2. INSTALLATION RESPONSIBILITIES
WARNING:
THE APPLIANCE AND FLUE SYSTEM SHALL BE INSTALLED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH AS/NZ 2918 AND THE APPROPRIATE
REQUIREMENTS OF THE RELEVANT BUILDING CODE OR CODES.
ANY MODIFICATION OF THE APPLIANCE THAT HAS NOT BEEN
APPROVED IN WRITING BY THE TESTING AUTHORITY IS
CONSIDERED
TO BE IN BREACH OF THE APPROVAL GRANTED FOR COMPLIANCE
WITH AS/NZS 4013.
CAUTION:
MIXING OF APPLIANCE OR FLUE-SYSTEM COMPONENTS FROM
DIFFERENT SOURCES OR MODIFYING THE DIMENSIONAL SPECIFICATION
OF COMPONENTS MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. WHERE
SUCH ACTION IS CONSIDERED, THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE
CONSULTED IN THE FIRST INSTANCE.
Strict adherence to these instructions will meet these standards.
Any variation from these installation instructions or any doubt about them must be
checked against the requirements of the Standards.
Please leave this manual with the owner when installation is complete
.
3. FLOOR PROTECTOR REQUIREMENTS
The heater should always be installed on top of its base due to high temperatures
sustained over long periods. The base must be anchored to both the floor protector and
the floor for seismic restraint. Anchor points are provided in the base.
If the heater is installed on or within 500mm of a heat sensitive floor,
then an ash
floor
protector using a minimum of 6mm thick tiles will be required
.
This
floor protector shall extend under the appliance and not less than 300mm beyond the
front of the fuel loading or ash removal openings. The width of the floor protector
shall be not less than the width of the appliance, and shall extend not less than 200mm
from each side of the fuel loading or ash removal openings unless it forms an abutment
with a wall or heat shield at a lesser distance.
Where the floor protector consists of a number of components, it shall include a
continuous layer of heat-resistant material extending under the appliance to the
perimeter of the floor protector. All joints shall be fixed to prevent accidental
separation, and shall be sealed to prevent any spilt ash or embers contacting any heat
sensitive material.
