GAS SUPPLY
1. The gas installation should be in accordance with
relevant standards. In GB this is BS 6891. In IE this is
I.S. 813 “Domestic Gas Installations”. The gas supply is
provided from the service tap on the boiler unit. A supply
pipe is provided with the fire. This pipe has one flared end
for connection to the fire and a plain end which is
connected to the service tap by a nut and olive.
2. Dependent upon the position of the boiler relevant to
the surround or wall finish face, it may be necessary to
shorten the supply pipe. IF THE PIPE HAS TO BE
SHORTENED CARE MUST BE TAKEN. The length of the
supply pipe is determined as follows:
(a)Measure the distance 'D' from the centre of the front
positioning 'V' mark on the boiler tray, back to the
surround face or finished wall face (Fig.3).
(b)FROM THE PLAIN END of the supply pipe cut off a
length of pipe equal to the distance 'D' measured
above. Take care to ensure that the cut is square and
the pipe is free from burrs and swarf.
ALTERNATIVELY
(c) The amount of pipe required to be cut off can be
determined by holding the PLAIN END of the pipe
against the surround or finished wall face, marking the
pipe at the position of the centre of the front positioning
'V' mark on the boiler tray.
3. After threading the steel flare nut on the above pipe,
connect the plain end to the service tap with the remaining
nut and olive. It is important to ensure that the flared end
of the pipe:
(a) Faces to the right.
(b) Is parallel with the hearth or floor.
4. It is necessary to unscrew and remove the extension
plate from the boiler controls heat shield. Once removed
this item can be discarded (Fig.4).

It is important that the existing installation is correct and
that the flue is performing satisfactorily. Any remedial
work necessary should be completed before the new
appliance is commissioned. Please read the Important
Information Section on page 4.
WARNING: When a renewal firefront is installed with a
Bermuda 401, 552, 45/3 or 57/3 which does not have
an Atmospheric Sensing Device fitted the combined
appliance will not shut down under adverse flue
conditions. (When the fire is used without the boiler
on, the Atmospheric Sensing Device will operate).
NOTE: A permanent live is required for correct operation
of the firefront.
