1Introduction
Note: these instructions should be read carefully and retained for future reference. Please
leave these instructions with the user.
•The Bright can be build on all desired heights
•The Bright is only in a frameless configuration available.
Special features:
•Room sealed appliance, inlet and outlet are led to the outside using a natural draught
concentric pipe system (100 mm/150 mm) (no power fan required)
•Air supply and flue-gases go to outside atmosphere through wall or roof. A horizontal
extension is possible (see appendix A and B).
•Remote Control is standard.
•Meets the requirements of the European Gas Appliance Directive (GAD) and carries
the CE mark.

2Safety and general information
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 gas appliance is factory set and can not be adjusted.
This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from asbestos or any asbestos
related products.
Ventilation
This appliance is room-sealed and doesn't require purpose provided ventilation.
Never use the appliance if it has a broken glass.
General safety
It is the law in the UK that all gas appliances, are installed 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 manufacturers instructions.
Always use an additional guard if there are elderly, infirm or children in the same room of
the appliance.
The installation should also be carried out in accordance with the following where relevant:
•BS5871 Part1
•BS5440 Parts 1 & 2
•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 manufacturers instructions
and all other regulations in force
Failure to comply with the above could leave the installer liable to prosecution and
invalidate the appliance warranty.

3Installation 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. Due to
the natural circulation of air, moist and volatile components from paint, building materials,
carpet etc. will be attracted to the lit appliance. These components can settle onto cold
surfaces in the form of soot.
As on all heat producing appliances, soft furnishings such as blown vinyl wallpaper placed too
near the appliance may become scorched or discoloured. This should be born in mind when
installing the appliance.
3.1 False chimney breast
The appliance must be installed in a non combustible false chimney breast. For the
dimensions of the appliance, see appendix F.
Keep the following in mind:
•do not place the appliance on combustible materials or carpets
•both walls have to be made of non-combustible material (e.g. Promatec).
•do not place the lintel, surround or marble stone directly onto the appliance. If
possible, apply a lintel made of cement or something similar.
•always ventilate the space above the appliance. Use a Faber ventilation grid.
•to avoid cracking, the plaster has to dry for at least 1 day per millimetre plaster
•to avoid discolouring the plaster has to be heat resistant to min. 100°C.
•try to remove the glass in all building situations.

3.2 Flue requirements
•The appliance is of the type C11/C31. The appliance will need to be supplied with
the approved Faber flue pipes and terminal, it is not possible to supply your own. The
minimum effective height of the flue system must be 1 meter.
•Flue routing:
•a horizontal extension with elbows is allowed for a maximum of 6 meters.
•vertical max. 12 meters (without horizontal extensions only)
Determine with the help of appendix A, B and C if the desired routing 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:
1. each 90-degree bend, which is in the horizontal area, counts for 2 meter
2. each 45-degree bend, which is in the horizontal area, counts for 1 meter
3. elbows and bends at the transition from horizontal to vertically are not to be
counted
4. the wall mounted terminal counts for 1 meter
3.3 Flue restrictor
If applicable, in the table of appendix B is also stated the size of a flue restrictor. This
restrictor needs to be fitted in the combustion chamber when placing the appliance.
Normally the smallest flue restrictor is fitted at production.
3.4 Terminal position
Verify if the required terminal position meets the local installation regulations regarding
disturbance, good functioning and ventilation:
•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.
