• The Firebox body that sits inside the wall cavity must be insulated with a layer of insulation
material such as rock wool or ceramic blanket that can handle continuous exposure of 300 ℃.
The entire Firebox body must be isolated from any combustible material inside the wall cavity.
The insulation must be securely fixed onto the body of the Firebox. No combustible materials
may touch the surface of the Firebox body.
• Make sure that the Firebox is installed no closer than 1m (40 inch) from any combustible items
such as furniture, curtains, etc. See image on the next page in this section. This excludes the
actual structure in which the Firebox is placed if the Firebox is thermally insulated. The floor
below the Firebox, inside the wall cavity, must be insulated and cannot be made from
combustible material. Wooden floors, plastic based flooring, carpets etc. are not allowed.
• When installing into old hearths or new structures ensure that you create ventilation openings
above and below the position of the Fireplace in the old hearth or new structure.
• Take care when placing valuable items such as artwork, electronic devices, etc. above the
Firebox as the hot air that rises from the flame may damage such items.
• Position the Firebox where it will not be affected by any breeze or draft, as this may affect the
behaviour of the flame in an unpredictable manner.
• Never cover the fascia opening of the Firebox at any time.
• It is advisable to consider children and pets when selecting a position to install the Firebox.
Ensure that the fire is never left unattended.
• Install a vent above and below the Firebox to allow for ventilation should a spill occur.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE FOR COMMERCIAL & SLIMLINE FIREBOXES:
The internal areas of the Firebox can change in appearance with time and usage. This is
to be considered normal wear and tear and does not constitute a product flaw or fault.
We recommend cleaning the internal surfaces with a moist lint-free cloth.
ALWAYS KEEP HANDY A CLASS ABE FIRE EXTINGUISHER:
Class ABE fire extinguishers are used to put out fires that are caused by combustible liquids. Class
ABE fire extinguishers quell the flames by expelling a dry chemical powder or foam with a nitrogen
propellant. The specific chemical can vary depending on the make or model. Water will not
extinguish this flame.
