Front wall to heater 

The front wall from floor to ceiling shall be non combustible comprising metal 
framing (supplied with heater) and cladding material such as 

Versalux 

fibro 

cement sheeting. The minimum side clearance from the heater to any timber 
framing within the enclosure shall be 165mm (i.e. 165mm cle 35mm 
timber frame = 200mm clearance to side wall). Beyond this distance, the front 
wall can be any material, eg. Gyprock stud wall. 
 
The supplied steel framing once assembled acts as a surround for the wall heater 
to slide into, and as non-combustible internal wall framing for the fibro cement 
sheeting to be fastened to. The steel framing is fastened to the top of the steel 
cross bearers. Refer to the diagram in the section titled “Suggested Framing” 
below for the assembled configuration of the steel framing. 
 
If the ceiling is greater than 2400mm, then additional timber framing can be used 
in the front wall so long as it is not less than the clearance of 1170mm above the 
top of the heater. 
 
 
 

Steel Cross Bearers and Support Channels 

Steel bearers are supplied with the heater to support it and provide adequate 
ventilation underneath. The weight of the heater is taken on the two 1130mm 
long by 100mm high cross bearers and these must be solidly supported with the 
rear bearer 25mm clear of the rear wall.  
 
The 500mm long by 100mm high support channels are bolted to the cross 
bearers

 

with the narrow flange to the top and having the top holes at 600 mm 

centres (bolts supplied). 

 

 
 
 

Wiring for Fan 

Provide a wiring point in the cavity under the heater. If the cavity under the heater 
will not be accessible once the heater is installed (such as through a removable 
vent) then ensure an extension cord long enough to reach out of the front of the 
opening is lying in the base of the cavity. 
 
 
 
With the fan and outer trim removed slide the heater into the cavity and fix with 
the supplied bolts to the support channels. 
 
Access the power lead and plug the fan lead in to it pushing the lead into the wall 
cavity under the heater. Fix the fan in place using the two 6mm screws at either 
end.
