Installation Requirements
This gas fire is intended for decorative purposes. The installation must be in
accordance with National Regulations and must be carried out by a qualified
Gas Safe Registered installer. Building work should only commence after a
thorough survey of the intended location of the impending installation has been
completed and it has been established that the unit can be installed and
operated without risk to the owner or tenants of the property or their
neighbours.
This fire must be installed and used in accordance with these instructions.
Prior to installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions (identification
of the type of gas and pressure and the adjustment of the appliance) are
compatible.
Clearances between the fire and all combustible materials must conform to
National Regulations. The builders opening or fireplace opening must be
constructed of a non- combustible material.
For some countries a non-combustible hearth must be fitted in front of the fire
in accordance with National Regulations (e.g. United Kingdom).
Before the fire is installed a flue test in accordance with National Regulations
should be carried out. Any flue damper plate or flue restrictor must be
removed or fixed permanently in the fully open position, or shall only be fitted
in accordance with National Regulations.
Where existing chimney systems are to be used in conjunction they should
have been swept and undergone thorough examination to ensure that they are
in a sound and safe condition, as well as providing an adequate draw when the
gas fire unit is in operation. A simple smoke test will reveal whether or not the
chimney is working correctly. If the chimney has been used with a solid fuel
appliance in the past it must be swept before the appliance is installed. The
unit must not be installed unless the chimney/flue length is at least the
distance indicated on page 4 (minimum flue height). The fire and flue system
should be checked regularly to ensure that it is free from obstruction.
Check gas pipe work to ensure the correct flow rate for the appliance.
There are two versions (check data plate) and the minimum flue requirements
for the fires are:
o
FR-850-V – Class 1 or 180mm flue of minimum 2 meters
o
FR-850-NV – Class 2 or 130mm flue of minimum 3 meters (this
model can also be used with the same flue as the FR-850-V)
