries Advise the customer how to clean the appliance including the glass Hand over these instructions including the user guide to the consumer Recommend that the appliance should be serviced by a competent person at least once a year 7 Servicing...
Attention: Before placing the glass: check the glass sealing rope is in good condition and makes an effective seal. Be sure that there are no fingerprints on the glass. It is not possible to remove those prints after you burn the appliance for a while (they are burnt in). Place the glass in front of the appliance and fix the glass frame or use the glass clamps.
