5.1 

Regulations 

 

All national and local regulations, including those referring to national and European 

 

standards need to be complied with when installing the Range.  

5.2 

Installation 

 

The Range must be installed by a registered installer or approved by your local  

building control officer. 

5.3 

Safety clearances 

 

The Range must be installed with the following minimum safety clearances from  

combustible materials. 

 

Without shielding option 

 

Side 550mm, Rear 700mm 

With shielding option installed  

 

on sides and rear   

 

Side 300mm, Rear 100mm 

 

 

 

 

If the Range is to be installed in a non-combustible recess it is recommended that 

 

100mm clearance is left at the back and sides for maintenance and to allow air to 

 

circulate around the Range. 

Note that any connecting flue (whether single skin or insulated) used in the 
installation should be installed in accordance with the requirements of the applicable 
national and local regulations and the applicable safety distances applied to the flue. 
(In the UK this is the Building regulations part J) 

5.4 

Floor   

 

 

National and local building regulations must be complied with when considering the 

 

floor or hearth where the Range is to be installed. The floor must be capable of  

bearing the weight of the Range (90kg). 

5.5 

Access for cleaning 

Although access to the flue can be gained by removing the Flue box cover plates on 
the Range, consideration must be given to installing extra access in the flue system
