INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
INSTALLATIONS- FLOOR TO CEILING ENCLOSURE:
1. I spect the house co structio at the proposed i stallatio positio to verify that the flue cas-
i g (250mm diameter, plus 25mm cleara ce all arou d) ca pass right up through the ceili g
space without requiri g the removal of esse tial roof or ceili g support beams. The flue ce ter-
li e will be 300mm from the rear wall a d it must be at least 760mm dista t from a y side wall.
(See Fig. 2).
2. Drop a plumb li e from the ceili g to the floor to verify the ce terli e a d cut a hole at least
300mm square through the ceili g o this ce terli e. If preferred, there may be o ceili g i -
side the fireplace e closure. (See step 22).
3. E sure that there are suitable oggi s at either the ceili g or roof level (or both) to provide a -
chorage for the outer flue casi g braci g a gles.
4. Frame up the enclosure usi g ormal 90x45mm dressed timber, verifyi g that it will be o the
flue ce terli e. (See Fig. 4). The overall depth should be (648 - t) mm, where ‘t’ is the claddi g
thick ess. The dista ce betwee the fro t uprights must be 955mm (use the supplied metal
support a gle as a spacer). Fix the metal support a gle betwee the two fro t uprights at a
height of 810mm above the base of the shieldi g (zero cleara ce) box.
5. For a ‘elevated’ installation (See Fig. 6), fix two extra oggi s (90x45x955) across the fro t
ope i g of the e closure, o e at the bottom a d the other at the desired ‘elevatio ’ height.
These extra ogs will carry the fro t claddi g below the heater. Fix two 90x45 bearers ru i g
from fro t to back behi d the top extra oggi s, positio ed 250mm each side of the e closure
ce terli e to provide support for the shieldi g box rails. The bearer tops must be flush with the
top of the top extra og. Provide a suitable support at the rear e ds of the bearers to carry the
weight of the applia ce. The shieldi g box ca sit directly o the bearers. No i sulatio is ec-
essary. The usual three oggi s may be fixed at each side of the e closure. At the fro t, the
lowest woode og ‘N’ must have its lower face at least 1200mm above the top of the floor
protector (or 1200mm above the bearers for a elevated i stallatio ). Further woode ogs
ca be fitted above this o e.
6. Fix the claddi g to the fro t of the e closure, i cludi g dow each side of the ope i g. All
front cladding (i cludi g claddi g below the heater i elevated i stallatio s) which is less
tha 1200mm above the floor protector (or the bearers i elevated i stallatio s), must be of
heat-proof material such as Hardies TILE & SLATE UNDERLAY, HARDIFLEX or ETERPAN.
Wall surfaces directly a ove the heater may reach 85 degrees C, so materials such as
wallpaper and water ased paint may e adversely affected. For dura ility of finishes
and surfaces you should contact the relevant manufacturers for their specifications.
Masport Heating accepts no responsi ility for the deterioration of surfaces of finishes.

It is usually co ve ie t to carry the same material right up to the ceili g level. At the lower
edge, drill (4.5mm diameter) holes i to the metal support a gle through the holes i the top
fla ge of the shieldi g box a d faste with the self threadi g screws provided. The side clad-
ding of the e closure may be Gib board or a y other wall claddi g material. You must leave
the claddi g off at least o e side u til the flue system has bee i stalled.
7. For heat se sitive floors, co struct a insulating floor protector of the shape show i the
Floor Pla above. (see below for co crete floors). The sta dard i sulati g floor protector is
co structed of two layers of 16mm thick MICORE 160 or o e layer of WOODTEX 35mm thick,
topped with a 6mm sheet of Hardies TILE & SLATE UNDERLAY a d a layer of tiles or slate.
This will give a thick ess of approximately 50mm, a d the exte sio from the face of the fro t
claddi g must be at least 525mm. The floor protector must be at least 1025mm wide. It is de-
sirable to carry the floor protector all the way i side the e closure to e sure that the bottom of
the shieldi g box does ot rest below the top surface of the floor protector.
