Installation overview
Complete framing and base panel
, p.12-16.
Prepare gas and electrical connections, and cavity ventilation
.
Fit the Linear
Move the Linear into the cavity. Tip forward slightly to get the two back feet in first. To reduce the
weight you can remove the glass first (p.20). The Linear as adjustable feet on all corners. Use these
feet to level the fire. This is critical so the wall lining can be installed flush to the lips of the fire. Once
level, secure the Linear to the base of the enclosure using the four brackets, which also act as
seismic restraints (p.19).
Complete the gas connection
To access the gas connection and gas control, remove the screws holding the Wi-Fi panel in place
(refer image on p.28 for Wi-Fi assembly position). At this stage also check the flue configuration to
see if a dip switch change is required. Check for gas leaks.
Fit the flue
, refer p.36-47 for more information.
Commission with the glass off
Follow the commissioning instructions, p. 21-24.
Install the burn media
Placement of the burn media is critical to the performance and safe operation of the appliance. Refer
p.26 for more information.
Install the glass front
Reinstall the glass front, check operation of the fire, check the remote and Wi-Fi module is working
(p.28).
Complete final framing and install the wall lining
Complete the final framing once you are satisfied the fire is working correctly
—
there will be limited
access to the unit once final framing is completed.
Install the wall lining as one piece (so it doesn’t crack), with a cutout for the glass,
up to
the lips of
the unit. DO NOT go over the lips. There is an air gap of at least 3 mm around the lips of the fire,
which is CRITICAL to safe operation, to ensure air flow in and around the unit.
Fix the wall lining in place. We recommend gluing as screws will transfer heat, and during installation
there is the potential to damage some controls of the fire if screws are used, refer p. 29-35 for more
information.
N.B
: For new builds the final stage could be completed prior to commissioning.

Helpful tips
To level the unit and not affect where the feet go, the seismic brackets need to be elevated
once the unit is off the pallet.
We STRONGLY recommend the gas is on to check the inlet pressure as access to controls
after the wall lining is on is more difficult.
