6. FIREPLACE CHECK
6.1 Fireplace check.
6.1.1 Fireplace size.
The fireplace must comply with the requirements described in section 4.2. This will
probably entail removing the fireback and infill material behind the fireback. The debris
catchment area shown in figure 7 must be kept clear of obstructions.
6.1.2 Fireplace general condition.
The fireplace floor should be reasonably flat to ensure that the convection box can be
installed without it rocking and so that a good seal can be made at the bottom front of
the box. The front face of the fireplace should be reasonably flat over the area
covered by the convection box top and side flange seals to ensure good sealing.
These faces should be made good if necessary. If the appliance is to be fitted against
a wall with combustible cladding, the cladding must be removed from the area
covered by the fascia. The cladding must also not touch the fascia (See figure 4). We
suggest that the actual fascia is used as a template to mark the area for combustible
cladding removal and that this area is increased by at least 2mm all round.
6.1.3 Soundness for appliance attachment
Two primary methods of retaining the appliance are provided: -
1)
By fixing to the fireplace front surround.
2) Using concealed
tension cables fixed to the
rear of the fireplace
opening together with
secondary fixing to the
fireplace floor.
The methods are detailed
in section 10 of this
manual. Before selecting
the retention method,
consult with the customer.
Method 2 is provided for
instances where drilling
holes in the front surface of
the fireplace surround is
unacceptable to the
customer or otherwise
impractical.
N.B. It is unwise to attempt to drill into marble without the proper tools and
equipment .
If method 1 is chosen, make sure that the front surround area is sound enough to take
the fibre / wooden plugs and woodscrews. If necessary, make sound with suitable
cement.
If method 2 is chosen, make sure that the areas at the back and towards the centre of
Figure 7. Fireplace area.
