On models with fire front casting sets this is necessary to support the ‘ash pan’
casting. The hearth / plinth will minimise the visibility of the heat engine components.
For installations that are not elevated.
This appliance does not require a non-combustible hearth. It can be installed on any
hard surface. This surface should be level and sufficiently flat to enable the bottom of
the fascia / fire front / castings to be aligned horizontally. Any unevenness (Uneven
tiles, Cotswold stone etc.) should be rectified.
The appliance must not stand on carpet or other textured surfaces which may
interfere with the flow of convection air through the bottom of the appliance.
The floor surface that must be free of carpets, rugs or other fabric coverings should
be at least as wide as the appliance fascia and project forward at least 300mm from
the rear wall. In order to prevent carpet etc. being placed within this area, we strongly
recommend that the appliance is installed on a raised hearth or that the periphery of
this area is bordered by a fender.