8. Note: For elevated installations (bottom of the shieldi g box rails at least 300mm above floor
level), the floor protector may be i stalled after the heater is i positio as it does ot exte d
i to the e closure. However, its rear edge must butt up agai st the face of the heat-proof fro t
claddi g below the heater, a d the joi t at that poi t must be sealed to preve t the possibility
of ember pe etratio . I this case a ash floor protector is sufficie t. Co structio require-
me ts for a ash floor protector are: o e sheet of 6mm fibre ceme t board (e.g. Hardies TILE
& SLATE UNDERLAY) covered with ceramic tiles or slate.
9. Ceme t tiles or slate to the top of the floor protector. The part i side the e closure will ot be
visible a d therefore does ot eed complete coverage. It is ecessary to fix the fi ishi g layer
o ly u der the support rails i this area. The visible edges of the floor protector are best fi -
ished with woode trim or tiles after the stove has bee i stalled.
10. Pe etrate the roofi g material o the flue ce terli e. Worki g from the bottom, assemble sec-
tio s of the flue and the inner and outer flue casings a d pass them up through the hole i
the roof. Remember the flue sectio s must be fixed together at each joi t with at least two rust-
proof faste ers, a d the crimped e ds of the flue casi gs go to the top. Whe the flue system
is fi ally i positio , the top of the i er casi g a d the top of the outer casi gs must be at the
same height. If the flue ce terli e is withi 3m from the ridge, the outer casi g must e d at
least 600mm above the ridge. If it is further tha 3m from the ridge, the shield must exte d at
least 900mmabove the poi t of roof pe etratio . I some cases where there are trees or high
buildi gs i the vici ity, it may be ecessary to i crease the height to avoid dow -draughts.
Note that the special adapter spigot ri g with holes to ve tilate the space betwee the flue a d
the i er casi g as well as the space betwee the i er casi g a d the outer casi g has to be
attached with 4 screws a d locki g uts to the top of the shieldi g box. Both flue casi gs
(i er & outer) will e gage with this special adapter spigot ri g. The fitti g of the special adap-
tor spigot ri g to the top of the shieldi g box should be do e after the shieldi g box has bee
pushed i to the e closure.
11. Assem le the base, sides, back, top shield assembly a d top pa el of the shielding ox. The
top shield rests o the top edges of the i er heat shields of the cabi et. Make sure the back
fla ge hooks over the shield o the rear pa el (See Fig. 3).
12. Attach the two sta doff brackets to the sides of the shieldi g box pa els (if ot already fitted).
Use four pop rivets for each bracket.
13. Slide the assem ly into place in the enclosure. After ce tralizi g, fix the fla ge of the top
pa el of the shieldi g box through the claddi g i to the metal a gle support. Use 2/ 12g x
25mm screws. Attach the special adapter spigot ri g to the top pa el of the shieldi g box. Use
4 screws 8g x 13mm.
14. I New Zeala d a d some parts of Australia, Sta dards require that the woodfire be secured
to preve t shifti g i the eve t of a earthquake. To provide seismic restraint, fix the
shielding ox to the floor (bearers i a elevated i stallatio ) with two 6mm maso ry a -
chors (DYNABOLTS) or two 12 gauge screws . Use the two holes i the bottom of the shield-
i g box spaced 687mm apart.
15. Now go to the fire ox ca inet a d remove the two retai i g screws a d slide out the top sec-
tio of the firebox cabi et.
16. Attach the two ce tralizi g a gles to the side pa els of the firebox cabi et, fla ges faci g for-

7
ward a d outwards. Use two screws provided for each bracket.
17. Slide the firebox cabi et i to the shieldi g box. Ce tralize it a d secure the restrai t brackets
to the shieldi g box fla ges.
18. Complete the seismic restraint of the fire by screwi g the base plate of the fire to the bottom
of the shieldi g box with two M6 screws. Use the two holes i the base spaced 502mm apart.
