Minimum clearances
All Metro wood fires comply with AS/NZS2918:2001. Minimum clearances
shown below are detailed in millimetres, with a Pioneer double flue
shield fitted to the appliance. Measurements are taken from the following
reference points as illustrated:
- From the nearest combustible wall or surface (A, B, D, E, G, H)
- From the Metro’s flue centre (A, B, C, D)
- From the Metro’s cabinet/heatshield outermost point (E, F, G, H)
- To the edge of the ash floor protectors non-combustible surface
(C, F, I, J, K, L, M)
AS/NZS2918:2001 allows for a reduction in minimum clearances as
detailed in Section 3, tables 3.1 and 3.2 of the standard.
Some Metro models have undergone additional testing which allows for
reduced clearances. Please see the footnotes below the clearance table for
the applicable models.
Wetback connections (taken facing the Metro/wall)
• ECO Tiny Ped and ECO Tiny Rad models are 92mm left of the flue centre
• The Tiny Rad Woody model is 184mm left of the flue centre
• Wee Series models are 226mm left of the flue centre
• The Classic Rad model is 184mm left of the flue centre
• All other models are 140mm left of the flue centre
Specifications were correct at the time of printing, but may alter and those

The Wee Rad installed with a Pioneer double flue shield with the Wee Rad corner wing shields fitted allows for reduced clearances as follows:
1
Wee Rad corner clearance (E) can be reduced to 120mm. This in turn also reduces clearances (D) to 425mm, (K) to 1180mm and (L) to 985mm. When fitting the corner wing
shields, the Wee Rad itself must be installed to a corner clearance (E) of 120mm. The corner wing shields are then fitted which gives a wall to shield corner clearance of 100mm.
The following models installed with a Pioneer double flue shield with the side extensions fitted allows for reduced clearances as follows:
2
Wee Ped corner clearance (E) can be reduced to 115mm. This in turn also reduces clearances (D) to 436mm, (K) to 1197mm and (L) to 996mm.
3
Classic Rad corner clearance (E) can be reduced to 180mm. This in turn also reduces clearances (D) to 460mm, (K) to 1430mm and (L) to 1127mm.
