FIREPLACE INSTALLATION
THIS FIRE MUST BE INSTALLED IN A FIREPLACE OPENING AND SECURED USING
APPROPRIATE WALL FIXINGS
Your PUREGLOW fire is designed to fit a standard 16”(410mm) fireplace opening. Before
installing, thoroughly clean the fireplace and ensure debris and dust cannot enter the fire
from the chimney; ensure the fire stands on a smooth level surface.
Position the fire in the opening and mark through the fixing flanges fixed to the fire
the 4 off fixing points. Remove the fire if necessary , drill & fit appropriate wall
fixings. Re-fit fire to the opening and secure to opening using 4 off appropriate
screws.
PLEASE NOTE:
If you are fixing the fire to Marble, Granite or similar, it is preferable to fix with
either a suitable double sided adhesive tape or a Silicon based sealant/adhesive.
PLEASE NOTE:
When installing this appliance in an existing chimney, we recommend that:
1.
You have your chimney cleaned by a competent chimney sweep
2. Your chimney flue is blocked off correctly
This procedure is important to reduce heat losses and prevent any chimney up
draught affecting the operation of your inset fire.
