STEP 1:
INSPECT THE FIREPLACE & FLUE PENETRATION THEN LAY BASE & HEARTH
»
Inspect the area to ensure the fireplace and flue, including clearances, base and hearth, will be
installed safely and conform to Australian & New Zealand Standards AS/NZS 2918:2018 and the
guides in this manual relative to your type of installation
»
Lay the base and hearth, refer to pages 8 & 13 for minimum sizes and requirements
»
Additional reinforcement may need to be installed in order to support the weight as outlined on page 8
STEP 2:
INSTALL WALL PROTECTION
»
If the wall materials are combustible and do not fall within the minimum safety clearances as listed on
page 14, then additional wall protection must be installed
»
Protection can include materials such as Skamol Board and bricks/hebel
»
When installing Skamotec please refer to pages 14-16 of this manual for minimum clearances and
installation process
STEP 3:
PUT UNIT INTO POSITION & ASSEMBLE THE DAMPER SYSTEM
»
Due to the weight of this fireplace please take care when putting the unit into position
»
It is at this stage that we highly recommend fitting the damper system (prior to fitting the flue), please
refer to page 27 of this manual
STEP 4:
INSTALL THE STARTING COLLAR & FLUE
»
The flue adaptor must be fitted into the cast iron collar of the firebox gather
»
When using a single skin flue kit, ensure the flue is installed crimped end down into the flue adaptor
»
When using a triple skin flue kit, use the starter flue section into the flue adaptor
»
Secure the flue to the adaptor using 3 stainless steel rivets evenly spaced
»
All stainless steel inner flues (including charcoal painted stainless steel flues) must be joined using
stainless steel pop rivets and must be installed crimp end DOWN
»
All galvanised second and third outer casing must be installed crimp end UP
»
The minimum clearance from a single skin flue to any combustible material is 920mm
»
The minimum clearance to triple skin flue to any combustible material is 50mm
»
Refer to page 7 flue requirements and 17 for flue components and overview
STEP 5:
TRIPLE SKIN DROPPER & COWL
»
Install non-combustible board to the ceiling
»
The triple skin dropper box must be installed to a minimum of 150mm below the ceiling with a 50mm
clearance maintained around the outer skin
»
At the termination height of the triple skin flue, the active stainless steel inner must be a maximum of
30mm higher than the middle and outer galvanised casing. The stainless steel skirt is screwed to the
crimp of the outer casing. The stainless steel cowl slides into the neck of the skirt and must locate
inside the active flue below. No fixing is to be done to the cowl
»
Refer to section 4.6 in AS/NZS 2918:2018 for installing flue penetrations
»
Please also use the diagram on page 7 to ensure external flue heights and cowl clearances are
maintained
STEP 6:
FIT THE BACK PLATE, BAFFLE PLATE, ASH RETAINER, GRATES & ASH PAN
»
Ensure the backplate is installed first, then using a log to hold the back plate into position to prevent it
from falling, then install the baffle plate.
»
Detailed illustrations and assembly instructions can be viewed on pages 26-28
STEP 7:
TEST FIRE DRAW
»
Light a small piece of newspaper inside the firebox to test the draw of the unit and flue
»
If the draw is adequate, complete the check list on page 41
and return this as well as this entire booklet
to the fireplace owner
»
If the draw is inadequate please refer to the Balancing Air Pressure section on page 6
