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.
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.
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.
Because of the natural circulation of air, moist and volatile components from paint,
building materials, carpet etc. will be attracted. 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 to the appliance may become scorched or discoloured. This should be born in
mind when installing the appliance.
3.1 Builders opening
The appliance can be installed in a new made hollow wall construction only. For the
dimensions of the appliance, see appendix F.
In both cases 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. Promatect)
•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
3.2 Flue requirements
•The appliance is of the type C31. The appliance will need to be supplied with the
approved flue pipes and terminal, it is not possible to supply your own
•a horizontal extension with elbows is allowed for a maximum of 6 meters
(depending on the situation)
•Minimal 1 meter vertical and maximal 12 meters vertical flue routing
Determine on the base of the example calculations in Appendix A and on the base of the
table in Appendix B 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:
1. each elbow, which is in the horizontal area, counts for 2 meters
2. each 90-degree bend, which is in the horizontal area, counts for 2 meter
3. each 45-degree bend, which is in the horizontal area, counts for 1 meter

9 <<<<
UK IRL
4. elbows and bends at the transition of horizontal to vertically are not to be
counted
5. the wall mounted terminal counts for 1 meter
3.2.1 Terminal position
Verify if the required terminal position meets the local installation regulations regarding
disturbance, good functioning and ventilation (see also appendix G).
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 least 0,5 m off
oCorners of the building
oBelow eaves
oBalcony's etc. unless the duct is dragged to the front side of the overhanging part
oThe roof mounted terminal has to be at a distance of at least 0.5 meters of the
sides of the roof, excluded the ridge
3.2.2 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 burner tray of the controls.
The gas connection is nut and olive suitable for 8 mm pipe.
4.2 Preparing the appliance
•Remove the packaging and the pallet under the appliance
•Determine the position and height where the appliance has to be placed.
•Make a rigid construction to put the appliance on (see figure 6 and 13)
•Place the appliance on the construction.
•Measure the actual height
•Pre-adjust the total height of the appliance considering the desired height (see
figure 1 and 2). There are two ways to adjust the height:
oRough adjustment; by removing the nut and bolt. Shift the leg 30mm and
replace the nut and bolt
oFine adjustment; by adjusting the couple legs
4.3 Placing the appliance
The appliance can be installed either with a frame or frameless. The total thickness of the
wall can be calculated according to the examples below.
Example using Promatect 12 mml

5Commissioning (functional checks)
5.1 Pilot ignition check
•Ignite the pilot light as described in the user manual
•Check if the pilot burner stays alight
•Extinguish the pilot burner
5.2 Check functional burner and pilot burner
The appliance is preset to give the correct heat input. No further adjustment is necessary.
Always check the inlet pressure and burner pressure:
•Turn off the gas valve on the appliance
•Turn the inlet pressure test point C and apply the manometer
•Check if the measured pressure is the same as the prescribed pressure
•Perform this measuring when the appliance burns on full capacity and when only the pilot
ignition burns
•When the pressure is too low, check if the gas pipes are made of material with the right
diameter
•When the pressure is too high (more than 5 mBar overpressure) you may not install the
appliance and you should contact your gas company
•Always check the burner pressure when the functional pressure is right
•Open the burner pressure test point D
•The pressure should match the described pressure. If this is not the case, then contact the
supplier

Appendix C: Installation of the flue
Connection with use of concentric duct material
Make a hole of ø 153 mm for the wall or roof mounted terminal.
The horizontal pipes need to rise away from the appliance at a rate of 3 degrees
per metre
Build the system starting from the appliance on.
Make sure you place the pipes in the right direction, the narrow end towards the
appliance.
Make sure the pipes are fixed sufficiently, a wall clamp every 2m, so the weight of
the pipes is not resting onto the appliance.
The outside of the pipe can become hot (140 degrees). Stay 50 mm away from wall
surface or sealing. Make sure to provide sufficiently heat resistant isolation when
going through the wall or roof.
Because of expansion or cooling down the concentric pipes can turn loose. It is
recommended to fix the spring clip with a self tapping screw at inaccessible places.
To get the exact measure flue length you can use cut down concentric pipe, wall
mounted terminal or roof mounted terminal. To obtain a smoke sealed connection,
the inner pipe must be 20 mm longer then the outside pipe.
Connection onto an existing chimney
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:
Enough free space above the appliance
The chimney only supply’s air to this appliance
The existing chimney needs to be clean and very well swept
The existing chimney needs to be airtight
The existing chimney needs to have an opening of min. 150 x 150 mm

19 <<<<
UK IRL
1. Place the aluminium closure plate
(A) onto the chimney.
Permanently attach and make
airtight.
2. Pull the liner (C) through the
chimney.
3. Connect the liner onto the roof
terminal and fix this with the
clamp provided with the chimney
connection set.
4. Fixing the chimney sealing plate
(D) and place the 150 mm
grommet into the hole of the
sealing plate.
5. Fix the sealing plate air tight into
the builders opening (use isolation
rope from the chimney connection
set to make the plate air tight).
6. Slide pipe (E) 150mm length
500mm into the sealing plate.
Slide this pipe so that you have
enough space later on to assemble
the liner.
7. Install the appliance.
8. Connect the flexible stainless
steel liner onto the appliance
using the 100mm pipe (F) as
adapter.
9. If the distance from the flue outlet to the sealing plate is bigger then 300 mm, you
have to use a concentric pipe first.
10. Slide the outside pipe onto the appliance or concentric extension so that you have a
air tight connection.
