8.0 INSTALLATION WALL MOUNTED
CAUTION: DO NOT CONNECT THE APPLIANCE TO THE
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AT THIS TIME.
Focal Point Fires plc. assumes absolutely no responsibility for injuries and damages
that may occur due to improper installation or handling.
Remove any protective film coatings from the finished/decorative surfaces of the
appliance, if any. After having selected the final mounting position of the appliance
taking into account the integrity of the wall the firebox of the appliance may be
secured to the wall.
To ensure customer safety, be sure to design the installation so that the strength of
both the wall and any wall fixings used are sufficient. The appliance should not be
installed until all wet plastering and/or dry wall sanding and wall painting has been
completed. Do not block the ventilation holes of the appliance. The wall onto
which the appliance is installed must be flat. Install only on a vertical surface. Avoid
sloped surfaces. Installation onto anything other than a vertical wall may result in fire,
damage or injury.
If the appliance is to be mounted on the inner leaf of a conventional cavity brick wall,
or a solid wall, then the wall plugs and fixing screws provided may be used.
Depending on the condition of the wall it may be necessary to use additional fixings. In this situation, any additional fixings and
wallplugs should be of the same size and type as the ones provided.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed construction wall then efforts should be made to fix in
at least two positions vertically, into one of the wooden studs, or supporting wooden members of the wall using the fixing
screws provided. If this is not achievable then the wall should be strengthened using appropriate building materials.
The wall where the appliance is to be
installed must be capable of
long-term support of the total load of
the appliance. Measures should also
be taken to ensure sufficient strength
to withstand the force of
earthquakes, vibration and other
external forces. Plasterboard alone is
not considered to be a structural
material. It is not recommended to
rely on plasterboard fixings alone to
support the weight of the appliance.
WARNING
• site where the supply cable would become a trip hazard
• sit, stand or forcefully pull on the appliance
• obstruct, cover or force items into the openings
• use the heater to dry clothes
• site/use in an outdoor location(s)
