1 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE!
The installation may only be carried out by an authorised
person.
1.1 General instructions
•
The gas fireplace must be installed, connected and
inspected as a closed unit by a qualified fitter, according
to national, regional, and local standards and regulations.
•
The flue tube system and the outlets in the outer wall or
roof face must also meet the requirements outlined in
the applicable standards and regulations.
•
The temperature of the walls and shelves near the side
and back of the unit may not be more than 80 K higher
than the temperature of the environment. For example,
ambient temperature 20 °C plus 80 K gives a maximum
temperature of 100 °C.
•
The unit has been approved in combination with the
concentric flue system THC/Holetherm CC Ø100/Ø150mm
in accordance with European CE standards for gas units,
and may therefore only be applied with this system.
•
The unit needs to be inspected by the fitter for local gas
distribution (gas type and gas pressure) as indicated on
the identification plate.
•
The instructions are only applicable if the relevant country
code is stated on the unit.
•
If this is not the case, the gas technical information for the
relevant country needs to be consulted and modifications
discussed with the manufacturer.
•
There will be air in the gas pipes when the unit is first used.
The gas pipes therefore need to be vented first.
•
Ignite the heater according to operating instructions and
check whether the burner flame is uniform. After the unit
has been used for the first time, any deposits resulting
from convection-curing of the unit must be removed
from the glass pane using a glass cleaner for heaters.
Distance from flammable materials:
A distance of 1000mm must be maintained from the front,
side and top of the unit to curtains, coverings and fabrics,
and/or other combustible material unless otherwise stated
in this instruction.
Distance to non-flammable materials:
The unit needs to be placed a minimum distance of 10mm
from the wall unless stated otherwise in these instructions.
WARNING
Gas fires become hot when they are in operation. After
installing the appliance the glass surface is considered
active zone. The glass surface can become very hot!
Attention! Accordingly, care should be taken, for example
children and needy in the vicinity of burning fires are
banned. Gas fires must not be on or against flammable
materials are placed (curtains etc.).
Never install the unit against or within a flammable wall!
NOTICE
Construction material for fireplaces and mantles etc.
or built-in situation, must be made of non-combustible
material. This also applies to floors and ceilings.
Never use flammable materials near the unit in compliance
with the above requirements.
If in doubt, consult your dealer.
2 INSTALLING THE UNIT
NOTE!
Before putting the unit in place, we recommend you first
read Chapter
9 Concentric flue system
.
2.1 Connection to the gas pipes
You can determine where the gas pipes will be placed,
dependent on the layout. Ensure control equipment is not
twisted during installation and there is no excessive tension.
Accessibility of various connection points in relation to
components needs to be maintained. After installation, check
the connection seals are gastight. Use a 3/8″ gas tap with
a connector. Ensure the gas pipes are free of dirt and soil or
sand and that the gas and combustion controls in the various
components and all appliance functions operate correctly.
The gas supply should only be connected up when the
electricity supply is disconnected. Failing to do so may cause
damage to the gas control equipment.
