Wall mounting bracket
This appliance is designed to be wall mounted using the mounting bracket and fixings provided. The wall should be relatively flat and not
interfere with any of the ventilation slots in the rear panel.
The wall must be structurally sound and of a material capable of withstanding moderate heat. Finished plaster, conventional wallpaper,
dry-lined plaster board are examples of suitable materials. Materials such as flock, blown vinyl, embossed paper and cloth wall coverings which
are sensitive to even small amounts of heat should be avoided, as some discolouration may occur.
It should be noted that the appliance creates warm convected air currents. These currents move heat from the room surroundings to, and up
the wall surfaces adjacent to the heater.
Installing the heater next to these types of wall coverings or operating the heater where impurities in the air, (such as tobacco smoke) exist,
may slightly discolour wall finishing.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined or timber framed construction then the integrity and ability of the wall to carry the weight
of the appliance must be confirmed. It is important in these circumstances that any vapour barrier and/or structural members of the house
frame are not damaged.
If you are unsure of the ability of the wall to carry the weight and/or which type of wall fixing to use, you should take professional advice and
obtain the correct fixings. Alternatively, find a more suitable wall location.
DO NOT
• mount on a ceiling or floor
• recess any part of the appliance into the wall, or run the supply cable under carpets
• site any electrical equipment e.g. plasma screen TV sets etc, on the wall below the appliance.
• site in a position where curtains or drapes could cover the appliance, or other soft materials could cover e.g. below a coat rack
• site behind an opening door where mechanical impact/damage could occur
• site where the supply cable would become a trip hazard
• sit, stand or forcefully pull on the appliance
• obstruct, cover or force items into the openings
• use the heater to dry clothes
• site/use in an outdoor location(s)
It is important that the following clearances are maintained from the appliance to combustible materials. These clearances are dependent on
the mounting location as defined below:
• The minimum distance from the top of the appliance to a ceiling is 300mm
• The minimum distance from the bottom of the appliance to the floor is 200mm
• The minimum distance to the sides of the appliance is 100mm
• The minimum distance to the front of the appliance is 500mm
CAUTION: DO NOT CONNECT THE APPLIANCE TO THE
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AT THIS TIME.
Focal Point Fires plc. assumes absolutely no responsibility for injuries and damages that may
occur due to improper installation or handling.
Remove any protective film coatings from the finished/decorative surfaces of the appliance, if
any. After having selected the final mounting position of the appliance taking into account the
integrity of the wall the firebox of the appliance may be secured to the wall.
To ensure customer safety, be sure to design the installation so that the strength of both the
wall and any wall fixings used are sufficient. The appliance should not be installed until all wet
plastering and/or dry wall sanding and wall painting has been completed. Do not block the
ventilation holes of the appliance. The wall onto which the appliance is installed must be flat.
Install only on a vertical surface. Avoid sloped surfaces. Installation onto anything other than
a vertical wall may result in fire, damage or injury.
If the appliance is to be mounted on the inner leaf of a conventional cavity brick wall, or a
solid wall, then the wall plugs and fixing screws provided may be used. Depending on the
condition of the wall it may be necessary to use additional fixings. In this situation, any
additional fixings and wallplugs should be of the same size and type as the ones provided.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed construction wall then efforts should be made to fix in at least two

8.0 INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE
3
The wall where the appliance is to be
installed must be capable of
long-term support of the total load of
the appliance. Measures should also
be taken to ensure sufficient strength
to withstand the force of
earthquakes, vibration and other
external forces. Plasterboard alone is
not considered to be a structural
material. It is not recommended to
rely on plasterboard fixings alone to
support the weight of the appliance.
