Before commencing Installation, confirm that the details on the appliance
data plate correspond to the local distribution conditions, gas type and
pressure to which the appliance is to be installed.
Ensure that gas supply and supply pipe is capable of delivering the
required volume and pressure of gas and is in accordance with the rules
in force.
GAS CONNECTION
VENTILATION
This appliance is a Balanced Flue room sealed appliance, and as such
needs no additional ventilation. However an adequate supply of fresh air to
maintain temperatures and a comfortable environment is recommended.
This appliance may be installed in a completely sealed or mechanically
ventilated house.
APPLIANCE INSTALLATION
Determine the position required for the appliance.
Create a gas connection for the appliance in approximately the correct
location for the gas controls.
The gas controls are connected to the Burner of the appliance.
This appliance must be securely fixed to the floor using the fixings built
into the base of the appliance.
Do not make any adjustments to the appliance.
The appliance and Flue system should be fitted with a minimum clearance
of 500mm from any combustible objects or materials; this includes any
combustible materials used for the fireplace construction.
As this is a room sealed appliance and the appliance stands appropriately
and is securely fixed to the floor, a hearth is not required for this appliance.
A gap of 100mm should be left all round the appliance.
FLUE CONNECTION
A. GENERAL NOTES
This appliance may be installed with a roof terminal (C31) or a wall terminal
(C11).
This appliance may only be used with Balanced Flue (otherwise known
as Concentric Flue) parts as specified by Focus. The Focus specified flue
parts have been approved with the appliance. If the appliance is installed
on non-Focus approved parts, Focus cannot guarantee or accept and
responsibility for the proper and safe working of the appliance.
The flue system must be constructed from the appliance upwards, with all
joints being fully locked and sealed using the Focus specified parts.
B. TIMBER FRAME CONSTRUCTION
Whilst it is possible to install room-sealed appliances in timber frame
properties, great care needs to be taken to ensure that the flue assembly
does not interfere with the weather proofing qualities of any outer wall
which it may penetrate. Before attempting this work, further details need
to be referenced, (e.g. “Gas Installations in Timber Frame Buildings” from
the CORGI installer series in the UK).
C. CARPORT OR BUILDING EXTENSION
Where a flue terminal is sited within a carport or building extension, it
should have at least two completely open and unobstructed sides. The
distance between the lowest part of the roof and the top of the terminal
should be at least 600mm.
Note: A covered passageway should not be treated as a carport. Flues
should not be sited in a covered passageway between properties.
D. BASEMENTS, LIGHTWELLS AND RETAINING WALLS
Flue terminals should not be sited within the confines of a basement area,
light well or external space formed by a retaining wall, unless steps are
taken to ensure the products of combustion can disperse safely at all
times. It may be possible to install this Balanced Flue system in such a
location provided that it is not sited lower than 1m from the top level of that
area to allow combustion products to disperse safely.
Flue terminals should be sited to ensure total clearance of the combustion
products in accordance with the included information.
When the products of combustion are discharged, they should not cause a
nuisance to adjoining or adjacent properties and they should be positioned
so that damage cannot occur to other parts of the building. If the outer wall
surface is constructed of combustible material, a non-combustible plate
should be fitted behind the terminal projecting 25mm beyond the external
edges of the terminal.
