MASONRY INSTALLATION 

 

NOTE: Receiver for fan remote control must be fitted before 
installing the appliance. Refer to section 3.6 Fitting Receiver 
for Remote Control for more detail. 

 

Refer to this section for clearance requirements and 
instructions if the heater is to be in a masonry installation. 

 

4.1.

 

CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS 

 

The dimensions given in the table and image below represent 
the minimum clearance (in millimetres) to combustible 
materials, such as a mantelpiece with columns, when installed 
in a non-combustible fireplace. 

 

Description 

Clearance 

(Width between mantelpiece columns) 

1335 

(Height to mantelpiece from hearth) 

1400 

(Height to mantelpiece from appliance) 

750 

(Distance to side wall) 

550 

Note – mantelpiece clearance can be reduced by installing a 
heat shield beneath it in accordance with AS/NZS 2918. 

 

 

 

 

4.2.

 

FLOOR PROTECTOR (HEARTH) 

 

The minimum dimensions and construction materials for the 
floor protector when installed in a masonry fireplace are the 
same as for a Built-In installation. Refer to section 3.4 Floor 
Protector (Hearth) for details. 

 

 

4.3.

 

INSTALLING THE FLUE 

 

If the appliance is installed in a masonry fireplace with 
masonry chimney, the flue must be installed in accordance 
with AS/NZS 2918. 

If the chimney is not masonry and is constructed wholly or 
partly from combustible material, it must be installed with the 
manufacturer-supplied Built-In flue kit. 

Any gaps between the 8 inch active flue and the flue spigot on 
the appliance should be filled with either stove cement 
designed for this purpose or high temperature cloth tape.
