2.Safety instructions
Before installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions (identification of the type
of gas and pressure) and the adjustment of the appliance are compatible. This information
can be found on the data plate. This gas appliance is factory set and shall not be adjusted.
This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from asbestos or any asbestos
related products.
The pilot and flame sensing device fitted to this fire is also a safety device. If for any
reason any part of the pilot assembly is to be replaced, the entire assembly, including the
pilot burner, thermocouple, electrode and injector, must be exchanged complete for a pilot
assembly from the original manufacturer only.
Do not put extra (glow-)elements in the combustion chamber. This could affect the burning
process in a negative way.
This appliance is room-sealed and doesn't require purpose provided ventilation.
It is the law in the UK that all gas appliances are installed and checked by a competent
person in accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations (as amended),
the relevant British Standards for Installation work, Building Regulations, Codes of Practice,
and the manufacturer’s instructions.
The installation should also be carried out in accordance with the following where relevant:
•British Standards: BS5871 Part1, BS5440 Parts 1 & 2 and BS1251;
•Building Regulations Document J (as applicable);
•Building Regulations and Standards issued as relevant by the Department of the
Environment or the Scottish Development Department.
In the Republic of Ireland installation should be carried out in accordance with IS813, ICP3,
IS327, Building Regulations, Codes of Practice, the manufacturer’s instructions and any
other rules in force.
Failure to comply with the above could leave the installer liable to prosecution and
invalidate the appliance warranty.
The construction of the fire place is not to be altered.
Safety instructions for the user can be found in chapter 9.

3.Installation requirements
Note: Since the appliance is a source of heat, circulation of air occurs. Therefore it is of
importance that you do not use the appliance shortly after a renovation of the home. Because
of the natural circulation of air, moist and volatile components from paint, building materials,
carpet etc. will be attracted. These components can settle themselves down onto cold
surfaces in the form of soot.
As on all heat producing appliances, soft furnishings such as blown vinyl wallpaper placed too
near to the appliance may become scorched or discoloured. This should be born in mind
when installing the appliance.
3.1 Builders opening and surround
Both the BF110V/Straight frameless and the BF110V/Straight frameless can be build in an
optional Faber prefab false chimney breast made of promatec. This false chimney breast is
specially designed to accommodate this type (NOT for the models with frame) and is
applicable for ceiling heights up to 2,9m. It consists of a base part and either a top part
made of promatec or an ornamental flue pipe made of stainless steel.
The fire place can also be build in a non-combustible fire place or builders opening. This
could be either an existing builders opening or a new made prefab builders opening. For the
measurements, see paragraph 3.2.
When you apply your own false chimney breast design to all models of the BF110V/Straight
or BF120H/Relaxed, you have to meet these general requirements:
•The false chimney breast has to be made of inflamable material;
•The minimum inner width of the false chimney breast has to be at least 976mm (see
paragraph 3.2) and is secured by the floor plate;
•Minimum distance from the back of the appliance to the wall has to be 10mm;
•Always install the fire place first, before building up the false chimney breast;
•Always ventilate the space above the appliance using vents to assure a good air-
circulation;
•If the appliance is to be fitted against a wall with combustible cladding, the cladding
must be removed from the area covered by the surround;
•The plaster of the outside has to be resistant to a high temperature. Therefore use the

