CHECKING THE FLUE AND FIRE OPENING
Check that the chimney conforms to the required specifications as previously stated. Examine the condition
and carry out any remedial work including removing any debris from the base.
If the flue has been used for solid fuel it should be swept prior to the installation
Prior to installing the appliance a smoke test (using a smoke bomb) should be carried out to check that
satisfactory smoke clearance has been established.
If all the smoke is not drawn into the flue, pre-heat the flue with a blowtorch or similar and re-check. If there
is any uncertainty examine for the cause and, if necessary, seek expert advice.
No combustible material should be fitted inside the fireplace opening.
When installing this appliance against a dry lined (plasterboard) wall ensure that any void between the
plasterboard and the wall is sealed with a suitable non-combustible material (i.e. plaster or mortar).
SECTION EIGHT To Install the Appliance (installation instructions)
FITTING THE CLOSURE PLATE
The front of the fireplace should be flat over an area sufficient to ensure a good seal with the closure plate. The flat
surface should extend for a height equal to that of the closure plate plus 20mm and for a width equal to that of the
closure plate plus 40mm.
The closure plate has an opening at the bottom for the gas feed pipe. The gap between the pipe and this opening
should be sealed with tape after connection. The closure plate must be fitted and sealed to the fireplace opening
using a suitable heat resistant material.
GAS SUPPLY ROUTING
Use rigid or semi – rigid tube to connect the supply. Determine the gas supply pipe route to the appliance before
installing the fire.
MOUNTING THE APPLIANCE
The flue spigot must be capable of passing
through the closure plate with a minimum
clearance of 50mm between its open end
and the nearest obstruction. There must
also be a minimum clearance of 100mm
between the back of the closure plate and
the back of the catchment space. Place the
fire in position and mark the wall through
the holes in the fixing brackets LH and RH
of the firebox. Drill and plug the holes using
no 10 wall plugs. Place the fire in position
and secure with four no 10 x 2in Wood
screws.
