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. It is in your own interest and that of safety to comply with the law. The installation must also be
in accordance with all relevant parts of the Local and National Building Regulations where appropriate, the Building
Regulations (Scotland Consolidation) issued by the Scottish Development Department, and all applicable requirements of
the British & Irish Standard Code of Practice, and any other rules in force.
Section 3
Flue & Chimney Suitability
This appliance is designed for use with conventional brick built or lined chimneys and fabricated flues. It is also suitable for
use with pre-cast flue blocks conforming to B.S. EN 1858 and metal flue boxes conforming to BS 715. All flues must
conform to the following minimum dimensions.
Minimum diameter of circular flues 125 mm
Section 4
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 proprietary 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. Soft wall coverings such as blown vinyl, wall paper etc. could be affected
by the rising hot air and scorching and/or discoloration may result. Due consideration should be made to this when
installing or decorating.
Section 5
Shelf Position
The fire may be fitted below a combustible shelf providing there is a minimum distance of 200mm above the top of the fire
and the shelf does not project more than 150mm. If the shelf overhangs more than 150mm the distance between the fire
and the shelf must be increased by 15mm for every 25mm of additional overhang over 150mm.
Section 6
Inspection of the Flue or Chimney
Before commencing installation, a flue or chimney should be inspected to ensure that all the following conditions are
satisfied.
a) Check that the chimney / flue only serves one fire place and is clear of any obstruction. Any dampers or register
plates must be removed or locked in the open position.
b) Brick/stone built chimneys or any chimney or flue which has been used for an appliance burning fuel other than gas
must be thoroughly swept. The base of the chimney / flue must also be thoroughly cleared of debris etc.
c)
Any under-floor air supply to the fire place must be completely sealed off.
d) Ensure that the inside of the chimney / flue is in good condition along it's length and check that there is no leakage of
smoke through the structure of the chimney during and after the smoke pellet test. With pre-cast flues it is especial
ly important to check the inside of the flue for extruded cement / sealant protruding from the joints between
the flue blocks. If present, these should be removed by rodding the flue before proceeding with the
installation.
e) Using a smoke pellet, check that there is an up-draught in the chimney / flue and that the smoke can be seen
issuing from the terminal / chimney pot outside.
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. If the chimney or flue is in poor condition or if there is no
up-draught do not proceed with the installation. If there is a history of down-draught conditions with the chimney / flue,
