Clearances from combustibles

The clearances listed below, measured from the 

edge of the inner glass

, are 

minimum clearances unless otherwise stated.

While the heater is operating

The appliance must not be installed where 
curtains or other combustible materials could 
come into contact with the heater. The 
400 mm side clearance includes side walls.

Floor protection

Heat from this fire may over time affect 
the appearance of some materials used for 
flooring, such as, carpet, vinyl, cork or timber. 
This may be amplified if the air contains 
cooking vapours or cigarette smoke. To avoid 
this occurring, it is recommended that a mat 
be placed in front of this appliance.

Hearths

A hearth is not necessary, but can be used for 
decorative purposes or protection of sensitive 
flooring. A hearth, if installed, must not 
obscure the front of the fire.

TV installation above the fireplace

The Neo has a fan that distributes warm air 
from the top of the appliance out into the 
room. As warm air is dispersed outwards, as 
opposed to directly upwards, installation of a 
TV may be an option.

Generally the bottom of the television 
recess should be at least 400 mm above 
the fire. Please check with the television 
supplier to check clearances. Some television 
manufacturers have warranty conditions that 
state a television is not to be installed above a 
fireplace.

For further information refer to p. 14.
