GAS SUPPLY PIPE INSTALLATION
The nature of a drop in gas fireplace is such that for most applications it would be necessary to route the gas
supply line through the floor. All relevant codes and regulations laid down by the Gas Supply Authorities, Uniform
Building Regulations and requirements of Local Municipal Authorities must be adhered to. This must comply with
the requirements of the national standard SANS 10087-1
It is recommended that the installation of the gas supply line be completed before attempting to install the gas
burner.
INSTALLING THE FRAME
NOTE: Before starting preparations for installing the frame, the position of the unit should be planned. Do not start
any installation until the complete manual has been studied. Special attention should be paid to:
•
Clearance distances.
•
Routing of gas supply pipes.
An example of a typical installation into a bricked platform is used to explain all installation requirements. The same
distances and guidelines apply to all other installation layouts.

The structure into which the unit is installed must be equipped with an air opening to supply fresh air to the base of
