Most building regulatory Authorities in Australia require any
wood heater installation to comply with Installation Standard
AS/NZS 2918:2001. Different states and councils may have
varying regulations. Check local building regulations before
installing the appliance.
All Nectre wood heaters have been tested to ensure that they
will meet the appropriate safety Standard requirements if the
instructions in this manual are followed. As the safety and
emissions performance can be affected by altering the
appliance, no modifications are allowed without written
permission from the manufacturer.
WE RECOMMEND THAT THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR
NECTRE WOOD HEATER BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED
INSTALLER.
WARNING: THE APPLIANCE AND FLUE SYSTEM SHALL BE
INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AS/NZS 2918:2001 AND
THE APPROPRIATE REQUIREMENTS OF THE RELEVANT
BUILDING CODE OR CODES.
WARNING: APPLIANCES INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THIS STANDARD SHALL COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS
OF AS/NZS 4012 & AS/NZS 4013 WHERE REQUIRED BY THE
REGUALTORY AUTHORITY, I.E. THE APPLIANCE SHALL BE
IDENTIFIABLE BY A COMPLIANCE PLATE WITH THE MARKING
‘TESTED TO AS/NZS 4012 & AS/NZS 4013’.
ANY MODIFICATION OF THE APPLIANCE THAT HAS NOT
BEEN APPROVED IN WRITING BY THE TESTING AUTHORITY
IS CONSIDERED TO BE IN BREACH OF THE APPROVAL
GRANTED FOR COMPLIANCE WITH AS/NZS 4012 & AS/NZS
4013.
CAUTION: MIXING OF APPLIANCE OR FLUE-SYSTEM
COMPONENTS FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES OR MODIFYING
THE DIMENSIONAL SPECIFICATION OF COMPONENTS MAY
RESULT IN HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. WHERE SUCH ACTION
IS CONSIDERED, THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE
CONSULTED IN THE FIRST INSTANCE.
CAUTION: CRACKED AND BROKEN COMPONENTS, EG. GLASS
PANELS OR CERAMIC TILES, MAY RENDER THE INSTALLATION
UNSAFE.

Fitting rear heat shield
The rear outer heat shield should be fitted with spacers
before working out the position of the heater and the
relevant clearances to combustible surfaces.
i)
On the rear of the heater, there are four 32mm long PK
screws fixing the outer heat shield to the inner heat
shield. Remove the screws and the outer heat shield.
ii)
Remove the four M4 x 6mm long screws from the outer
heat shield.
iii)
Remove and unwrap the black angled heat deflector
from inside the heater.

Line up the four holes on the angled deflector with the
four holes on the outer heat shield, re-insert the four
M4 screws and tighten.

A plastic packet with four 20mm long tubular spacers
will be inside the heater. Relocate the four 32mm long
PK screws through the original holes in the outer rear
heat shield, slide a spacer over each screw, and re-
fasten to the inner rear heat shield.
