Choosing a site:
This fireplace may be installed in any room in a home except in bedrooms or
bathrooms where the humidity levels are too high. (See page 1)
Avoid areas where there are strong draughts
, which may be generated by
outside doors. It is recommend that the fireplace
should not
be installed
within 500mm of any air vent, as this could affect the working of the ODS.
Clearances to combustible materials:
Combustible materials are defined as wood, fabrics, or other materials likely
to burn when exposed to flame. Any other material which is likely to discolour,
melt, or lose shape when exposed to moderate heat, should fall into the
same category.
