Introduction 

This heater has been designed for fitting in the space behind the plinth of floor standing kitchen units or other fitted furniture 
units.    It  is  recommended  that  the  heater  is  not  installed  under  cupboards  used  for  storing  perishable  goods.    It  can  be 
accommodated in plinths with a minimum height of 120mm, and is suitable for cupboards of 500mm width and above. 
 

 

Installation 

The  installation  of  this  appliance  should  be  carried  out  by  a  competent  electrician  and  be  in accordance with the current 
IEE wiring regulations. 

Before undertaking installation work, ensure the electricity supply is disconnected from any relevant fixed wiring.

 

 

The  heater  is  more  easily  fitted  during  the  installation  of  new  furniture  units,  or  on  existing  furniture  units  if  they  can  be 
temporarily  moved  from  their  position  against  the  wall.    If  an  existing  furniture  unit  cannot  be  moved,  then  it  may  be 
necessary to remove the back of the unit in order to gain access to carry out the wiring installation. 
Before installing the unit consider the location with respect to the following; 

 

The electrical supply and cable length. 

 

Position  heater  to  deliver  heat  effectively  without  causing  personal  discomfort  from  overheating  while  standing  at 
work surfaces etc. 

        Minimum plinth height of 120mm and minimum furniture unit width of 500mm. 

 

Procedure  

 

1.  Cutting the aperture in the Plinth

  

Cut aperture in furniture unit plinth to dimensions shown.

 

  

This  must  be  positioned  so  that  the  minimum  distance 
from the bottom of the aperture to the TOP surface 
of any floor covering is not less than 12mm and not 
more than 25mm. 
 
If  an  overhang  above  the  heater  is  greater  than 
75mm, then a distance of at least 100mm must be 
maintained  between  the  overhang  and  the 
uppermost part of the heater. 

Note: 

If  fitted  in  corner  with  adjacent  cupboards 

to  left  hand  side  of  heater  then  a  distance  of  at 
least  150mm  must  be  maintained  between  the  left 
hand  end  of  the  heater  and  the  front  of  the 
adjacent cupboard door. 
 
*This dimension must be maintained above the top 
surface  of  any  floor  covering  material.    All 
dimensions in millimetres.
