3.9.2. Installation using Freedom Surround
The Freedom Surround is designed to provide an alternative installation method giving it a
contemporary hole-in-the-wall appearance whilst reducing heat transfer to the fabric of the
building.
The Freedom Surround greatly reduces the risk of cracking caused by excessive heat being
transferred from the appliance to the wall.
If there is insufficient depth to accommodate the chosen appliance, a 30mm spacer is
available – see
Section 3.9.4 - Installation Using a Spacer Frame (if applicable).
When installed in a timber framed building, the Freedom Surround greatly reduces the amount
of insulation required around the appliance, however, the rear of the appliance and any flue
will still require the same level of protection.
