5.1 Initial Preparation
1. Unpack the appliance from the carton and check all items
are present. The ceramic coal bed items should be left in
their box until required.
2. Some sheet metal parts may be fitted with protective
plastic coating which must be removed prior to installation.
5.2 General Preparation
1. Make sure the chosen position will comply with the
installation requirements detailed in section 3.0 Site
Requirements.
2. Make sure the damp course and any electrical wiring or
piping in the wall is not affected by the installation.
3. Any gas supply pipe concealed in a wall, floor or cavity
must be continuous and enclosed in a gas tight sleeve. (Gas
Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1994 as
amended).
4. The fire can be fitted into a surround or false chimney
breast in front of a non-combustible wall, into a recess within
a brick, block or stone cavity wall, or into a timber framed
dwelling.
5.3 Preparation of the Site - Fire In front of the wall
1. This installation details the use of a fire surround or false
chimney breast having a minimum depth of 140mm. This will
allow the fire to be positioned in front of the wall with a hole
in the inner wall for the flue only. The maximum surround
depth will depend upon the wall thickness. The maximum
total depth is 600mm from the outer wall face to the rear face
of the outer fire frame. The minimum total depth is 300mm.
2. Any combustible material within the installation must be
at least 75mm away from the appliance, the flue box and the
circular horizontal flue.
3. A suitable liner should be made to enclose the fire
(Fig. 11). This should be fitted within the false fire surround.
It should be 24mm thick and be of Supalux or similar non-
combustible board. If 24mm material is not available two or
more smaller boards may be used. It should extend from the
outer fire frame to the inside face of the wall. When fitted,
this box should be insulated to the top and sides with
100mm of Rockwool (Fig. 12).