UK/IRL
8< < <<
plaster materials especially made for this, to prevent discoloring (min. 100 °C
temperature resistant);
•Make sure the plaster dries well before using the appliance. Let the thickness in mm
be the number of days the plaster has to dry, e.g. 3 mm plaster has to dry for 3 days.
•Although the appliance is tested for installation without a hearth, the appliance must
not stand on combustible materials or carpets. If the appliance is placed on a
combustible floor first place a fibrelux or similar heatproof board of 12 mm thickness.
Any under floor vents or openings within the builders opening should be sealed off;
•If the floor will be adjusted (e.g. by applying carpet or parquet), the floor under the
false chimney breast has to be adjusted to match the future floor height;
•Do not place any material directly onto the appliance. If possible, apply a lintel made
of cement or something similar;
•Make sure that both the gas control block and the main gas valve are easy accessable
at all times and can be operated if necessary.
Specific requirements for making a false chimney breast for the BF110V / Straight
frameless:
•The front opening of the false chimney breast has to be at least 460mm wide and
1100mm high, measured from the underside of the floor plate;
•Minimum distance from the glass to any of the construction parts of the false chimney
breast should be at least 12 mm. This is the minimum distance with which the glass
can still be taken out;
•When using a material thicker than 12mm, e.g. 50mm thick stony material, the floor
plate has to be adjusted according to the indicated pattern (see paragraph 3.2 for
construction details and dimensions);
Specific requirements for a false chimney breast for the BF110V / Straight with frame:
•The wall opening has to be 620x1100 mm. This is smaller than the appliance!!!
•The gas control block can be mounted on either the left or right side of the floor plate,
depending on which side makes it easier to acces it.
Specific requirements for a false chimney breast for the BF120H / RELAXED frameless:
•The (wall) opening has to be 1050x425 mm. This is smaller than the appliance;
•The (wall) opening depth is 50 mm. The distance between the opening and the glass
should be at least 12 mm. This is measured after finishing!

UK/IRL
>>>>9
•Use 12 mm Promatec for the front of the false chimney breast. Building up the false
chimney breast with e.g. Ytong blocks is not possible;
•The gas block is normally mounted on the right side of the appliance but can be place
elsewhere, thanks to a 1.2 m flexible gas line;
•Make sure the that the top ridge of the (wall) opening is left out! (see drawings in
§3.2). This is necessary to be able to remove the glass and assure a good air
circulation!

3.3 Flue requirements
The appliance is of the type C11/C31. The appliance will need to be supplied with the
approved flue pipes and terminal, it is not possible to supply your own.
The minimum effective height of the flue system must be 0.5 or 1 meter, depending on the
appliance.
Flue routing;
- The terminal locations, through the wall as well as through the roof;
- A horizontal extension with elbows is allowed for a maximum of 6 meters (depending
on the type and situation);
- Vertical max. 12 meters.
Determine on the base of the table 2 and 3, depending on the type and terminal position, if
the desired situation is possible. To establish this you will need to calculate:
- The effective height (this is the real difference in height between the upper side of
the appliance and the terminal);
- The total horizontal extension. This is the total horizontal flue length where:
oEach elbow, which is in the horizontal area, counts for 2 meters;
oEach 45-degree bend, which is in the horizontal area, counts for 1 meter;
oElbows and bends at the transition of horizontal to vertically are not to be
counted;
oThe wall mounted terminal counts for 1 meter.
Flue restrictor
If applicable, in the table is also stated the size of a flue restrictor. This restrictor needs
to be fitted in the combustion chamber when placing the appliance (see chapter 4.2).
Normally the smallest flue restrictor is fitted.

BF110V with logburner
Note:the BF110V / Straight with logburner can be lead directly to the wall, using a pipe
bend.
Determine according to the table 2 the right total horizontal and vertical length. When
meeting an x, and when the values are outside the table, the combination is not allowed.
The 30 mm flue restrictor is normally preinstalled.

3.3.1 Terminal position
Verify if the required terminal position meets the local installation regulations regarding
disturbance, good functioning and ventilation (Also see: safety requirements).
Note:
The terminal must be located so that the outlet is not obstructed. If the flue terminal is
located within 2 meters of a footway, path or where people could come into contact with it
then a suitable terminal guard must be fitted.
Terminals located close to shared walkways, footpaths etc. could be subject to legal
constraints and this should be pointed out to the customer before installation. If in any
doubt about flue location advice should be sought from local building control, or if
appliance-related, from the manufacturer including wherever possible a dimensioned
sketch.
Avoid locating the terminal in close proximity to plastic materials such as gutters or other
combustibles. If this is unavoidable then a suitable deflector should be made.
Some important requirements for a good functioning are:
- The wall-mounted terminal has to be at a distance of at least 0.5 meters off:
oCorners of the building;
oBelow eaves;
oBalcony's etc. unless the duct is dragged to the front side of the overhanging
part.
- The roof mounted terminal has to be at a distance of at least 0.5 meters of the sides
of the roof, excluded the ridge.
