3. APPLIANCE DATA
Under no circumstances is this fire to be converted to LPG. An LPG conversion kit does
not exist for this gas fire.
The appliance data label is located on a plate at the base of the fire. This can be seen by
lifting the bottom front cover of the fascia.
This product uses fuel effect pieces containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF),
which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to these materials
may cause irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Consequently, it is
important to take care when handling these articles to ensure that the release of
dust is kept to a minimum. To ensure that the release of fibres from these RCF
articles is kept to a minimum, during installation and servicing we recommend that
you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any dust and soot accumulated in and
around the fire before and after working on the fire. When replacing these articles
we recommend that the replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within a
heavy duty polythene bag, clearly labelled as RCF waste. RCF waste is classed as a
stable, non-reactive hazardous waste and may be disposed at a landfill licensed to
accept such waste. Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles,
but we recommend you follow the normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or
drinking in the work area and always wash your hands before eating or drinking.
This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from asbestos or asbestos
related products.

a) The current edition of IS 813 “Domestic gas installations”
b) All relevant national and local rules in force.
Where no specific instructions are given, reference should be made to the relevant
British Standard Code of Practice.
4.2
In the United Kingdom, as supplied, the appliance can be installed in the following
situations: -
4.2.1 To a fireplace complete with surround and hearth as shown in figure 1 and
complying with BS1251 after removal of the fireback and sufficient material behind the
fireback for a debris catchment space. The required fireplace, hearth, debris catchment
area and clearance dimensions are shown in figure 1.
4.2.2 ‘Hole-in-the-wall’ installations.
It is recommended that a hearth should be installed as in figure 1.
If a hearth is not fitted, the fire must be installed so that the distance from the base of
the fireplace opening in the wall to the finished floor level is at least 85mm.Where there
is no floor covering or carpet and the floor is of a type that is likely to be covered in
such a way then the distance from the base of the fireplace opening in the wall to the
finished floor level should be increased to at least 160mm. The minimum shelf height
will have to be taken from the base of the fireplace opening.
!
To protect from the risk of burns and ignition of clothing a tactile separator shall be
used. The hearth detailed in section 4.9 meets the requirements for a tactile separator. If
Page 8

Figure 1. Hearth and fireplace opening dimensions

this is not used then a 672mm long
fender, kerb, horizontal bar, or other
barrier, being fixed not less than
50mm above floor level and
positioned 300mm in front of the
fixing plane of the fire will meet the
requirement.
4.2.3 To a fireplace incorporating a
metal flue box complying with the
constructional requirements of the
current edition of BS715. The
dimensions of the flue box must
conform to those shown in figure 2.
4.2.4 A precast concrete or clay flue
block system conforming to BS1289
or BS EN 1806 with dimensions as in
figure 3 or using a 05654K1 spacer
kit. (Installation Instructions part
number 3003095). The current
versions of BS1289 and BS EN
1806 recommend that there should
be an air space or insulation
between the flue blocks and the
plaster because heat transfer may
cause cracking on directly plastered
flues. However, generally this
appliance is suitable for installations
under all circumstances unless there
is a history of cracking problems.
Remember that faults such as
cracking may be caused by poorly
built and restrictive flues, e.g.
mortar extrusions, too many bends,
flue heights below three metres,
restrictive terminations etc (See
figure3).
4.2.5 If the fireplace opening is
greater than the acceptable
dimensions given in this guide, do
not use the back of a fire surround
or marble to reduce the opening.
Page 9
INSTALLER GUIDE

Figure 3. Precast or clay flue block system
dimensions
Figure 2. Metal flue box

This may cause cracking of the surround back or marble.
4.3 Suitable flues and minimum flue sizes are as follows: -
It should be noted that, as with many appliances, sharp bends or horizontal runs in
metal flues at the top of the system can be a cause of problems in these types of
installation.
! 225mm x 225mm conventional brick flue.
! 175mm diameter lined brick or stone flue.
! 200mm diameter factory made insulated flue manufactured to BS4543.
! 175mm diameter flue pipe. See BS6461 Part 1 for suitable materials.
! Single wall, twin wall or flexible flue liner with a minimum diameter of 125mm.
The materials to be used are stainless steel or aluminium as specified in BS715. The
liner must be sealed to the surrounding area above the fireplace opening and to the top
of the chimney. An approved terminal must be fitted.
!
A properly constructed precast concrete or clay flue system conforming to BS1289
or BS EN 1806. This system is only suitable if the conditions stated in section 4.2.4 are
met.
4.4 The flue must conform to BS 5440: Part 1 in design and installation.
The flue, measured from the bottom of the fireplace opening to the bottom of the
terminal, shall be not less than 3m in actual vertical height. When calculated in
accordance with BS 5440: Part 1 Annex A, the minimum equivalent
height of the flue
shall be 2.0m of 125mm-dia. flue pipe.
4.5 The flue must not be used for any other appliance or application.
4.6
Any chimney damper or restrictor should be removed. If removal is not possible,
they must be secured in the open position.
4.7
If the appliance is intended to be installed to a chimney that was previously used
for solid fuel, the flue must be swept clean prior to installation. All flues should be
inspected for soundness and freedom from blockages.
4.8 If the fireplace opening is an underfloor draught type, it must be sealed to stop
any draughts.
4.9 The appliance must be mounted behind a non-combustible hearth (N.B.
conglomerate marble hearths are considered as non-combustible). The appliance can be
fitted to a purpose made proprietary class “O”-150°C surround. The hearth material
must be at least 12mm thick. The periphery of the hearth (or fender) should be at least
50mm above floor level to discourage the placing of carpets or rugs over it.
The surface of the hearth must be sufficiently flat to enable the bottom of the fascia and
the bottom front cover to be aligned horizontally. Any excessive unevenness (uneven
Page 10

