9. HOTBOX INSTALLATION
9.1 Method 1- Front fixing to fireplace surround
(Not available on Blenheim,
Sonnet, Homeflame Traditional, Anthem, Debut, Aura 2 or Minima models because
of the ‘push on’ fascia trims).
1.
Make sure that the fireplace front surround area is sound enough to take the wall
plugs and screws. 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 rear seal.
3.
Mark the fireplace front surround through the four
fixing holes in the side flanges of the hotbox (See figure
14).
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 wall plug ‘I’ into each hole.
6.
Place the hotbox back in position in the fireplace.
7.
Fit a suitable screw (Not supplied) through each hole
in the hotbox flanges and tighten to seal the box to the
fireplace surround. We recommend the use of a screw with 1 1/2 inches (38mm) length.
9.2 Cable retention
(Available on all models).
1.
Make sure that the relevant areas at the fireplace back are sound enough to take the
eyescrews. 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
fibre plugs. The holes should
be drilled within the range of
positions shown in figure 15
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
