2. APPLIANCE DATA
This product uses fuel effect pieces, gaskets and a burner compartment rear wall
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. This is not classified as “hazardous waste” and
may be disposed of at a tipping site licensed for the disposal of industrial waste.

INSTALLER GUIDE

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.
* When converted using Kit 0591149.
The appliance data label is located on a plate at the base of the fire. This can be seen by
removing the fire front castings / fire front.

3.1.2
Electrical isolation of the unit should be by means of a switched 3A fuse spur that
should be readily accessible to the user, easily identifiable and sited within reach of the
mains cable provided. It should only connect this appliance.
3.1.3 This fire is a fan flued appliance for installation on an outward facing wall of a
conventional home which does not have a purpose built flue or chimney.
3.1.4
As supplied, the appliance is suitable for homes constructed of brick, stone, etc.,
the appliance can be installed into walls up to a maximum thickness as shown below.
If the fire box is in front of the finished wall surface: 600mm (23 5/8in) max.
These dimensions are from the finished internal wall surface (including any surround
material) to the external wall surface.
3.1.5
Installation to a timber framed building should be in accordance with the relevant
sections of Institute of Gas Engineers publication IGE/UP/7 “Gas installations in timber
frame buildings”. Please note that advice should be sought before installing in a
timber frame building since the alterations required may nullify any NHBC cover
relating to the property. If in doubt, guidance should be requested from your local
authority planning or building department.
This appliance must be mounted with a non-combustible hearth (See figure 1) (N.B.
conglomerate marble hearths are considered as non-combustible). The fire box must be
mounted on a non-combustible surface level with the hearth. The hearth must project at
least 300mm forward of the fire box front and be at least 625mm wide (see illustrations
in “wall preparation” section). 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
Page 6
INSTALLER GUIDE

discourage the placing of carpets or rugs over it.
The surface of the hearth must be sufficiently flat to enable the bottom of the front
casting to be aligned horizontally. Any excessive unevenness (uneven tiles, Cotswold
stone, etc.) should be rectified.
3.1.6 The appliance must not stand on combustible materials or carpets.
The appliance must not be fitted directly against a combustible wall. If the
appliance is to be fitted against a wall with combustible cladding or skirting board, such
materials must be removed from the area covered by the fascia of the appliance. We
suggest that the fascia is used as a template to mark the area for combustible cladding
removal.
The appliance can be fitted to a purpose made proprietary class “O” 150°C surround.
The opening in the surround or wall recess for the fire box must be within the limits
shown in figure 1.
3.1.7. ‘Hole-in-the-wall’ Installations
It is recommended that a hearth should be installed as in figure 1.
If a reduced depth Hearth is 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 88
mm.
It is recommended that the reduced hearth has a depth from the fixing plane of the fire
of 100mm minimum. This is necessary to support the lower front casting. The minimum
shelf height will have to be taken from the base of the fireplace opening.

INSTALLER GUIDE
Figure 1. Hearth and recess requirements

3.1.8 The minimum height from the top surface of the hearth to the underside of any
shelf made from wood or other combustible materials is detailed below.
!For a shelf up to 150mm deep: Minimum height = 700mm.
!For a shelf deeper than 150mm: 700mm + 12.5mm for every 25mm depth over
150mm (See Graph 1).
3.1.9 The front face of the wall should be reasonably flat over the area that will be
covered by the fire box top and side flanges to ensure a good seal. The minimum height
from the top surface of the hearth to the underside of any shelf made from wood or
other combustible materials is as follows:-
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.
3.1.10
The appliance must not be installed in any room that contains a bath or shower or
where steam is regularly present.
3.1.11
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, or provision is made to ensure that
the fan and the appliance cannot be used at the same time.
A fan-powered flue system tends to depressurise the room containing the appliance.

3.1.12 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, however the spillage check (See further on in this
guide) may indicate a need for further ventilation in order to ensure that there is
adequate air replacement. If necessary seek expert advice.
3.1.13 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.
3.1.14
A fireguard complying with BS 8423 should be fitted for the protection of young
children, the elderly, or the infirm.
3.1.15 The minimum allowable distance from the outside of the appliance case to a
corner wall having combustible material or any other combustible surface which
projects beyond the front of the appliance is 100mm.
For access purposes a 50mm clearance is recommended from non-combustible surfaces.
3.2 Flue Siting
3.2.1
The flue terminal should be located so that the wind can blow freely across it at all
times and where any blockage due to leaves, snow, etc. is unlikely. The minimum
allowable distances from the terminal are shown in figure 2.
Note: The distances are from the edge of the vertical exit slots in the terminal not from
the edges of the rectangular box (See figure 4).
3.2.2 This appliance is supplied with a terminal guard. In England and Wales, the
Building Regulations require that the terminal guard is fitted if the flue terminal can
come in contact with people near the building or be subject to damage. Even if the
regulations do not demand it, we recommend that the guard is fitted to prevent damage
or blockage of the flue system by leaves etc.
A concealed gas supply connection can be made through the rear panel. Visible front
connection can be from the left or right side after an opening has been cut in the
appropriate side of the hearth casting.
Electrical connection is from the left side.
