Each installa�on is unique to the property so it is not possible to give details to suit every se�ng. The installa�on must comply
with local and na�onal Building Regula�ons and be made using best prac�ce construc�on methods.
Many fireplace openings have a suppor�ng lintel. Do not remove without suppor�ng the remaining structure of the
building.
Do not support the structure with the flue system or the appliance .
The flue system must be fully installed and supported according to the manufacturer’s instruc�ons BEFORE the appliance is
installed.
1a Take care when installing the appliance. Careless handling and use of tools can damage the finish and/or area .
1b Remove all internal components before proceeding. Manoeuvring this appliance into the builders opening will
require 2 people.
1c Check the opera�on of the air control and direc�on slider to ensure it operates smoothly . Do not fit the appliance if
the slider is stuck.
Appliance
It is recommended that the appliance is level on the hearth, providing secure posi�oning for the stove . There are 4 feet on
the base of the stove which can be adjusted using the tool supplied with the stove. These feet should not be removed as they
allow air to circulate around the appliance.
Load bearing base
Ensure that the bo�om of the convec�on box is installed on a load bearing base with the strength to support the weight of the
insert and the chimney. The load bearing base must not prevent the convec�on air to ven�late the area between the insert and
recess.
Hearth plate
Due to the risk of falling embers, a flammable floor must be protected by a hearth plate. It must extend 300 mm in front of the
stove and 100 mm on each side of the stove, or have a 200 mm extension on each side of the opening. The hearth plate can
consist of natural stone, concrete, metal plate or glass, consult the Building regula�ons.

feet. This must be done before connec�ng the flue.
2b Slide the appliance into the opening taking care not to damage the hearth. Check that the fit is suitable and the appliance
is in the correct posi�on and level.

flue liner system.
4c Do not connect the stove or flue system into large voids that could exist in older chimney systems. If this is the case
consider using a flue lining system or closure plate to improve the opera�on of the appliance. Lining a large void around
the stove with an insula�ng material, i.e. rockwool, is recommended. Before li�ing the appliance into posi�on on the
hearth connect the Flue Liner/Pipe to the Flue Collar
