IMPORTANT : ALL RELEVANT SECTIONS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED BEFORE ANY BUILDING WORK.
12.1 - SEALING FRAME & WALL COVERINGS
With any form of heating appliance convection air will rise up through the fire carrying particles of dust that will in time result in
varying degrees of wall staining. The Nu-Flame Sealing Frames (& for Perspective Glass the Glass Shelf) are designed to minimise
this by deflecting the airflow away from the wall. However, over time some staining might occur and we therefore suggest not using
patterned paper around the fire.
Due to the heat output of The Synergy Range it is not recommended to use blown vinyl wall covering around the fire.
12.2 HOLE IN THE WALL APPLICATION
(FOR STEEL & GLASS TRIMS WITH SEALING FRAMES
)
a.
It is recommended that a qualified builder constructs the
builders opening.
b.
It is recommended that a lintel is fitted above the builders
opening, structural checks may be required.
c.
The builders opening must be constructed from
Non-combustible materials.
d. No
combustible materials must present in the builders
opening.
e.
The base of the builders opening must be flat, level and
square to the wall.
f.
The builders opening should have provision for a gas
supply through the rear, see Section 11 Gas Supply.
g.
There must be a flat surface around the face of the builders
opening as detailed in Section 8b and is dependant on the
Trim Style. This is essential in order to achieve a good seal
between the wall and the sealing frame.
h.
The
recommended
height for the base of the Builders
Opening is 400mm above floor level. The
minimum
height
for the base of the Builders Opening is 250mm above floor
level.
i.
The fire is fitted with Electronic Equipment, which is sensitive
to dampness and high humidity so it is very
important
that
Notes
any rendering/building work is allowed to thoroughly dry out
At 285mm deep a Sealing Frame Will be Required
before Installation.
The builders opening can taper towards the back to a minimum of 750mm and must be 285mm deep.
! IMPORTANT !
Dry lined walls – ensure that any air gaps between the back of the plasterboard and wall are sealed around the
builders opening or fireplace as this can affect flue pull and wall staining.
Sections 11 - 14 Detail Various Installation Options - Only one will apply.
! IMPORTANT NOTE !
The chosen installation should have been predetermined
with any parts ordered before any Building Work Is Started or Installation of the fire.
If a Wall Mounted Television is Being Considered Read Section 16 First.
