3.0 INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

If the appliance is to be sited near a disused or unserviceable fireplace served by a natural draught flue then the old flue must be

sealed off. It will be necessary to ventilate the old flue to prevent condensation and dampness forming, however any air vent used to

ventilate the old flue must not be sited within 500mm of this appliance. If the flue can be ventilated to the outside of the building

then this is usually the best solution. If in doubt then advice should be sought from a local building control officer.  The appliance is

designed to be wall mounted. If the appliance is to be mounted on a newly fabricated area of wall that also serves the purpose of

sealing off the old flue then it is very important that there are no holes, gaps or otherwise in this wall that will allow draughts from

the old flue to enter the room, especially directly behind the appliance. Such draughts could affect the performance of the ODS sys-

tem and result in nuisance cutting out, for example. If the gas supply pipe is to enter the appliance from the rear, i.e. emerge from

the wall behind the appliance, then any hole in the wall from which the pipe emerges must be tightly sealed. Propane/LPG models

must not be installed in cellars, basements or any room which is completely below ground level.

The room size MUST be a minimum of 30m

3

(e.g. 3.5m x 3.5m x 2.45m or 11'6" x 11'6" x 8'). 

This is to allow adequate circulation of air and ensure the correct operation of the fire. This volume may include adjacent spaces but

these spaces must not be separated by a door.  Note :To calculate a room size in cubic metres (m

3

) divide the room volume in cubic

feet (ft

3

) by 35.3. 

This appliance may be installed in any room in the home except bathrooms or bedrooms. The appliance is designed to be versatile, and

as such will operate correctly when exposed to normal gentle draughts experienced within the home. It is not recommended, however

that the appliance be installed in areas where it is likely to be directly exposed to persistent strong draughts, that may be generated by

outside doors, windows, air vents, air conditioning units, extractor fans, ceiling fans etc. See section 4.1 for more information on ventilation.

Clearances to non-combustible materials

Non combustible surfaces are defined as brick, metal, marble, concrete etc. and also a

number of man-made materials impervious to flame. If in doubt refer to the material

manufacturer for further information before proceeding with installation.

Clearances to the sides of the appliance are 100mm (4”). Clearance to the front of the

appliance is 500mm (20”). 

The back of the appliance may be installed directly onto a non-combustible wall, pro-

viding the area behind the appliance is flat and does not interfere with the various vent holes in the back panel of the appliance.

A non combustible shelf of any depth may be positioned above the appliance provided it is no closer than 400mm (16”) from the

top of the appliance glass panel and the wall above the appliance is non combustible. The appliance must not be positioned ver-

tically within 60mm (2.4”) of a solid floor (i.e. wood or stone) or hearth.  This dimension is measured vertically to the bottom of

the appliance firebox.

3.1 ROOM SIZING

4.0 SITE REQUIREMENTS

This appliance is designed to be

wall-hung. Do not recess any part

of the appliance into the wall.
