Clearances from combustibles
The clearances listed below, measured from the edge of the glass, are
minimum clearances unless otherwise stated.
While the heater is operating
The appliance must not be
installed where curtains or
other combustible materials
could come into contact with
the heater.
The 1000 mm clearance
above is the clearance to the
ceiling.
Mantels and surrounds
Combustible mantels and
surrounds require clearance
from the fire to minimise
fire danger. Mantels
and surrounds, made of
combustible materials such as
wood, are allowed providing
they are outside the minimum
clearances shown.
Hearths
A hearth is not necessary but
can be used for decorative
purposes or protection of
sensitive flooring. A hearth
must not obscure the front of
the fire.
Floor protection
Heat emanating from this
fire may over time affect
the appearance of some
materials used for flooring,
such as, carpet, vinyl, cork or
timber. This may be amplified
if the air contains cooking
vapours or cigarette smoke.
To avoid this occurring, it is
recommended that a mat
be placed in front of this
appliance.
