INSTALLATION OF YOUR JAYLINE WOOD FIRE

Jayline recommends you use a suitably qualified installation technician to install your fire. Your dealer 
or heating specialist will be able to help with recommendations as well as advise on permits/consents 
required for the installation in your area. Web address for NZHHA certified installers/service person.

Please follow carefully all dimensions and recommendations provided on the individual specification 
sheet for your model of heater as these dimensions comply with the required New Zealand standard 
(AS/NZS 2918:2001).

As safety and emissions performance can be affected by altering the appliance, no modifications are 
allowed without the written permission from the manufacturer.

INSTALLATION 

1.  Unpack the heater and check that there is no damage.
2.  Ascertain the position of the roof penetration for the flue system.  
 

 A correctly installed flue system will normally prevent down draught problems during windy 
weather and eliminate smoke spillage problems due to lack of draught. 

3.   Ascertain suitable position for appliance and size of floor protector and check the ceiling to ensure 

that no major structural members will be affected by the path of the flue.

4.   Check that the sub-structure is capable of carrying the heater (i.e. weight consideration on the floor).
5.  Check measurements of the heater to combustibles or shield.
6.   Locate the heater in the required position (also see 

‘Fitting Seismic Restraint’

 after installation 

instruction #10).

7.   Using a plumb line fastened to the ceiling, mark the centre of the flue penetration position and cut 

the ceiling hole to the required size and frame out.

8.  Install the flue system (see flue installation instructions supplied with flue system). 

Remember:

•    The flue system should rise vertically from the appliance with as few offsets as possible.  

Offsets should be limited as each change in direction creates a resistance to airflow and makes  
flue cleaning difficult.

•    The flue system must be well sealed with a minimum of 3 fixings at each joint.  

We recommend using flue sealant on all joints.

•    The flue pipe penetrating the chimney must continue to the minimum length of 4.6m from the top 

of the floor protector to the cowl.
