3.0 INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

If the appliance is to be sited near a disused or unserviceable fireplace served by a natural draught flue then the old flue must be
sealed off. It will be necessary to ventilate the old flue to prevent condensation and dampness forming, however any air vent used to
ventilate the old flue must not be sited within 500mm of this appliance. If the flue can be ventilated to the outside of the building
then this is usually the best solution. If in doubt then advice should be sought from a local building control officer. The appliance is
designed to be wall mounted. If the appliance is to be mounted on a newly fabricated area of wall that also serves the purpose of
sealing off the old flue then it is very important that there are no holes, gaps or otherwise in this wall that will allow draughts from
the old flue to enter the room, especially directly behind the appliance. Such draughts could affect the performance of the ODS sys-
tem and result in nuisance cutting out, for example. If the gas supply pipe is to enter the appliance from the rear, i.e. emerge from
the wall behind the appliance, then any hole in the wall from which the pipe emerges must be tightly sealed. Propane/LPG models
must not be installed in cellars, basements or any room which is completely below ground level.

3.1 ROOM SIZING

All Models : The room size MUST be a minimum of 23m
ensure the correct operation of the fire. This volume may include adjacent spaces but these spaces must not be separated by a
door. To calculate a room size in cubic metres (m

wall-hung. Do not recess any part
of the appliance into the wall.
dance with the current edition of BSEN 50292, and the user must be briefed regarding the use and maintenance of such a device.
The appliance is designed to be versatile, and as such will operate correctly when exposed to normal gentle draughts experienced with-
in the home. It is not recommended, however that the appliance be installed in areas where it is likely to be directly exposed to persist-
ent strong draughts, that may be generated by outside doors, windows, air vents, air conditioning units, extractor fans, ceiling fans etc. See
section 4.1 for more information on ventilation.
Clearances to non-combustible materials
Non combustible surfaces are defined as brick, metal, marble, concrete etc. and also a number of man-made materials impervious
to flame. If in doubt refer to the material manufacturer for further information before proceeding with installation.
Clearances to the sides of the appliance are 100mm (4"). Clearance to the front of the appliance is 500mm (20").
The back of the appliance may be installed directly onto a non-combustible wall, providing the area behind the appliance is flat
and does not interfere with the various vent holes in the back panel of the appliance. A non combustible shelf of any depth may
be positioned above the appliance provided it is no closer than 400mm (16") from the top of the appliance glass panel and the
wall above the appliance is non combustible. The appliance must not be positioned vertically within 60mm (2.4") of a solid floor
(i.e. wood or stone) or hearth. This dimension is measured vertically to the bottom of the appliance firebox.
Clearances to combustible materials
Combustible materials are defined as wood, fabrics, or other materials likely to combust if exposed to flame. Generally, any mate-
rial, which is likely to discolour, melt or misshape when exposed to moderate heat, should be considered as a combustible mate-
rial or surface. Clearance to the sides of the appliance are 100mm (4") but curtains, drapes and other fabrics are not permitted
within a distance of 500mm (20") of the appliance sides. No such materials are permitted directly above the appliance regardless
of distance.

This appliance may be installed in any room in the home except bathrooms. In accor-
dance with BS5871 part 4, installation in bedrooms is permitted. If the appliance is to
be installed in a bedroom then an electronic carbon monoxide detector complying with
the current edition of BSEN 50291 must be installed in the same room as the appli-
ance. For maximum safety it is recommended that such device is continuously (mains)
powered and arranged in such a way that the gas supply to the appliance is isolated in
the event of an alarm. The selection and installation of such device shall be in accor-
