PARAGON FOCUS RS Installation Instructions
SECTION TEN To Install the Appliance Continued

Us
ing 125mm (5”) core drill, cut two holes following the pilot holes, drill from the outside of the
dwelling through to the cavity, and from the inside through to the cavity

Remove any combustible material that may be present if the rear of the appliance is contacting
the wall i.e. ensure no battens etc., behind dry lining

Lay the hearth or a non-combustible base (for Hole in Wall) so that it is positioned correctly to the
horizontal line.

Temporally position and fix the back panel and deep surround, or construct a dummy chimney
breast as required, avoiding combustible materials coming in close proximity to the appliance or
the flue, leaving access to pack around the appliance with “Rockwool”.

Offer the appliance into the opening and mark through the gas pipe entry hole (see connecting the
gas supply later in this manual).

Pass a tape measure through the core-drilled holes and record the distance from the back of the
spigots to the surface of the outside wall.

Increase both the recorded distances by 15mm each, and cut the lengths from the 100mm-
diameter pipe - you will probably require an extra pipe.

Remove the appliance from the opening, and position the gas supply (see connecting the gas
supply later in this manual), taking account of the relative gas regulations appertaining to a gas
pipe in a cavity.

Permanently fix the deep rebated surround in position, and pack the void behind the fascia panel
of the deep rebated surround with “Rockwool”. Pack 150mm thickness of “Rockwool” over the
appliance top and side if it is fitted into a dummy chimneybreast, and fill any space between the
appliance and the outside wall.

Position and seal the pipes two their respective spigots on the rear of the appliance (use flue seal
or fire cement to ensure airtight seal, it must not obstruct the flue).

Peal the backing off the length of foam seal and affix to the rear outer edge of the appliance
flange.

Push the appliance back into the opening and fill any space behind the appliance with
“Rockwool”.

Complete the gas connection (see connecting the gas supply later in this manual).

Drill the four fixing holes through the hole in the flange of the appliance and fix back using plus
and screws.

Fit the outer wall terminal plate, with the “Rockwool” gasket sandwiched between it and the wall,
with the double spigot at the top so that it seals to both the flue pipe and the air duct, (use flue
seal or fire cement to ensure air tight seal, it must not obstruct the flue).

Drill through the four holes in the outer wall terminal plate and fix back to the wall using plugs and
screws.

Position the outer terminal cover and fix to wall terminal plate with the four screws provided.

If the flue outlet is fitted below 2m from the floor or a balcony then the flue guard must be fitted.
