INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Fitting the unit
•
For a new fireplace,
utilizing the Zero Clearance Box, the dimensions are 650mm wide,
295mm deep and 570mm high, plus the gather, which is the same width and depth but adds
205mm to the height of the unit.
• Place the Convector Box in the desired position.
• Check where timbers are located in the roof to ensure a clear path for the flue and maintain
25mm gap clearance.
• Fit a 150mm flue (active) together with an AGA approved gas cowl to the top of the flue. For
Zero Clearance add 200mm casing. Bend out four equidistant 25mm tags at the top of the
150mm flue to centre it in the 200mm flue. Flash the outer flue to the roof. The inner flue will be
free to move within outer flue to allow for thermal expansion and contraction.
• The room must have total fixed ventilation equal to the chimney / flue area.
• The gather should be sealed to the fan box using a high temp silicon or a high temp fire / flue
sealant.
Gas and electrical
• Gas connection is to a ½” BSP fitting connected to the gas regulator. This is located at the RHS
of the unit. 145mm up from the base and 80mm from the front.
• Note: Do not bring the gas supply down the active chimney.
• The 240v electrical connection for the fan is a cord with a standard 10A three pin plug, also on
the RHS near the gas connection, 50mm up from the base and 140mm from the front. The gas
control unit (remote control model only) is supplied by a battery pack containing 8 AA size
batteries, or a 240v ac to 12V dc Plug Pack.
Commissioning
• Once the burner is fitted and connected to the gas, test the unit’s operation.
• After 10 minutes operation from cold, test for fireplace spillage, i.e. all products of combustion
are entering the flue, by traversing the perimeter of the opening or canopy, using a smoke
generator (E.g. a smoking twist of paper or smoke match).
