6.4.2 Wall mounting

(See figure 11).
The closure plate must be fitted
and sealed to the hearth and
fireplace opening using a suitable
heat resistant material.
If necessary cut the closure plate
but make sure that it overlaps the
fireplace opening sufficiently to
allow satisfactory sealing.
The bottom of the appliance must
be at least 100mm above any
carpet or other floor covering. To
achieve this, the bottom of the
flue spigot opening must be at
least 565mm above the finished
floor covering.

closure plate fitted by applying a
lighted match or smoke match to the flue spigot opening in the closure plate and
observe the smoke. If there is a definite flow continue with the installation. If not
check the fitting of the closure plate. The fireplace flue pull check described in section
6.3 should have confirmed that the fireplace itself is satisfactory.

7. APPLIANCE INSTALLATION

7.1 Installing to a hearth.

1. Place the fire centrally on the hearth
making sure that the spigot lines up with the
spigot hole in the closure plate. Gently slide
the appliance into place being careful not
to scratch the hearth. The spigot must
enter the closure plate to a depth of at least
15mm.
2. Level the fire by loosening the lock nuts
and turning the levelling screws in the feet
up or down as required while they bear on
the hearth. When the fire is level and
square to the wall, retighten the lock nuts.
