To Install the Appliance
CHECKING THE FLUE AND FIRE OPENING
•
Check that the chimney conforms to the required specifications as previously stated.
Examine the condition and carry out any remedial work.
•
If the flue has been used for solid fuel it should be swept prior to the installation.
•
Prior to installing the appliance a smoke test (using a smoke bomb) should be carried out to
check that satisfactory smoke clearance has been established. If all the smoke is not drawn
into the flue, pre-heat the flue with a blowtorch or similar and re-check. If there is any
uncertainty examine for the cause and, if necessary, seek expert advice.
•
When installing this appliance against a dry lined (plasterboard) wall ensure that any void
between the plasterboard and the wall is sealed with a suitable non combustible material
(i.e. plaster or mortar).
CONNECTING THE GAS SUPPLY
Determine where the gas supply is to be connected to the appliance. This may be done from
the front of the unit from either the left or right side, or a concealed fitting from the rear.
Concealed gas connection (from the rear)
Note: It may be necessary to remove the burner (2 screws) to aid installation.
•
If the supply is to be a concealed connection it would be advisable to route the supply to the
right side of the unit, taking into account the requirements of BS 6891 1988 dealing with
enclosed pipes.
•
A blind grommet is fitted to the rear of the appliance for the entry of the gas pipe (a hole
should be cut in the grommet to fit the supply pipe the grommet must be put back into place
to seal box).
•
An 8mm restrictor elbow is provided on the right-hand side with a compression connection at
the outlet.
•
The pipe can then be routed under the burner tray and onto the inlet elbow.
Visible gas connection (to the front, from the left or right)
•
Connections may be made from the front of the appliance from either the left or right in 8mm
diameter pipe.
•
The inlet elbow should be rotated to the required position and the end of the 8mm gas feed
pipe formed to route under control and into the inlet elbow.
•
A suitable means of isolation must always be fitted in the supply feed to the fire to facilitate
servicing.
FIXING BACK TO OPENING
•
Remove the paper backing from the length of foam seal and stick it to the rear flange of fire.
•
If a spacer box is going to be used stick the second length around the rear face of the
spacer unit,. THE FOAM SEAL MUST BE POSITIONED TO ENSURE AN AIR TIGHT SEAL
WHEN THE APPLIANCE IS FITTED.
•
DO NOT use permanent sealing compounds i.e. silicone sealant this could cause the
appliance to be damaged when it is removed for servicing.
•
If the spacer box is not being used, mark position of flange hole in the fireplace front and fix
firebox in position with wall plugs and wood screws.
•
If spacer box is being used fix the spacer-box to the fireplace first with wood screws and wall
plugs then screw firebox to spacer box using screws provided.
