The clearance is required for correct fluing of
the appliance. If the clearance is less than 50mm
a spacer kit must be fitted. The spacer can be
ordered from the Cannon distributor.

Installation Tips
test the operation of the chimney before installing the
new heater.
CannOn heaters are high efficiency products with low
flue gas temperatures (typically 100°C) so if you are
replacing an older type radiant heater with a much higher
flue gas temperature (150°C or higher) make sure of the
integrity of the fireplace and chimney before installing the
new CannOn log fire.
a solid, levelled and smooth base is required
(fill gaps with fibreglass insulation if necessary).
avoid installing into large volume fireplaces and chimneys
and not fitting a flue.
We recommend cleaning or sweeping the chimney and
fireplace before the installation of the heater commences.
there must be a good seal around the heater, gas piping
and electrical cable rear entry to stop any leakage of
combustion products. Do not use adhesives or silicone
sealant, the heater must be able to be easily removed
if necessary.
Install a chimney plate and cowl to the chimney opening
using weatherproof mortar to common building practice.
remove any curved fire wall that slopes too far forward
to the fireplace opening as it causes restriction to the flue
path above the heater flue outlet. refer
FIG 7
&
FIG 8
.
Make sure that the heater is fully commissioned and be
certain to conduct a test of the integrity of the flue opera-
tion, taking into account any influences created by range
hoods, exhaust fans, central heating, etc.
to avoid any unnecessary delays and inconvenience to
your customer please contact our technical Services
Department on 1300 727 421 if the installation is unusual

operation before the installation commences.
