DECORATIVE SURROUND FRAMING DIMENSIONS
The Constellation Flame Fire must be placed on a solid hearth placed under the
appliance. This hearth must be capable of supporting the appliance. Material such as
cement sheet or medium density fibreboard are suitable examples. The height of this
NOTE
hearth must be added to any framing dimensions shown.
For successful installation the framing dimensions must be strictly adhered to.

GAS SUPPLY
The gas supply to the appliance must be positioned as shown in
the framing dimensions and should terminate 145 mm back from
the front face of the appliance.
Gas pipe sizing must consider the gas input to this appliance as
well as all other gas appliances in the premises. The gas meter
and regulator must be specified for the total gas rate. An approved
sizing chart such as the one in AS 5601 should be used.
Purging the Gas Supply
All foreign materials such as filings must be purged from the gas
supply, as they may cause the gas control valve to malfunction.
FLUE REQUIREMENTS
The Constellation Flame Fire flue system is a 'twin wall flue'
system as defined in AS 5601 with a 200 mm inner wall diameter
and 250 mm outer wall diameter. As such, the clearance between
the outer wall and combustible surfaces must be a minimum of 25
mm to conform with the requirements of AS 5601.
There is no limit to the height of the flue, however, the vertical
height from the appliance flue spigot to the 'offset' (if used) must
be at least 1.2 metres.
Only one 'offset' can be used (2 x 45 degree bends).
The minimum vertical flue height must be at least 3.6 m.
