This section provides step by step instructions for selecting
a location and preparing the site to install the fireplace into
the following:
Existing Fireplace
1. Make sure that the fire is located on a flat surface.
2. Seal all draughts and vents to prevent chimney debris
from falling onto the Fireplace Insert. Do not install into an
existing fireplace that is prone to dampness.
3. Remove the fire front panel by following the steps as
outlined in 'Lamp Replacement' sections.
4. Locate the 4 fixing holes, position the fire accordingly,
and firmly fix the appliance to the wall using the appropriate

New Support Structure Construction
When planning where to position your purpose built support
structure the following steps must be observed:
1. Place the fire in the desired location to see how it will
look in the room.
2. Mark the desired location for the new support structure
in the room and store the fire in a safe, dry and dust free
location.
3. Using timber studs to support the fire, devise and
construct a suitable means of supporting the product within
the wall partition and provide electrical power for the fire to
be HARD wired. For recommended sizes of height, width
and depth of opening for recess and hole fixing dimensions
for each model - see Table 1 and Fig. 5a.
4. When the structure is complete, remove the front panel
of the fire by following the steps as outlined in 'Lamp
Replacement' sections.
