The following instructions are for installation into timber frame. The method of installation is the same for
New Masonry Block. See Masonry Block Drawing.
Ventilation
Ventilation to the room that houses the fi re must meet the requirements of NZS5261
Framing Details
Prior to installation, timber framing needs to be provided to suit the selected Real Fire. See installation drawing.
Hearth
A non combustible Hearth must be provided in front of the Real Fire unless the fl ooring in front of the fi re is non
combustible. The minimum size is 300mm out from the fi re and 150mm each side wider than the fi re.
Height of re from oor
It is important to confi rm the height the fi re is to be installed from the fl oor level. This is usually the hearth height.
For example if the hearth is 100mm high then the fi re needs to be installed 100mm high, note-some elevated
installations specify the fi re higher than the hearth. Once the height is confi rmed a platform needs to be built to
support the fi rebox. The platform can be of timber construction. It needs to be sturdy and level.
