It should be noted that each appliance creates warm convected air
currents. These currents move heat from the room surroundings to,
and up the wall surfaces adjacent to the heater.
If the appliances are to be secure on a dry lined or timber framed
construction then the integrity and ability of the wall to secure each
appliance must be confirmed. It is important, in these circumstances,
that any vapour barrier and/or structural members of the house frame
are not damaged.
If you are unsure of the ability of the wall to secure the appliance and/or
which type of wall fixing to use, you should take professional advice and
obtain the correct fixings. Alternatively, find a more suitable wall location.
DO NOT run the supply cable under carpets.
DO NOT site in a position where curtains or drapes could cover the appliance, or other soft materials
could cover e.g. below a coat rack.
DO NOT site behind an opening door where mechanical impact/damage could occur.
DO NOT site where the supply cable would become a trip hazard.
DO NOT sit, stand or forcefully pull on the appliance.
DO NOT obstruct, cover or force items into the openings.
DO NOT use the heater to dry clothes.
DO NOT site/use in an outdoor location(s).
It is important that the following clearances are maintained from the
appliances to combustible materials. These clearances are dependent
on the securing location as defined on the following pages.
The minimum distance to the front of the appliances is
900mm.
There are no clearances for above or to the side of the
appliance, apart from being clear of curtains and drapes for a
flush wall installation.
If the stud wall immediately above the heater of the appliances
protrudes in front rather than finishing flush, then the over
hanging section of the installation must be made from a non-
combustible material, such as calcium silicate.
*See page 11.1 on page 28 for more details

// 10.0 INSTALLATION // 10.1 INSTALLATION – STUDWALL
The stud wall MUST include a header at the dimensions,
highlighted on the following pages. This is to ensure
that the weight of the finished wall is not resting on
top of the appliance.
The power inlet cable can be installed through your
choice of two locations on the top, right hand corner
of the appliance. Each can be accessed through one
removable plate.
Each appliance should be positioned on a firm level
surface and in a clean ‘dust free’ environment. If fitted
into an open chimney, the chimney must be blocked
off to reduce the risk of draught and damp through
the fire, which may cause the safety cut out system in
the fan heater to operate.
The base of the opening/stud work must be able to
take the full weight of both appliances, together.
Any protruding headers MUST be made of a non-combustible material. See
section 11.1 on page 28.
To install into a stud wall the mounting bracket must
be removed from the rear of the appliance as shown
in section 8.2 on page 8.
Once the frame work has been constructed and secured to the wall and the
appliances are in its end position, ensure that there is power to the appliance
before any cladding/plasterboard is installed.
// WARNING:
Before enclosing the appliances, test the power in situation
in order to ensure the power to the appliance working properly.
// CAUTION:
Do not keep the appliances connected to the electrical supply at this time.
Check regularly for
security of wall fixings as
appropriate. Also check
security of supply cable and
connections. If the supply
cable becomes damaged,
it must be replaced by a
service agent or competent
person, such as a qualified
electrician.
The wall where the appliances are to
be installed must be capable of long-
term support of the total load of the
appliance. Measures should also be
taken to ensure sufficient strength to
withstand the force of earthquakes,
vibration and other external forces.
Plasterboard alone is not considered
to be a structural material. It is not
recommended to rely on plasterboard
fixings alone to support the weight of
the appliance.
British Fires assumes absolutely no responsibility for injuries and
damages that may occur due to improper installation or handling.
Remove any protective film coatings from the finished/decorative
surfaces of the appliance, if any. After having selected the final position
of the appliance taking into account the integrity of the wall the electric
appliance may be secured to the wall.
To ensure customer safety, be sure to design the installation so that
the strength of both the wall and any wall fixings used are sufficient. Do
not block the ventilation holes of the appliance. The wall onto which the
appliance/stud wall is installed must be flat. Install only on a vertical
surface. Avoid sloped surfaces. Installation onto anything other than a
vertical wall may result in fire, damage or injury.
If the appliance/stud wall is to be mounted on a dry wall or a timber
framed construction wall then efforts should be made to fix into two or
more wooden studs, or supporting wooden members of the wall using
the fixing screws provided. If this is not achievable then the wall should
be strengthened using appropriate building materials.
Ensure that the correct wall plugs are used for the type of wall that the
stud work is being connected to.
Ensure the plug or fuse spur is fully accessible.

Taking a small account of the small crystals, scatter randomly over the
frosted base as shown above.
PRO TIP – Use the small crystals to pick up extra light from the fuel bed to give you the best effect.
Use the contents from the Forest terrain bag and place this in the
formation shown above (image 2) towards the front and sides of the
frosted base. There should be a single layer to cover this area of the
frosted bed and the crystals still visible.
