2.3 PREPARATIO OF THE COMBUSTIO CHAMBER OPE I G
(I TO EXISTI G CHIM EY BREAST)
An opening should be constructed to the following dimensions in the existing
chimney breast. See figure 6 below.
Fig. 6
OTE : Please ensure that access holes are cut into either the sides or area
above the lintel to allow access to the flue pipe connection if using a flue liner.
Such access holes are also advantageous in installations where a flue liner is not
required as they provide access for servicing purposes.
If installing without a flue liner, please ensure that sufficient depth is available in
the opening to collect a minimum volumetric area of 12 litres (0.012m3) of flue
debris. This is achieved by a minimum depth of 385mm, the design of the outer
combustion chamber ensures this depth can be met.
Refer to figure 1 on page three for dimensions of the flue outlet.

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 figure 7 above. 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.

2.5 I STALLATIO OF THE GAS SUPPLY (I TO STUDDED WALL OR
EXISTI G CHIM EY BREAST)
Before installing the combustion chamber, decide from which side or if a
rear connection to the gas supply is required. Plan the pipe run to enter
the below the firebox from the left, right or rear and connect to the inlet
elbow. See figure 10, 11 & 12 below.
ote : Before breaking into the gas supply a pressure drop test
should be carried out to establish that the existing pipework is
sound. Always insert the grommet into the entry point used (a
sharp blow with a hammer or chisel will be sufficient to knock out
the opening selected in the firebox) and with the grommet fitted
cut with a sharp knife to allow the supply pipework to pass
through into the firebox.

This appliance uses fuel effect pieces containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres
(R.C.F.), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to
these materials may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory
tract. Consequently, it makes sense to take care when handling these arti-
cles to ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum. To ensure that
the release of fibres from these R.C.F. articles is kept to a minimum, during
installation & servicing we recommend that you use a HEPA filtered vacuum
to remove any dust and soot accumulated in and around the fire, before and
after working on the fire. When replacing these articles we recommend that
the replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within a heavy duty
polythene bag, clearly labelled as “RCF waste”. This is not classified as
“hazardous waste” and may be disposed of at a tipping site licensed for the
disposal of industrial waste. Protective clothing is not required when
handling these arrticles, but we do recommend you follow the normal
hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area, and
always wash your hands before eating or
drinking.
This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from
asbestos or asbestos related products.
Refit the glass frame as detailed in section 2.8, then light the appliance as detailed
in section 3.4 / 3.5 as applicable.
3.2 MAKI G THE GAS CO ECTIO & CHECKI G FOR GAS
TIGHT ESS
a) Before making the final gas connection, thoroughly purge the gas
supply pipework to remove all foreign matter, otherwise serious
damage may be caused to the gas control valve on the fire.
Failure to purge the gas supply will invalidate the guarantee.
b) The gas connection should be made to the appliance inlet elbow to
using 8mm rigid tubing.
c) Remove the pressure test point screw from the inlet elbow and fit a
manometer.
d) Turn on the main gas supply and carry out a gas tightness test.
