6. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1 Carefully remove all packaging.
2a If the installation is into a MASONRY ENCLOSURE : Remove firebricks as necessary to fit the
firebox into the opening. The firebox front when installed must be flush with the finished fireplace
surround and on a level base of the same height as the finished floor protector. This may be
achieved by using a concrete mix to level the base.
2b If installation is into a ZERO CLEARANCE BOX : Construct the canopy box as per page 8. Install
into framework following guides on pages 8 - 15 as applicable.
3. Slide the firebox into the opening so that the outer casing return folds are flush with the finished fire
surround.
4 DUE TO NEW ZEALAND BEING AN EARTHQUAKE PRONE COUNTRY, IT IS IMPORTANT TO
ANCHOR THE INSERT DOWN IN CASE OF EARTH MOVEMENT. See diagram page 18 showing
Typical Insert Installation.
5 Install Flue as per instructions on Page 20 & 21 if installing in a Masonry Fireplace or pages 8, 9,
10, 11, 12, 15, if using a Zero Clearance Box - (Built-in Fire Canopy).
6 Now that the firebox and flue are in position, place 25mm White Kaowool Blanket (supplied) on
top of casing.
7 As this fire sources its combustion air from the chimney cavity/enclosure, the fire MUST be sealed
around the front between the casing and the masonry or Zero Clearance Box This is achieved by
packing the yellow ISB insulation supplied between the casing and the masonry or Zero Clearance
Box at the FRONT ONLY to maximum depth of 90mm.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES
SHOULD THE AIRPORTS ON THE SIDE OF THE Fire BE
RESTRICTED. Refer diagram page 18.
The fire sources its combustion air from the chimney cavity, not from the room where the fire is installed.
This ventilation air should be drawn down the chimney cavity from the air gap set up when the top spacer
bracket holds the weather collar off from the outer flue casing enabling air to be drawn into the chimney
cavity. Failure to ensure this air supply will starve the fire of air and lead to poor performance.
