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 addi-
tional 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 two of the fixing screws pro-
vided. If this is not achievable then the wall should be strengthened using appropriate building
materials.
If there is no alternative than to rely on some plasterboard fixings then special cavity screw
fixings or hollow wall anchors will be required which are not supplied with this product. These
should be constructed from metal and not plastic and of the design indicated (Figure 2). For
further guidance for wall fixing in timber framed buildings refer to any relevant local codes of practice.

.

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 plaster-

board fixings alone to support the

weight of the appliance.

The appliance should be installed on a combustable surface/ shelf and not resting on the edge of the opening, as this could block the air
intake required, which would result in the heater cutting out. If no shelf is in place, leave a 8mm gap under the appliance to allow air to flow
in to the cavity, and let the heater operate correctly.

A combustible shelf may be fixed to the wall above the fire, providing that it complies with the dimensions given below.
A non-combustible shelf may be fitted to within 10mm of the top edge of the fireframe. Combustible materials, such as wood, may be
fitted to within 100mm of either side of the fireplace opening, providing the forward projection does not exceed 100mm. Any combustible
side walls must be at least 500mm to the side of the radiant heat source. As with all heating appliances, any decorations, soft
furnishings, and wall coverings (i.e. flock, blown vinyl and embossed paper) positioned too close to the appliance may discolour or scorch.