tiles, Cotswold stone, etc.) should be rectified.
The appliance must not stand on combustible materials or carpets.
4.10
The front face of the fireplace should be reasonably flat over the area covered by
the hotbox top and side flange seals to ensure good sealing. These faces should be made
good if necessary.
The fireplace floor should be reasonably flat to ensure that a good seal with the hotbox
can be made.
4.11 Note that soft wall coverings (e.g. embossed vinyl, etc.) are easily affected by
heat. They may scorch or become discoloured when close to a heating appliance. Please
bear this in mind when installing.
4.12
This appliance must not be installed in any room that contains a bath or shower or
where steam is regularly present.
4.13
An extractor fan may only be used in the same room as this appliance, or in any
area from which ventilation for the appliance is taken, if it does not affect the safe
performance of the appliance. Note the spillage test requirements detailed further on in
this manual. If the fan is likely to affect the appliance, the appliance must not be
installed unless the fan is permanently disconnected.
4.14 Normal adventitious ventilation is usually sufficient to satisfy the ventilation
requirements of this appliance. In GB reference should be made to BS 5871 Part 2 and
in IE reference should be made to the current edition of IS 813 “Domestic Gas
Installations” which makes clear the conditions that must be met to demonstrate that
sufficient ventilation is available.
Page 11
INSTALLER GUIDE

4.15 The minimum height from the base of the fireplace opening to the underside of
any shelf made from wood or other combustible materials is shown below: -
•For a shelf up to 150mm deep
Minimum height = 750mm.
•For a shelf deeper than 150mm
Minimum height = 750mm + 12.5mm for every 25mm depth over 150mm.
(See graph 1).
4.16 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. If the cladding projects forward from
the fixing plane of the fire the clearance at the
top of the appliance must be increased to a
minimum 15mm.This will allow for fascia
removal.
4.17 The minimum allowable distance from
the outside of the appliance fascia to a corner
wall having combustible material or any other
combustible surface which projects beyond the
Page 12

Figure 4. Removal of combustible
cladding
Graph 1. Combustible shelf clearances

front of the appliance is shown in figure 5.
4.18 Proprietary terminals must comply with BS 715 or BS 1289. Any terminal or
termination must be positioned in accordance with BS 5440 Part 1 to ensure that the
products of combustion can be safely dispersed into the outside atmosphere. Where the
appliance is connected to an unlined brick chimney it is generally unnecessary for the
chimney pot to be replaced or for a terminal to be fitted unless the flue has a diameter
smaller than 170mm.

4.19 The appliance is fitted with an A.S.D (Atmosphere sensing device). If the
appliance closes down after a period of operation for no apparent reason, the consumer
should be informed to stop using the appliance until the installation and appliance have
been thoroughly checked. The A.S.D will shut the appliance down if an unacceptable
amount of harmful products of combustion accumulate. Under no circumstances should
the A.S.D be altered or bypassed in any way. Only a genuine manufacturers replacement
part should be fitted. The individual A.S.D components are not replaceable.
4.20
A fireguard complying with BS 8423 should be fitted for the protection of young
children, the elderly, or the infirm.

Figure 6. Pack contents

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
hotbox 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 hotbox 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
A primary method of retaining the appliance is provided. This involves using concealed
tension cables fixed to the rear of the fireplace opening together with secondary fixing
to the fireplace floor. This method is detailed in section 10 of this manual. This method
is particularly useful 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.
Make sure that the areas at the back and towards the centre of the fireplace floor are
sound enough to take the eyebolts and screws. If these areas have deteriorated due to
prolonged use, they should be made sound with a suitable cement.
6.1.4 Installations using a metal flue box
The whole of the top surface of the metal flue box must be covered with a 100mm layer
of mineral wool or equivalent insulation (See figure 2).
Page 16
INSTALLER GUIDE
© Baxi Heating U.K. Limited 2007.
Figure 7. Fireplace area

