8.2.2
For models with fascia that slide onto the convection box flanges:
There is a length of self adhesive foam seal supplied with the fire. This will need to be
fitted to the outer rear edges of the side and top flanges of the convector box. This will
be fitted over the flanges of the fascia.
It is therefore important to ensure that the
fascia is positioned correctly before fitting the foam seal.
(See fascia fitting guide
supplied with the fascia). Cut the foam seal to the required length. Be careful not to
stretch the seal when measuring. Remove the protective backing from the foam seal and
fit this to the rear of the convector box flange (See figure 8).
8.3 The flue restrictor.
This appliance is supplied with a flue restrictor for use where the flue draught is
excessive.
The restrictor must not be fitted where a precast flue or a 125mm flue
liner is used
. For flue liners greater than
125mm and all other installations the
restrictor should be fitted. There may
however, be certain exceptional
circumstances where fitting the restrictor
causes the fire to fail the spillage test. In such
cases the restrictor will have to be removed.
After removal conduct the spillage check
again.
Fit the restrictor as shown in figure 9 using
the two screws provided.
9. FIREBOX INSTALLATION
9.1
Method 1- Front fixing to fireplace surround.
(This method of fixing may not be suitable for fires
with fascia that slide onto the convection box flanges.
The screw heads may prevent fascia fitting).
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 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 hotbox (See figure
10).
