Additional notes for car ports and other single storey 'add-on' extensions

1.  Any carport or other add-on extension should consist of a roof, or a roof and one other

wall. If it consists of a roof and two other walls, the installation shall be treated as
suspect and further advice sought.

2.  If there is any opening in the carport into the dwelling, e.g. door, window, etc., then the

terminal must be at least 1200mm away from that opening. If it is less then the
installation must be treated as suspect and further advice sought. If it is more than
1200mm then D, F, H and I shall also apply where D is the vertical distance between
the lowest point of the roof and the top of the terminal.

3.  If the roof is plastic then the installation should be treated with great care as there is

no simple way of protecting the roof.

Clearances

Soft furnishings, decorations and some wall coverings may discolour or scorch if positioned too
close to the fire.
If a shelf is to be fitted above the fire, perhaps as part of a surround, it must be positioned a
minimum of 1m (39in.) above the top of the hearth, and project no more than 200mm (8in.) from
the front plane of the opening. Combustible material such as wood may be fitted to within
100mm (4in.) of either side of the opening so long as it projects no more than 100mm (4in.) from
the front plane of the opening.