6.2 Fireplace flue pull.
Close all doors and windows in the room in which the appliance is to be installed. After
confirming with a match that smoke is drawn into the flue, light a 13 gram smoke pellet
and check that there is a definite flow through the flue. Verify outside that the smoke
exits from one terminal only and that the termination is suitable. Observe where
possible, upstairs rooms and loft spaces for signs of escaping smoke indicating a
defective flue. If there is not a definite flow warm the flue for a few minutes and repeat
the smoke pellet test. If there is still no definite flow the flue may need remedial work –
Do not fit the appliance until there is a definite flow through the flue.
7. IGNITION CHECK
Before attempting to install, it is worth checking that the ignition system performs
satisfactorily.
Set the control knob to the off position.
Depress the control knob and rotate it anticlockwise to the pilot ignition position. A
'click' will be heard as the integral
piezo operates. A spark should be
seen between the electrode and pilot
tip. If there is no spark check the
following: -
! Ensure that the electrode lead is
connected to the terminal at the
base of the electrode.
! If the above is correct, check for
damage to the electrode lead.
8. GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION
A nut and olive are provided for an 8mm pipe inlet connection to the ‘T’ connector at
the bottom front of the appliance. The ‘T’ connector can be rotated to allow a
connection from any direction. The ‘T’ connector includes a valve for isolating the gas
supply and a pressure test point.
The supply pipe must be rigid material. Flexible pipe must not be used.
Concealed supply pipe connection.
If a concealed connection from inside the fireplace is required then, before the
appliance is fitted into the fireplace
it will be necessary to extend the supply line so
that it will project through the hole in the back of the hotbox and run to the ‘T’
connector at the front. The pipe run from the supply line up to the rear opening in the
Page 17
INSTALLER GUIDE
© Baxi Heating U.K. Limited 2007.
Figure 8. Ignition operation

hotbox must be kept away from the area which will be taken by the hotbox when it is
installed. Note that the centre of the appliance inlet ‘T’ connector is 25mm above the
fireplace floor. The inlet ‘T’ connector should be fitted to the supply pipe at this stage.
9. PREPARING APPLIANCE FOR INSTALLATION
1. Remove the two screws to the side of the burner unit.
2. Detach the burner unit from the hotbox by lifting clear.
3. It is important that the grommet supplied in the
loose parts pack is fitted to the hole in the rear of the
convection box.
4. For concealed connection only: Pierce the grommet to
allow the pipe to pass through it. The grommet should
envelop the pipe. If the hole is larger than the pipe, seal it
with tape. Do not pierce the grommet unless the supply
pipe is to pass through it.
5. The appliance is supplied with two fireback spacers. Do
not fit the fireback spacers if the fire is to be installed
into a precast or clay flue block system as in section
4.2.4. These should extend backwards to ensure sufficient
clearance from the back of the fireplace. Remove the label
and retaining screws from the rear sides of the hotbox.
Position the fireback spacer as shown in
figure 9. Secure the fireback spacers using
the screws removed previously and the two
supplied with the fire.
6. This appliance is supplied with a flue
restrictor for use where the flue draught is
excessive. The restrictor must NOT be fitted
where a precast flue or a flue liner is used.
For all other installations the restrictor should
be fitted. There may however, be certain
exceptional circumstances where fitting the
restrictor causes the fire to fail the spillage
test. In such cases the restrictor will have to
be removed. After removal conduct the
spillage check again.
The restrictor is packed loose with the appliance and is fixed with two screws (See
figure 10).
7.
Supplied with the fire is a spacer frame. This is made up of three separate pieces, a
top and two sides. The three pieces are identified in figure 11.

Figure 9. Fireback
spacers

8. The sides have a stepped top face. These
must be located on the inside the top piece
(See point 1 of figure 12). The tabs on the
top piece must locate on the inside of the
side pieces (See point 2 of figure 12).
Secure the two side pieces to the top piece
using two self tapping screws supplied.
Locate the screws from inside the ‘U’
channel.
9. There is a length of self adhesive foam
seal supplied with the fire. This will need
to be fitted to the outer rear edges of the
side and top pieces of the spacer frame.
Ensure that there is no gap between the
foam seals where they meet at the top
flange (See figure 13).
10. The spillage plate is supplied as a
loose part (See figure 6). The spillage
plate screws (4 off M4 x 10 taptite) have
been fitted to the hotbox.
Remove these, locate the spillage plate
and secure with the four screws (See
figure 14). The spillage plate MUST be
fitted to the fire.

11. Locate the spacer frame to the rear of the hotbox
(The foam seal must be to the rear of the spacer
frame and NOT against the flanges of the
hotbox). Secure the spacer frame to the hotbox using
the six edge clips supplied. Position these as in
figure 15.
10. HOTBOX INSTALLATION
10.1 Cable retention and floor
fixing.
1. Make sure that the relevant areas at
the fireplace back or floor are sound
enough to take the eyebolts and
screws. If these areas have
deteriorated due to prolonged use they
should be made sound with a suitable
cement.
2. Drill four holes in the rear wall of
the fireplace for the fibre plugs. The
holes should be drilled within the
range of positions shown in figure 16
using a no.12 masonry drill. The holes
should be equidistant each side of the
centre line of the fireplace to ensure
that the appliance finishes centrally in
the opening when tension is applied to
the cables.
3. Insert a fibre plug into each hole.
Use the fibre plugs supplied with this
appliance - Never use plastic plugs
