Preparation of firebox
If the flexi flue adaptor is to be used then there are modifications that need to be made to the firebox.
•
Firstly, remove the top insulating panel and
insulation.
•
Remove the 4 screws holding the twin skin flue
spigot in place and carefully remove the spigot.
DO NOT REMOVE THE WHITE GASKET
•
Remove the six screws down the side of the spigot
and attach the two spigot rails that are supplied
with the flexi flue spigot
•
If the top insulation panel is to be used, then it
must be cut to allow the spigot to transition down
the rails. Each panel will end up being about
250mm wide
•
Remove the two knockouts in the centre of the top
flange of the firebox
Installing Firebox
•
Place the firebox onto the hearth and carefully line up the gas supply pipe with the hole in the back left
hand corner of the firebox
•
Make sure that the power supply cord is passed through the cavity for connection by a registered
electrician (power is not required to operate the manual version of this fire if the fan is not being used
but it is recommended that it is connected regardless)
•
Line the flue spigot adaptor up with the guide rails on the top of the fire box and push the firebox in.
Take care not to roll the spigot gasket as the firebox slides in!
•
Once the firebox is fully home, use screws to hold the flue spigot to the top flange of the firebox
•
Fix the front flange of the firebox to the cavity. If a glass trim is to be used then countersunk screws will
need to be used.
NOTE: It is not necessary to seal the firebox to the cavity.
