INFINITY 880 BF Installation Instructions
SECTION SEVEN Siting the Appliance Continued
Please note with early cavity wall design prior to 1970. The minimum depth requirement may well be
difficult to obtain. This could result in the need for the fire box to be spaced further from the internal
surface of the plaster and to achieve this larger rebated surround maybe necessary.
Ensure that gas supply is suitably sited
Check with the supplier or manufacturer
that the surround meets 150
rating (attention should especially be given
to man made materials such as resin).
When installing in a timber framed
dwelling reference must be made to the
specific installation requirements stated in
Clearance to Shelf
Minimum clearance from hearth or base of
opening to underside of combustible shelf should
be 1040mm provided the shelf depth is 75mm
(3"). This gives a minimum clearance above the
appliance of 140mm. For a shelf of 150mm (6")
the minimum height above the hearth or base of
opening must be 1120mm. This will give a
minimum clearance above the appliance of
220mm.
Clearance to Sides of Fire
Minimum width between vertical sides of combustible surround should not be less than 875 mm provided fire
is central to the surround and sides do not project more than 150 mm. When vertical side forward projection is
increased by 12.5 mm add 50 mm to inside width of surround.
*Please note - Appropriate measures should be taken when installing into a working flue
system i.e. out through an existing chimney *

SECTION EIGHT Preparing the Appliance for Installation

Carefully unpack the appliance from the carton and check the contents.
Lift away the Box of ceramics, glass panel and Fire frame components.
Remove the refractory components from the inside of the packaging.
The appliance is now ready for installation.
INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE INTO CAVITY WALL
constructed of non-combustible materials and that the flue position meets the requirements
previously described in Section 8.
Mark a vertical line on the wall at the intended centre of the appliance up from the horizontal line
for a height of 887mm.
If insetting into the wall mark the position for a lintel (Minimum 1040mm) above the top horizontal
line.
Using a long masonry drill, make one pilot holes completely through the wall. Ensure the holes
are drilled accurately at the centres and square to the wall both horizontally and vertically at the
cross points previously marked.
If insetting into the wall proceed as follows: Cut out the brickwork of the inner skin of the cavity
wall for the lintel, and fix the lintel.
Cut out the brickwork under the lintel, between the two outside vertical lines into the cavity.
Ensure the cutout width is square and try the appliance into the opening.
