General advice
Not all fireplace apertures are square or rectangular box`s. In cases of where apertures tapper or there is an
arch top for example a careful assessment should be made to confirm operational clearances can be achieved.
Rules of thumb.
If the clearances at the sides are small but the clearances at the top are large this will still allow access to
remove remote control motor if fitted.
Heat likes to rise, allow as much space as possible above the appliance for heat to escape into the room. If
there is only a small aperture above the stove bring the stove out into the room by at least 2/3 to assist with
the heat distribution.
Always consider that the stove is a heating appliance and would distribute its heat best when free standing. So
allow as much space around the stove as possible even if it requires removal of fireplace surround material to
create an ideal opening. (Expert building advice may be required).
