The minimum clearance to the ceiling above the appliance is 800mm (31.5”) measured from the top of the appliance glass panel.
Combustible materials should not be positioned directly in front of the appliance within a distance of one metre.
Under no circumstances should any electrical equipment e.g. plasma/LCD screen TV sets etc. be positioned on the wall above the
appliance. The appliance is designed to be wall mounted alone and not in conjunction with any type of combustible fire surround.
No combustible shelves should be positioned on the wall above the appliance. It should be established that any mirrors or pic-
ture frames etc. to be positioned on the wall above the appliance are able to withstand prolonged exposure to moderate heat
and moisture before proceeding with their installation.
The back of the appliance may be installed directly onto a combustible wall, providing it is relatively flat and does not interfere
with the various vent holes in the back panel of the appliance. The wall must be structurally sound and constructed from a mate-
rial capable of withstanding moderate heat. Brick, concrete, finished plaster, most types of conventional wall paper and dry-lined
plasterboard are usually examples of suitable materials, however as there are many methods of wall construction and many vari-
ations in the composition of construction materials, in some circumstances, cracking may occur to plasterwork. Materials such
as flock, blown vinyl and embossed paper which are sensitive to even small amounts of heat should be avoided as scorching and
or discolouration may occur over time. Avoid siting the appliance near joins or joints in plasterboard as exposure to moderate
heat may cause cracking along the joint line.
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed construction wall 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 control bar-
rier is not damaged, and that any structural members of the house frame are not damaged - refer to section 7.0.
The appliance must not be positioned vertically within 100 mm (4”) of a carpeted floor, rugs or fabric materials of any kind. This
dimension is measured vertically to the bottom of the appliance firebox.
A minimum of 100 cm
2
purpose provided ventilation MUST be provided for this appliance. This may be achieved either with one
vent 100 cm
2
at a high or low position in the room, or split ventilation i.e. 50cm
2
be installed at high level and 50cm
2
be installed
at low level within the room. An openable window or equivalent is also required.
To reduce the possibility of draughts, road noise or insects entering the room via the air vent, we recommend the use an air vent
of the type that feature internal baffles. The requirements of any other gas, oil or solid fuel appliances operating in the same room
or space must be taken into consideration when assessing ventilation. Any ventilation fitted must comply with BS 5871 part 4
and BS 5440 part 2.
Ventilation fitted under, or within immediate vicinity of the appliance must not be used as it may adversely effect performance of
the ODS system. The appliance shall not be installed within one metre of any existing air vent, and any new air vent shall not be
installed within one metre of the appliance.
For Republic of Ireland refer to the current edition of IS813 and any relevant rules in force.
