There are two models of the Hestia:
•Hestia with steel plated interior
•Hestia Nostalgic with brick lining
This manual covers both models. Both are developed to be installed in 3 ways:
•Frameless in an existing builders opening or false chimney breast
•in combination with the Jellum 670 surround
•in combination with the Wirdum 670 surround
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
maximum horizontal extension of 6 meters is possible
•Remote Control standard on both models
•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.
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)

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 Builders opening and surround
The appliance can be installed in a non-combustible fireplace or a builders opening. This
could be either an existing builders opening or a new made prefab builders opening.
In both cases keep the following in mind:
•do not place the appliance on combustible materials or carpets
•the (false) chimney breast has 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
•in case of a Wirdum surround the front of the appliance has to stick 123 mm out of
the wall (see appendix J for dimensions sketches)
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 4 meters (Hestia
with flatburner) or 6 meter (Hestia with logburner)
•vertical max. 12 meters (without horizontal extensions only)
