Assembly and Installation of your Pellet Fire (Iris Plus & Little models)
WARNING!
•
ALL VENT PIPE JOINTS MUST BE RIVETED AND
SEALED WITH HIGH TEMPERATURE SILICONE.
DO NOT USE FIRE CEMENT!
CAUTION!
•
MIXING OF APPLIANCE OR FLUE SYSTEM
COMPONENTS FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES
OR MODIFYING THE DIMENSIONAL
SPECIFICATION OF COMPONENTS MAY
RESULT IN HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS.
WHERE SUCH ACTION IS CONSIDERED, THE
MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE CONSULTED IN
THE FIRST INSTANCE.
Positioning the pellet fire
1
If possible position the fire in a room that is centrally
located in the home and direct the fire so that it blows hot
air into the living area first then forces the air out into the
rest of the house.
Avoid positioning the fire close to your TV or sitting area
so as not to be distracted by any fan noise. Unlike a
conventional wood fire you do not need to be close to
a pellet fire; they act more like central heating systems
pushing warm air throughout the house.
2
Check clearances to combustible materials, refer to chart
and drawings on page 9.
3
Ensure a power outlet is within 1.5 metres.
4
Check the vent pipe will clear structural beams, trusses or
studs.
5
Check that curtains cannot come in contact with the pellet
fire.
6
Any unshielded vent pipe must have 75mm clearance to
combustibles.
7
Ensure the area where the floor protector will sit is level,
shim as required, final leveling can be done with the
adjustable feet on the pellet fire.
If the vent pipe is to be installed through the ceiling, use
the Metro Ceiling Vent Kit. Insert the condensation tee into
the 80mm outlet at the rear of the pellet fire. Assemble
and fit the vent system to the pellet fire as per instructions
supplied with the vent kit.
If the vent is to exit through the rear wall use the Metro
Through Wall Vent Kit, the condensation tee is located
outside.

Before assembling the soap stone or ceramic side
panels (Iris Plus only) position the pellet fire in the desired
location, check that the pellet fire and floor protector have
adequate clearances to combustible material and that the
vent system will be clear of ceiling joists, trusses etc.

Once you are satisfied you have the pellet fire in its final
position, secure it to the floor using suitable anchors. Drill
through the floor protector and into the floor using the two
8mm holes provided at the centre of the pellet fire base.
Then proceed as follows in the order shown (Iris Plus only):
•
Remove the 8 screws found under the top tiles (14) and
the 2 rear panel screws;
•
Lift the top up 2-3 cm (15) and move it slightly to the right,
enough to insert the two side tiles (11) into the aluminium
bars (12-13); Take care not to damage the data cable on
the rear display;
•
Move the top (15) to the left, enough to insert the two side
tiles (11) into the aluminium bars (10-13);
•
Put the top (15) back in the middle and replace the
previously removed screws;
•
Put the two upper tiles (14) in place. Lastly, open the
door, and fasten the front ceramic insert (75) with silicon
to the cover plate (74).
If combustion air is drawn from outside the home, ensure that
a suitable grill and wind protector is fitted as wind gusts will
upset the combustion sensors, the Metro Direct Vent Kits are
suitable for this.
Check for compatibility with other devices
The Pellet Fire must NOT be installed in the same room as
extractor fans or any other devices that could reduce the
pressure in the room.
