Fisher recommends you use a qualified wood fire installer or a registered plumber to install your fire.
Your dealer or heating specialist will be able to help with recommendations as well as advise on permits/
consents required for the installation in your area.
Please follow carefully all dimensions and recommendations provided on the individual specification sheet
for your model of fire as these dimensions comply with the required New Zealand standard (AS/NZS
2918:2001).
As safety and emissions performance can be affected by altering the fire, no modifications are
allowed without the written permission from the manufacturer.
installation
1. Unpack the fire and check that there is no damage.
2. Ascertain the position of the roof penetration for the flue system.
A correctly installed flue system will normally prevent down draught problems during windy weather and
eliminate smoke spillage problems due to lack of draught.
3. Ascertain suitable position for the fire and size of floor protector and check the ceiling to ensure that no
major structural members will be affected by the path of the flue.
4. Check that the sub-structure is capable of carrying the fire (i.e. weight consideration on the floor).
5. Check measurements of the fire to combustibles or shield.
6. Locate the fire in the required position (also see
‘Fitting Seismic Restraint’
after installation
instruction #10).
7. Using a plumb line fastened to the ceiling, mark the centre of the flue penetration position and cut the
ceiling hole to the required size and frame out.
8. Install the flue system (see flue installation instructions supplied with flue system).
