GB IE 8.2 GAS SUPPLY ROUTES The gas supply may enter the appliance across the hearth or through the ‘knock outs’ provided in the rear of the firebox. Gas pipes should not be buried or routed through walls without being protected by conduit or sleeving. An isolation tap must be included in the gas connection pipe to facilitate servicing.
GB IE 8.6 FLUE PREPARATION When all the preparation work has been completed for whichever method of installation has been chosen, and with the fire sur- round fitted, take the appliance and slide the round flue section over the spigot on the rear of the fire. Protect any decorative hearth with a dust sheet or similar, place the appliance in position with the flue section protruding through the wall(s) to the out- side.
GB IE 8.9 GAS CONNECTION Note : A separate isolation device must be incorporated into the incoming gas supply to facilitate servicing. Temporarily fit the burner tray and ensure a suitable gas route can be achieved. If using an across hearth connection, ensure the decorative fireframe and firefront will clear the supply route.
