The sides and back of the appliance may be installed directly onto a non-combustible surfaces.
A non combustible shelf of any depth may be positioned above the appliance provided it is no closer than 200 mm from the top
of the appliance glass panel and the wall above the appliance is non combustible. The shelf itself and any articles placed on it must
also be tolerant of high temperatures.
Clearances to combustible materials
Combustible materials are defined as wood, fabrics, or other materials likely to combust if exposed to flame. Generally, any mate-
rial, which is likely to discolour, melt or misshape when exposed to moderate heat, should be considered as a combustible mate-
rial or surface. Clearance to the sides of the appliance facia are 100mm (4”) but curtains, drapes and other fabrics are not per-
mitted within a distance of 500mm (20”) of the appliance sides. No such materials are permitted directly above the appliance
regardless of distance. The minimum clearance to the ceiling above the appliance is 800mm (31.5”) measured from the top of the
appliance glass panel. Combustible materials should not be positioned directly in front of the appliance within a distance of one
metre. A combustible shelf may be fixed to the wall above the fire, providing that it complies with the dimensions given below.
The shelf depth may be greater but the height must also be increased accordingly. An increase in height of 25 mm is required for
every 12.5 mm of additional shelf depth. For shelves that are too low protective devices can be used such as metal heat deflec-
tors, but it must be assured that the shelf does not reach an unacceptable temperature before relying on such a solution. Under
no circumstances should any electrical equipment e.g. plasma screen TV sets etc. be positioned on the wall above the appliance.
Clearance to the sides and rear of the firebox are a 75mm (3“) air-gap. Clearance to the top of the firebox is a 100mm (4”) air-
gap. It should be established that any mirrors or picture frames etc. to be positioned on the wall above the appliance are able to
withstand prolonged exposure to moderate heat and moisture before proceeding with their installation. If the appliance is to be
mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed construction wall then the integrity and ability of the wall to support the appli-
ance (e.g. so it can not be pulled from the wall) must be confirmed. It is important in these circumstances that any vapour con-
trol barrier is not damaged, and that any structural members of the house frame are not damaged - refer to section 6.5.
A minimum of 100 cm
2
purpose provided ventilation is required for this appliance. This may be achieved either with one vent 100
cm
2
at a high or low position in the room, or split ventilation i.e. 50cm
2
be installed at high level and 50cm
2
be installed at low
level within the room. An openable window or equivalent is also required.
To reduce the possibility of draughts, road noise or insects entering the room via the air vent, we recommend the use of “Black
Hole”, “Vortex” or “Centurion” type vents featuring internal baffles. The requirements of any other gas, oil or solid fuel appliances
operating in the same room or space must be taken into consideration when assessing ventilation.
Any ventilation fitted must comply with BS 5440 part 2.
Ventilation fitted under, or within immediate vicinity of the appliance must not be used as it may adversely effect performance of
the ODS system. For Republic of Ireland refer to the current edition of IS813 and any relevant rules in force. The appliance shall
not be installed within 1 metre of any existing air vent, and any new air vent shall not be installed within 1 metre of the appliance.
