5.7 Fireplace clearances.

5.7.1

The minimum allowable distance from the outside of the appliance fascia to a

corner wall having combustible material or any other combustible surface which
projects beyond the front of the appliance is 100mm at either side (See figure 2). A
clearance of 100mm should be maintained at the right side in all installations to allow
satisfactory access to the control knob. Although no side clearance is necessary to
non-combustible surfaces on the left hand side we recommend a 100mm clearance
for service access to the fascia side fixings.

5.7.2

Allow a minimum clearance of 

150mm

from the top surface of the appliance

fascia to the underside of any shelf whether it is made from 

non-combustible

materials. This clearance is necessary to allow the fascia to be lifted off for servicing.  
For a shelf made from 

wood or other combustible materials deeper than 150mm,

the minimum clearance must be as below.
• 

For a shelf up to 150mm deep

: Minimum clearance = 150mm.

• 

For a shelf deeper than 150mm

: 150mm + 12.5mm for every 25mm depth over

150mm (See figure 3).
Important : No combustible material (e.g. Wallpaper, plastic tiling, wood panelling etc.)
must be used on the fireplace wall below the shelf.
