9. CONVECTION BOX INSTALLATION

9.1

Method 1- Front Fixing to Fireplace Surround

1. Make sure that the fireplace front surround
area is sound enough to take the rawlplugs and
woodscrews. If necessary, make sound with a
suitable cement.
2. Place the convector box centrally in the
fireplace in the position in which it is to be
permanently installed. If a concealed connection
is being used, insert the convector box into the
fireplace feeding the supply pipe through the
pierced hole in the rear seal.
3. Mark the fireplace front surround through the
Figure 13. Front Fixing
four fixing holes in the side
flanges of the convector box.
See figure 13.
4. Remove the convector
box. Drill four holes in the
fireplace front surround at
the marked positions using a
no.12 masonry drill.
5. Insert a rawlplug into each
hole.
6. Place the convector box
back in position in the
Figure 14. Eyebolt Positions
fireplace.
7. Fit a woodscrew through each hole in the convector box flanges and tighten to seal
the box to the fireplace surround.

9.2 Method 2 - Cable Retention

1. Make sure that the relevant areas at the fireplace back are sound enough to take the
eyebolts. If these areas have deteriorated due to prolonged use they should be made
sound with a suitable cement.
2. Drill four holes in the rear wall of the fireplace for the eyebolt plugs. The holes
should be drilled within the range of positions shown in figure 14 using a no.12
masonry drill. The holes should be equidistant each side of the centre line of the
fireplace to ensure that the appliance finishes centrally in the opening when tension is
applied to the cables.
3. Insert a fibre plug into each hole. Use the fibre plugs supplied with this appliance -
