tained during installation, including adequate space for the proper
operation and servicing of the heater.
Keep curtains*, furniture and other flammable materials at least 900mm
from front of heater.
* Curtain clearance can be less than 900mm as long as they
are restrained from sides and front of heater.
For minimum clearances refer fig 9 and 10.

Installation into a masonry/brick or mock fireplace.
5. Models CANTIB-NG & CANTIB-LP can be installed onto a masonry/
brick fireplace or mock fireplace. If installing into a mock fireplace a
mock fireplace installation kit MUST be used. The mock fireplace instal-
lation kit can be ordered from the CANNON distributor. Order speci-
fication for the part is ‘MOCKKITRO’.
For installation onto a masonry or brick fireplace WITH a flue connec-
tion refer figure 11. For installation WITHOUT a flue connected refer
figures 12 & 13. After installation of the heater/flue test the flue to
confirm air vents are unobstructed. If an exhaust fan or other heating
appliances are present switch them on. This is to test that there is no
interaction between the CANNON heater and other appliances.

cure case flanges to masonry. Refer figure 23.
15. Connect incoming gas supply pipe to regulator. For inlet position see
