1. INTRODUCTION
Most building regulatory Authorities in Australia require any
wood heater installation to comply with Installation Standard
AS/NZS 2918:2001. Different states and councils may have
varying regulations. Check local building regulations before
installing the appliance.
All Nectre wood heaters have been tested to ensure that they
will meet the appropriate safety Standard requirements if the
instructions in this manual are followed. As the safety and
emissions performance can be affected by altering the
appliance, no modifications are allowed without written
permission from the manufacturer.
WE RECOMMEND THAT THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR
NECTRE WOOD HEATER BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED
INSTALLER.
WARNING: THE APPLIANCE AND FLUE SYSTEM SHALL BE
INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AS/NZS 2918:2001 AND
THE APPROPRIATE REQUIREMENTS OF THE RELEVANT
BUILDING CODE OR CODES.
ANY MODIFICATION OF THE APPLIANCE THAT HAS NOT
BEEN APPROVED IN WRITING BY THE TESTING AUTHORITY
IS CONSIDERED TO BE IN BREACH OF THE APPROVAL
GRANTED FOR COMPLIANCE WITH AS/NZS 4012 & AS/NZS
4013.
CAUTION: MIXING OF APPLIANCE OR FLUE-SYSTEM
COMPONENTS FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES OR MODIFYING
THE DIMENSIONAL SPECIFICATION OF COMPONENTS MAY
RESULT IN HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. WHERE SUCH ACTION
IS CONSIDERED, THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE
CONSULTED IN THE FIRST INSTANCE.
CAUTION: CRACKED AND BROKEN COMPONENTS, EG. GLASS
PANELS OR CERAMIC TILES, MAY RENDER THE INSTALLATION

First review the necessary clearances specified below before

Also check the practicability of installing the flue system in
relation to any obstructing roof beams before positioning
the heater.
These clearance distances can only be reduced if the
surrounding walls are made of non-combustible material,
eg. Stone, brick, or concrete. If non-combustible material,
distance can be reduced to 100 mm. Alternatively, shielding
of the wall(s) can reduce clearances (refer to next section
