PREPARATION OF THE WALL

The appliance and flue pipes must be installed at right angles to the mounting wall. The appliance
itself should be installed vertically against a flat wall. Where an uneven wall surface is found,
appropriate action should be taken to ensure that the appliance is not stressed or does not distort
when installed.
Ensure that the floor that the appliance is mounted onto is flat.
The minimum height from the hearth to the centre of the flue is shown on fig. 5 below.
