INSTA ATION REQUIREMENTS
1.1 CONDITIONS OF INSTA ATION
It is the law that all gas appliances are installed only by a GAS SAFE Registered
Installer, in accordance with these installation instructions and the Gas Safety
(Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 as amended. Failure to install appliances
correctly could lead to prosecution. It is in your own interest and that of safety to
comply with the law.
The installation must also be in accordance with all relevant parts of the Local and
National Building Regulations where appropriate, the Building Regulations
(Scotland Consolidation) issued by the Scottish Development Department, and all
applicable requirements of the following British Standard Code of Practice.
1. B.S. 5871 Part 1 Installation of Gas Fires
2. B.S. 6891 Installation of Gas Pipework
3. B.S. 5440 Parts 1 & 2 Installation of Flues and Ventilation
4. I.S 813 : 1996 Domestic Gas Installation, issued by the National Standards
Authority of Ireland.
1.2 FIREP ACE / SURROUND SUITABI ITY
The fire must only be installed on a hearth it must not be installed directly onto
carpet or other combustible floor materials.
The fire is suitable for fitting to non-combustible fire place surrounds and propri-
etary fire place surrounds with a temperature rating of at least 150oc.
If a heating appliance is fitted directly against a wall without the use of a fire
surround or fire place all combustible material must be removed from behind
the trim. Soft wall coverings such as blown vinyl, wall paper etc. could be
affected by the rising hot air and scorching and/or discoloration may result.
Due consideration should be made to this when installing or decorating.

1.3 F UE TERMINA POSITION
The minimum acceptable dimensions from the flue terminal to obstructions
and ventilation openings are shown below and listed in the table
It is important that the position of the flue allows the free passage of air
across it at all times. The minimum acceptable space from the flue terminal
to obstructions and ventilation openings are specified below (Fig. 2)

1.4 SHE F POSITION
The fire may be fitted below a combustible shelf providing there is a minimum
distance of 300mm above the top of the fire and the shelf does not project more
than 150mm. If the shelf overhangs more than 150mm the distance between the
fire and the shelf must be increased by 15mm for every 25mm of additional
overhang over 150mm.
1.5 HEARTHS
This appliance does not require the fitting of a hearth that projects in front of it
when installed into a recess in either an existing chimney breast or a studded wall.
The appliance must however stand on a non-combustible base that is a minimum
thickness of 12mm
1.6 INSTA ATION TO P ASTERED WA SURFACES
If installing to a plastered wall, all material must be removed from the 50mm area
surrounding the combustion chamber opening, and replaced with non-combustible
material, such as marble or granite, to prevent plaster cracking. See Fig. 3 below

2.3 PREPARATION OF THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER OPENING
(INTO EXISTING CHIMNEY BREAST)
An opening should be constructed to the following dimensions in the existing
chimney breast.
Fig. 8
The opening needs to be sufficient to accomodate the combustion chamber. To
support the wall above the opening, a suitable lintel must be inserted across the
top of the opening. The lintel could be either pre-cast concrete or steel - Catnic
CN52 or CN 46 could be used, depending upon the inner wall thickness. Before
proceeding with the installation of the fire, an assessment of the area immediately
above the fire is required, see Fig. 9 overpage. If there is no existing openings
within either triangle, proceed with forming the opening. However, if opening or
beams occur within either triangle, then you should seek specialist advice from a
structural engineer or consider relocating the proposed position of the firebox.
NOTE : Please ensure that suitable cut outs in the sides and front face of the
chimney breast are implemented for fixing of the flue pipe, and for future
servicing.
