2Safety instructions
Please note!
It is advisable to always install a screen for the
fireplace if children, elderly or disabled people are
present in the same room as the fireplace. If
regularly vulnerable persons can be present in the
room without supervision, sufficient protection
must always be placed around the fireplace.
This appliance must be installed according
with the rules in force and used only in a
sufficiently space.
The appliance must be checked annually
in accordance with this installation
manual and the applicable national and
local regulations.
Ensure that the data on the type label
matches the local gas type and pressure.
The appliance is designed for atmosphere
and heating purposes. This means that all
visible surfaces, including the glass, can
become hotter than 100°C. An exception
by free standing models is the underside
of the fireplace and the control buttons.
Do not use the remote control and / or
app outside the room where the fire is
located. So that you are always aware of
the situation around the fireplace when it
is being operated.
The settings and the construction of the
fireplace must not be changed!
Do not place extra imitation wood or
other material on the burner or in the
combustion chamber.
Do not place any combustible materials
within 0,5m of the radiation area of the
fire.
Through the natural air circulation of the
fireplace moisture and uncured volatile
components from paint, building
materials and carpeted floors, etc. are
attracted. These parts can settle as soot
on cold surfaces. Therefore do not light
the fireplace shortly after installation.
2.1 Using the fire for the first time
Provide extra ventilation and open all the windows
of the room during the initial start-up of the fire.
Let the fire burn at the highest setting for a few
hours so that the paint gets the chance to harden
and any released vapours are safely removed. Keep
vulnerable people and pets out of this room during
this process.

3Installation requirements
3.1 Appliance
This appliance may not be installed in a
chlorine-containing environment. (Pools
etc.).
Minimum distance to combustible
materials:
oRear side 80mm;
oFront 500mm;
oSides 200 mm;
oUnderside 300mm.
3.2 Discharge and outlet requirements
First, carry out a flue calculation (see chapter 11)
and place the right flue restrictor before installing
the outlet! (Generally a 30mm flue restrictor is
installed).
For supply and discharge always use the
prescribed and to be supplied Faber flue
materials. Please contact Glen Dimplex
Benelux B.V.. Only with use of these
materials Faber can guarantee proper
performance.
The distance to combustible materials
must be min. 50mm, calculated from
outside of the flue material (EN 1856-1
T600 N1 D Vm –L20040 O(50)).
Outlets (fig. 1.0)
The balanced flue pipe for combined air supply and
discharge can use a wall terminal or a roof
terminal. Verify that the desired outlet meets the
local regulations regarding pollution and
ventilation openings.
Please note!
For proper functioning, the outlet must at
least be 0,5m away from:
Corners of the building;
Roof overhangs and balconies;
Roof edges (with the exception of the
ridge edge, see chapter 15).
C11, outlet via facade
Through a wall or façade, use a Faber wall outlet.
Depending on the flue calculation this can be
100/150mm or 130/200mm.
C31, outlet via roof
For a (flat) roof, use a Faber roof outlet with a
diameter of 100/150mm.
C91, existing chimney
For an existing chimney, use a Faber chimney
outlet with a diameter of 100/150mm.
In this case the existing chimney acts as air inlet an
inserted flexible stainless steel pipe discharges the
flue gas. The top (Faber chimney cover plate) and
the bottom (Faber chimney connection set) should
be airtight.
Depending on the calculated flue diameter, you
must use a flexible stainless steel pipe of
Ø100mm (article number AJ005503) or Ø130mm
(article number AJ005603) as specified by Faber.
For this, contact Glen Dimplex Benelux B.V.
Please note!
The minimum chimney diameter for a
130mm flexible stainless steel pipe must
be 200x200mm and for a 100mm flexible
stainless steel pipe and 150x150mm.
Don’t connect more than one fire at the
existing chimney.
The chimney must be in good condition:
oNo leakage;
oWell cleaned.
For more information about the connections to
existing chimney ducts, please request the
installation instructions “Chimney Connection Set”.
4Preparation and installation
instructions
4.1 Gas connection
The gas connection must comply with the
applicable local standards.
Please note!
Calculate the gas pipe so that no pressure
drop occurs.
We advise using a gas connection directly from the
gas meter to the appliance (see dimensional
drawing 17.2), with a shut-off valve in the
proximity of the appliance, which must always be
freely accessible. Position the gas connection so
that it is easily accessible for service and the
burner unit can be disassembled at any time.
4.2 Electrical connection
Install a 230VAC/50Hz wall socket near the
fireplace for connecting the control unit.
See fig. 1.2 for the wiring diagram:
A = Adapter (6 V)
B = Gas valve
C = Receiver
D = Ignition pin

