Prior to installing your Metro fireplace insert into a fireplace
cavity, it is important that certain clearances and other
requirements are complied with as detailed below :-
Fireplace Cavity
The chimney must be swept. Also: -
- Check for cracks and general overall condition. If repairs
are necessary, they must be carried out by a suitably
qualified person.
- Check the cavity dimensions to ensure the fireplace insert
will fit. It is usually necessary to remove the fire bricks from
the lower fireplace cavity.
- The base of the fireplace cavity on which the Metro
fireplace insert will rest must be level. If it is not, it should be
levelled using mortar.
- If an ash removal door exists in the base of the fireplace
cavity it should be sealed shut to prevent air entering the
cavity.
- If a timber or combustible mantelshelf exists above the
fireplace opening, it should be a minimum distance of
460mm above the top of the Metro’s fascia.
If less than the above minimum specified, a deflector or heat
shield will be required to be fitted under the mantelshelf or to
the top of the fascia.
