INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE
Pre-Installation Notes
1.
Check the stove data plate to establish the gas type required. The
data plate can be found on a chain at the top left rear corner of the
stove. Before installation check that the local distribution conditions,
nature of the gas and pressure, and adjustment of the application are
compatible.
2.
A
GAS SAFE REGISTERED INSTALLER
or equally recognised competent
person must fit the appliance. That person is legally responsible for the
safe installation of the appliance with due regard to all relevant local
and national building regulations.
3.
All outer surfaces of the stove excepting the gas control knobs are
defined as working surfaces.
4.
Installation site
Any installation area previously used for a solid fuel fire or stove would
probably be deemed suitable for the appliance.
5.
The stove must not be installed onto a combustible wall. Any
combustible materials must be removed from behind the appliance.
1.
The appliance must be sited on a non-combustible hearth of minimum
12mm thickness.
7. The hearth should be edged or raised to prevent combustible floor
finishes (e.g. Carpet) from being laid too close to the appliance.
8.
Opening clearances
For the relevant clearance distances when installing the appliance in a
non-combustible opening see diagram 2 below:
