10. CONVECTION BOX INSTALLATION

10.1 Method 1- Front fixing to fireplace surround.

1. Make sure that the fireplace front surround area is
sound enough to take the fibre / wooden plugs and
wood screws. If necessary, make sound with suitable
cement.
2. Place the convection box centrally in the fireplace
in the position in which it is to be permanently
installed. If a concealed connection is being used,
insert the convection box into the fireplace feeding
the supply pipe through the pierced hole in the
grommet.
3. Mark the fireplace front surround through the four
fixing holes in the side flanges of the convection box

seal the box to the fireplace surround.

10.2 Method 2 - Cable retention.

1. Make sure that the relevant areas at the fireplace back and floor are sound enough

screws. If these areas have
deteriorated due to prolonged
use they should be made
sound with suitable cement.
2. Drill four holes in the rear
wall of the fireplace for the
eyebolt plugs. The holes
should be drilled within the
range of positions shown in
figure 19 using a suitably
sized masonry drill for the
fibre / wooden plugs
supplied. The holes should
