GAS SUPPLY ROUTES 

There are several possible entry points for the gas supply pipework to enter the appliance firebox (see
figure 2). These entry points are ‘knock out’ type holes.  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 one of the knock out holes in the back of the firebox. Select the
most appropriate entry point and knock out the relevant hole 
No more than 1.5m of 8mm diameter pipe must be used to avoid unnecessary pressure drops.

If a concealed gas connection is to be made, the supply pipe should always be sleeved through walls
and floors using the shortest possible route. For con-
cealed supply pipe routing, pipes must (where possi-
ble) be vertical and providing there is sufficient wall
thickness 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 pro-
tected against corrosion. Ideally factory finished pro-
tected pipework and fittings should be used. Joints
should be kept to a minimum and compression fit-
tings 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.

FIXING THE APPLIANCE

Remove any protective film coatings from the finished/decorative surfaces of the appliance. After hav-
ing selected the final mounting position of the appliance, taking into account the requirements as spec-
ified in sections 3 and 4 of these instructions, the integrity of the wall, and the feasibility of the pro-

posed supply pipe routing, the firebox of the appliance may be
secured to the wall.  
To ensure customer safety, be sure to design the installation so
that the strength of both the wall and any wall fixings used are
sufficient. 

Acquisitions of London assumes absolutely no responsibility for
injuries and damages that may occur due to improper installation
or handling. The appliance should not be installed until all wet
plastering and/or dry wall sanding and wall painting has been
completed.  Do not block the ventilation holes of the appliance.

The wall onto which the appliance is installed must be flat. Install only on a vertical surface.  Avoid
sloped surfaces. Installation onto anything other than a vertical wall may result in fire, damage or
injury.

4

The wall where the appliance
is to be installed must be
capable of long-term support
of the total load of the appli-
ance. Measures should also be
taken to ensure sufficient
strength to withstand the
force of earthquakes, vibra-
tion and other external forces.
