Refer to the minimum framing dimensions as per table 2. Allow a temporary lintel height (see table
2 ‘B’) from the finished floor protector level until the firebox and flue system is installed. Install front
nogs on edge to increase chimney chase dimension.
Ensure suitable air vents (2 x 160mm diameter or equivalent) in place to vent firebox space - these
maybe located in the floor or in the side wall space. Ensure vents must be bird and vermin proofed.