See fig. 1.3 for the wiring diagram with I.T.C
(optional):
A = Adapter (6 V)
B = Gas valve
C = Receiver
D = Ignition pin
E = I.T.C. (Intelligent Technical Controller)
4.3 Smart Home installation
Please note
This is only possible if the fire is equipped
with I.T.C!
The controller can be connected to an external
source, such as a Domotica system, by using a
Faber Interface Unit (article number A9323000).
4.4 Preparing the fireplace
Remove the fireplace from its packaging.
Remove the glass and any mouldings,
store them at a safe place and remove the
packaged parts from the fireplace.

place and level it. There is no height adjustment at
the appliance.
4.6 Installing the flue pipes
Install the flue pipes according to the installation
manual supplied with the appliance (40011968)!
The distance to combustible materials
must be min. 50mm, calculated from the
outside of the flue pipe.
Never start immediately with length-
adjustable concentric flue pipe on the
appliance.
Horizontal sections should be installed to
allow a slope towards the appliance
(3 degrees).
Built the system from the appliance. If this
is not possible you can make use of an
extendable adapter section.
For fitting of the flue system, the 0,5m
length-adjustable pipe must be used.
Make sure that the inner pipe is always
15mm longer than the outer pipe. Wall-
and roof terminal can also be cut. These
components must be secured with a self-
tapping screw.
5Removing glass
Place the suction cups on the glass (fig
2.3)
Remove the cover strips left and right (fig.
2.1);

11 Flue calculation
A simple way to calculate whether the exhaust
configuration is possible in combination with your
fireplace, use the “Faber Flue App V2”:
This is available free of charge and can be
downloaded via:
Internet:
Android and PC (Windows Store, (Windows 10)).
App Store:
iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Google Play:
Android smart phones and Android tablets.
Alternatively, you can use the calculation sheet
(see chapter 13).
The options for flue lengths and any flue restrictors
are defined in a restrictor table, see 11.1. Start
Length (STL), Total Vertical Height (TVH) and Total
Horizontal Length (THL) are used in the table.
Start length (STL):
The first part that is placed on the
fireplace and represents a certain value
(fig. 12.1, 12.2 and 12.3 A, N and F). You
can find this value in the upper row of the
restrictor table.
Total Vertical Height (TVH):
TVH is the height difference measured
from the top of the appliance to the
outlet. This can be measured or
determined in the building plan. For
clarification, see also the TVH indication in
the drawings (fig. 12.1, 12.2 and 12.3).
Total Horizontal Length (THL):
THL is the Total Horizontal Length and
consists of elbows and pipes entirely in
the horizontal plane. See elbows I, K and Q
and the elements H, J, L, M, P and R
(fig. 12.1 and 12.2).
Horizontal length:
The Horizontal Length consists of the
elements H, J, L, M, P and R (fig. 12.1 and
12.2).
Elbows 90° in the horizontal plane:
Horizontal elbows are elbows entirely in
the horizontal plane (fig. 12.1, 12.2 and
12.3 I, K and Q).
Elbows 45° or 30° in the horizontal plane.
Horizontal elbows are elbows entirely in
the horizontal plane.
Elbows 90° vertical to horizontal:
These are 90° elbows, which proceed from
horizontal to vertical (fig. 12.2 and 12.3 G,
O and S).

Installation manual Farum
11 < <<<
Elbows 45° or 30° vertical to horizontal
plane:
These are 30° or 45° elbows vertically
offset less than 45° (fig. 12.1 B and D).
Pipes at an angle of inclination:
These are pipes vertically ascending at an
angle of 30° or 45° (fig. 12.1 C). Fill in only
in combination with at least two 30° or
45° elbows in the vertical part.
Restrictor table:
See restrictor table for the correct vertical
(TVH) and horizontal length (THL).
In case of an “X” or if the values are outside the
restrictor table, the combination is not permitted.
Then adjust TVH or THL.
If a value is indicated, check that the calculated STL
value is not lower than indicated in the restrictor
table. In this case STL must be adjusted.
The value found indicates the width of the flue
restrictor to be placed (“0” means no flue
restrictor). Generally a 30mm flue restrictor is
installed (see fig. 2.5).
Please note!
When only a vertical flue length is used, than
you most install the additional air restrictor
under in the appliance (see fig. 3.2 up to 3.5).
The air restrictor comes standard with the
appliance (see fig. 3.1).
