Method 1- Front fixing to fireplace surround.
1. Make sure that the fireplace front surround area is
sound enough to take the fibre plugs and woodscrews. If
necessary, make sound with a suitable cement.
2. Place the hotbox centrally in the fireplace in the
position in which it is to be permanently installed. If a
concealed connection is being used, insert the hotbox
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 hotbox (See figure
13).
4. Remove the hotbox. Drill four holes in the fireplace
front surround at the marked positions using a no.12
masonry drill.
5. Insert a fibre plug into
each hole.
6. Place the hotbox back in
position in the fireplace.
7. Fit a woodscrew through
each hole in the hotbox
flanges and tighten to seal
the box to the fireplace
surround.
9.2 Method 2 - Cable
retention.
1. Make sure that the
relevant areas at the fireplace back are sound enough to take
the eyebolts. If these areas have deteriorated due to
prolonged use they should be made sound with a 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 14 using a no.12 masonry drill.
The holes should be equidistant each side of the centre line
of the fireplace to ensure that the appliance finishes centrally
in the opening when tension is applied to the cables.
