NSTALLING 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.
6. 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
an opening see diagram 2 below:
