8.0 PREPARING THE APPLIANCE

The appliance must be prepared for
installation by removing the front
decorative frame, removing the selected
gas inlet 'knock-out', and assembling and
fitting the rear frame to the appliance.
These steps are carried out as follows:
1. The decorative fire frame assembly
comprises of three parts, the front frame,
the rear frame and the outlet grille.
Remove the front frame retaining screws
(positions shown in figure 1) from the side
of the firebox and carefully remove the
front frame from the appliance. Remove
the wall mouting plate from the appliance
by removal of the two wingnuts located in
the lower inner secion of the firebox.
2. Gas connection :The heater gas inlet
connection is 3/8" NPT at the regulator,
located below the burner, in the right
hand side of the heater. There are four
possible entry points for the gas supply pipework to enter the appliance
firebox. These entry points are 'knock out' type holes (shown in figure 2).
Non-concealed gas connections may be made using the entry points at
either end of the firebox or the one in the bottom of the firebox. A concealed
gas connection may be made using the knock out hole in the centre back
of the firebox. Select
the most appropriate
entry point and knock
out the relevant hole.
If a concealed gas con-
nection is to be made,
the supply pipe should
always be sleeved
through
walls
and
floors
using
the
shortest possible route.
Figure 2
For concealed supply
pipe routing, pipes
must (where possible) be vertical and providing there is sufficient wall thick-
ness available, they should be placed in pipe chases. Horizontal pipe runs
should be avoided. Prior to chasing a solid wall, an inspection should be
made to note the proximity of any cables/sockets outlets which may already
be buried. Pipes must be secured using suitable clips and protected against
corrosion. Ideally factory finished protected pipework and fittings should be
used. Joints should be kept to a minimum and compression fittings must
not be used. The pipework installation must be tested for soundness before
any protection is applied and/or the pipework and fittings are buried.
Now it is necessary to
assemble the rear frame
of the appliance. Unpack
the four frame sections
and lay face down on a
soft surface taking care
not to damage the painted
finish. Using the eight self
tapping screws provided,
fasten the frame pieces
together as shown in fig-
ure 3, making sure that
Figure 3
the edges align neatly.

routing, the appliance firebox may be secured to the wall.
A full size fitting template is supplied to assist with wall mounting.
If the heater is to be installed on a studded wall with conventional 16"
stud spacing then a wall mounting plate is supplied to enable this. First
locate the studs and using suitable fixings, screw the mounting plate to
the wall via the four mounting holes. The heater may then be hung onto
the mounting plate. The bottom of the heater may be secured onto the
lower mounting studs using the wingnuts or the hex nuts provided.
Mark the positions shown as "Plasma/Capella/Radium fixing points on
the wall. If the appliance is to be mounted on the inner leaf of a con-
ventional cavity wall, or a solid wall, drill four holes using a 1/4" masonry
bit. Insert the fiber wall plugs provided.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed
construction wall then special cavity screw fixings will be required which
are not supplied with this product. These should be constructed from
metal and not plastic.
If a concealed gas connection is to be made ensure the gas supply pipe
is in it's final position and can enter the appliance in the correct position
when the appliance is hung on the wall.
Insert the wall mounting screws into the top wall plugs, taking care to
leave the screws protruding approximately 3/8" from the wall. Now hang
the appliance onto these screws through the two keyhole shaped holes
in the back panel of the appliance.
