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. 6
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. 7 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.

2.7 PREPARATION OF THE F UE HO E
a) Mark the position of the centre of the flue on the inner wall. (See Fig.
14 on previous page for position).
b) Cut hole for outer flue pipe. There are two possible methods to achieve
this, either core drill or via hammer and chisel.
c) To core drill, proceed as follows :-
Drill a pilot hole through the wall, in position as specified in Fig. 14 on
previous page.
Using a 6” core drill, drill the flue hole.
To Hammer and chisel, proceed as follows :-
Mark the position of the centre of the flue pipe as specified in Fig. 14
Mark the position of the hole around this point.
Chisel out the area as marked on the wall.
We then recommend that a cardboard cylinder is placed around the flue pipe and
inserted in the chiselled out hole whilst making good.
NOTE :- If the appliance is to be installed into a building under
construction, it is recommended that a non-corrosive metal tube of 6”
diameter be inserted into the position of the hole as specified on page 14.
2.8 FITTING THE STARTER PIPE TO THE APP IANCE
a) Place gasket on top of the combustion chamber as shown below in Fig.
