  • Page 4: Conditions Of Installation

    INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS CONDITIONS OF INSTALLATION It is the law that all gas appliances are installed only by a CORGI Registered Installer, in accordance with these installation instructions and the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 as amended. Failure to install appliances correctly could lead to prosecution.
  • Page 5: Fireplace / Surround Suitability

    FIREPLACE / SURROUND SUITABILITY The fire must only be installed on a hearth it must not be installed directly onto carpet or other combustible floor materials. The fire is suitable for fitting to non-combustible fire place surrounds and propri- etary fire place surrounds with a temperature rating of at least 150 o c. If a heating appliance is fitted directly against a wall without the use of a fire surround or fire place all combustible material must be removed from behind the trim.
  • Page 6: Fire Place Opening / Catchment Space

    There must be no leakage of smoke through the structure of the chimney during or after the smoke pellet test and it is important to check inside upstairs rooms adjacent to the chimney / flue. Check the chimney pot / terminal and general condition of the brickwork or masonry.
  • Page 7 Table A - Installation Depth Requirements for a Flavel Warwick being installed into a brick built chimney, requiring 12.0 litres of debris collection volume (see fig. 2 below) Opening Width (mm) Minimum Depth Required (mm) 330 (minimum opening width) 430 (maximum opening width) For example, if the appliance was to be fitted into a 400mm wide opening, the depth required would be 155mm.
  • Page 8: Fitting To Chair Bricks

    1.7 FITTING TO FIREPLACES WITH EXISTING CHAIRBRICKS AND CONVENTIONAL BRICKBUILT CHIMNEYS This appliance is suitable for use in fireplaces fitted with an existing chairbrick without the need for removal of the chairbrick, providing the minimum depth of the fireplace exceeds 190mm. If the depth is less than 190mm then the spacer (optional) must be used to give a minimum clearance from the rear of the fire to the rear of the chairbrick of at least 90mm to allow sufficient space for the collec- tion of debris which may fall down the chimney.
  • Page 9: Hearths

    1.10 HEARTHS This appliance must only be installed on to a concrete or non-combustible hearth. The hearth material must be a minimum thickness of 13mm with the top surface at least 50mm above the floor. The hearth must be fitted symmetrically about the fire opening and have a minimum width of 760mm and a minimum projection of 300mm forwards from the fire opening.

    SECTION 2 INSTALLATION OF FIRE UNPACKING THE FIRE Carefully lift the fire out of the carton. Remove the loose item packaging carefully from the front of the appliance. Check the contents as listed :- Packing Check List 1off Fire box / burner assembly 1off Boxed hard ceramic base, ceramic rail and fire bed and 22 synthetic coals...
  • Page 11 For manual control models proceed as follows :- Remove the trim. Remove the burner heat shield from the front of the fire box to allow access to the burner. See fig. 3 below. Fig. 3 Ensure that the hearth is protected from damage and carefully lift the fire box into the fire opening, then slide it back into position.
  • Page 12 Continue for all models Whilst the fire box is still in position, decide which side the gas supply is to enter the fire from. If concealed pipe work is required plan the pipe run to enter the fire box through one of the openings in the sides of the fire box below the fuelbed sup- port panel and connect to the isolating / inlet elbow.
  • Page 13 The preferred method of fixing which is suitable for almost all situations is the cable fixing method which is described in the following section in detail. If the 2” black spacer is used, the fire may be secured using the cable method as described below, or alternatively, in installations where the cable method is not suitable (eg.
  • Page 14 Thread a tensioning screw over each of the cables and ensure that the tensioning nut is screwed fully up against the hexagon shoulder of the tensioning screw (this provides maximum travel for the tensioning nut). Fit a screwed nipple on to each of the cables and pull hand tight up against the tensioning screw, then secure each nipple with a flat bladed screwdriver.
  • Page 15 Refit the front burner heat shield to the sides of the fire box (2 Screws) and secure the trim to the fire using the magnets provided. Before making the final gas connection, thoroughly purge the gas supply pipework to remove all foreign matter, otherwise serious damage may be caused to the gas control valve on the fire.
  • Page 16: Gas Soundness And Burner Pressure

    GAS SOUNDNESS AND INLET PRESSURE Remove the pressure test point screw from the inlet elbow and fit a manometer. Turn on the main gas supply and carry out a gas soundness test. Depress the control knob and turn anti-clockwise to the position marked pilot.
  • Page 17: Assembling Fuel Bed And Commissioning

    SECTION 3 ASSEMBLING FUEL BED AND COMMISSIONING ASSEMBLING THE CERAMICS AND FUEL BED Place the insulation mat centrally on to the fuelbed support then place the ribbed hard ceramic fuelbed base on top of the mat and pull both fully forwards to the burner. Make sure that the fuelbed base is located centrally in the fire box.
  • Page 18 Position upper fuelbed component on to the locating pegs on the top of the fuelbed base, ensuring that it is correctly seated as shown below in fig. 12 Fig. 12 Fit the two parts of the ceramic front coal support on to the front support bracket, ensuring they are correctly located, as shown below in fig.
  • Page 19 Select seven of the coals and arrange along the front ceramic coal support using the shallow depressions as guidance for the coal position. See fig. 14 below Fig. 14 Select the four coals and arrange along the front of the fuelbed, directly behind the front row of coals.
  • Page 20 Select five of the coals and arrange along the fuelbed behind the second row of coals spacing them evenly and positioning them as shown below in fig. 16. Fig. 16 Select the remaining four coals and position to fill the gaps left at the top rear of the fuelbed.
  • Page 21: Lighting The Appliance

    The exact position and fit of the coals may be finely adjusted to give the most pleasing and random appearance. Warning : Use only the coals supplied with the fire. When replacing the coals remove the old coals and discard them. Fit a complete set of coals of the correct type.
  • Page 22: Checking For Clearance Of Combustion

    CHECKING FOR CLEARANCE OF COMBUSTION PRODUCTS Close all doors and windows in the room. Light the fire and allow to run for approximately 5 minutes on high position. After approximately 5 minutes hold a smoke match just inside and below the centre of the lower front edge of the top of the fire. (It is recommended that a suitable smoke match holder is used when check ing for clearance of combustion products).
  • Page 23: Maintenance

    Servicing Notes Servicing should be carried out annually by a competent person such as a CORGI registered engineer. This is a condition of the Flavel Fires guarantee schemes. The service should include visually checking the chimney and fire opening for accumulations of debris and a smoke test to check for a positive up-draught in the chimney.
