4Installation 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.
4.1 Builders opening and surround
The appliance can be installed in the following situations:
In a non-combustible fireplace or builders opening. This could be either
an existing builders opening or a new made prefab builders opening. For
the measurements, see figure 1 and index.
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 then a fibrelux or similar
heatproof board of 12 mm thickness should be placed under it. Any under
floor vents or openings within the builders opening should be sealed off.
Do not place the lintel, surround or marble stone directly onto the
appliance. If possible, apply a lintel made of cement or something similar.
Insulate the appliance with a ceramic blanket (25 mm). See also chapter
4: Installation instructions. Preferred choice for insulation is unbound
insulation wool (at 1000 °C gives no smell).

If the builders' opening is constructed out of non-combustible composition
board (Fibrelux) and you install the appliance without a mantel then:
•Ventilate the space above the appliance (min. 1000 mm2 ).
•Always fit the DC convection set.
•The plaster of the outside has to be resistant to a high temperature.
Use therefore the plaster materials especially made for this, to
prevent discolouring (min. 100 °C temperature resistant).
•The plaster has to dry for at least 1 day per millimetre plaster. This
means that 4 mm plaster has to dry for at least 4 days before the
appliance should be used. This is to avoid cracking.
•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 minimum height from the top surface of the fire to the underside of
any shelf made from wood or other combustible materials is as follows:
•For a shelf up to 150 mm deep – Minimum height = 350 mm (fig. 1).
•If the shelf depth is greater than 150 mm add 50 mm to the upper
clearance height for every 25 mm increase in shelf depth.
•Side clearance = Minimum distance from the side of the fire frame to
combustible material = 150 mm.
4.2 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.
•Terminal locations, through the wall as well as through the roof. See
figure 3.
Flue routing;
•a horizontal extension with elbows is allowed for a maximum of 6
meters (depending on the type and situation).

UK/IRL
>>>>11
•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:
àeach elbow, which is in the horizontal area, counts for 2 meters.
àeach 45-degree bend, which is in the horizontal area, counts for 1
meter.
àelbows and bends at the transition of horizontal to vertically are
not to be counted.
àthe 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.
Example calculation 1:

4.3.1 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.

4.3.2 Using an existing chimney as air inlet
You can connect the appliance onto an existing chimney. The existing
chimney then functions as air supply, where a flexible stainless steel liner
(to BS715) of 100 mm performs the flue function.
Requirements:
•Any existing chimney used as an air supply must only service this
appliance.
•A chimney that has previously been used for solid fuel must be swept
before use.
•The existing chimney needs to be airtight.
•The existing chimney needs to have an opening of min. 150 x 150 mm.
•The chimney needs to be intact and well looked after.
•Use the adjustable roof-mounted-terminal especially made for this,
and the chimney connection set.
•The min. distance between two terminals should be at least 450 mm.