19. Lower the assembled flue a d seal and fix it to the flue socket of the heater. Use stai less
steel screws. Lower the i er flue casi g a d e gage it with the special adaptor spigot ri g,
repeat this step with the outer flue casi g. See Fig. 8 & 9 for flue a d casi g le gths.
20. Fit the two shield braci g a gles at either ceili g or roof level as appropriate. Fix a suitable
flashi g where the outer casi g pe etrates the roof.
21. IMPORTANT: TO AVOID THE RISK OF A FIRE, COVER THE ENTIRE OPEN SPACE SUR-
ROUNDING THE OUTER FLUE CASING AT CEILING LEVEL WITH WIRE NETTING WHICH
HAS A MESH SMALL ENOUGH TO PREVENT THE ENTRY OF BIRDS OR VERMIN INTO
THE ENCLOSURE.
22. At the top of the flue, fix the flashi g co e a d fit the cowl i the usual way. There must be a
25mm gap betwee the top of the two flue casi gs a d the flashi g co e, so that the spaces
betwee the flue a d i er casi g a d betwee the i er a d outer casi g are properly
ve ted.
23. Re-fit the removable top sectio of the firebox cabi et a d secure it with two screws.
24. Fix the claddi g to the e closure side(s).
25. Fit the fascia. See i structio s supplied with the fascia.
26. E sure that the ceili g baffle, seco dary air tube a d the four side bricks a d the three rear
bricks are i the correct positio .
27. Check a d e sure that the fa rests o four rubber grommets a d that the fro t two grommets
are resti g over the two uptur ed lugs of the cabi et base plate.
28. Fi ish the floor protector by i stalli g a edge trim if desired.

NOTES FOR VARIATIONS
CONCRETE FLOORS
The above i structio s assume that the heater is bei g i stalled o a heat se sitive floor such as
timber or particle board. Where the floor is ot heat se sitive (e.g. co crete), the i sulati g floor pro-
tector may be omitted. However, if heat se sitive floor coveri gs (e.g.carpet) are fitted it will be ec-
essary to keep them at a safe dista ce. The most practical way to do this is to fix tiles to the floor
where the floor protector ormally would be. This will make the top of the protector approximately
flush with the floor coveri g, so a larger floor protector will e needed. It must exte d out to
555mm from the face of the fro t claddi g, but the 1025mm width will be sufficie t (see Fig. 5). Re-
member to raise the shieldi g box by the same amou t as the thick ess of the tiles o the co crete
BRICK FACED INTERNAL ENCLOSURES
Flue i stallatio a d cleara ce requireme ts are as detailed above. Brick wall co structio will or-
mally require a cast co crete base slab, so this slab could be exte ded to provide the ecessary floor
protectio .
CAUTION. If your local Buildi g Requireme ts permit layi g the co crete slab o top of a woode
floor, it should be made of lightweight co crete a d eve the fou datio support may be required. I
a y case, the slab should be poured o top of o e layer of 16mm thick Micore 160 board (covered
with plastic sheet to keep it dry) to preve t heat damage to the woode floor.
The top surface ca be fi ished with bricks or tiles etc. I all cases the floor protector dime sio s
must be as previously show .
EXTERNAL INSTALLATIONS
I the case where the e closure is to be erected outside the house, the shieldi g a d flue i stallatio
details above will still apply. It is importa t to remember that the aperture i the wall of the house will
eed to be sufficie t high to permit the i stallatio of heat resista t pa eli g arou d the heater to at
least 1200mm above the bottom of the shieldi g box rails. Suitable fou datio s will be required to
support the weight of the e closure a d the heater a d weatherproofi g of the e tire assembly will
be ecessary.
INSTALLATIONS- BOX ENCLOSURE
You ca create a ‘differe t look’ i stallatio as per Fig. 7 a d variatio s of it. The mi imum dime -
sio s for the pla view (floor pla ) are the same as for the ‘wall to ceili g e closure’ (See Fig 2). The
i side height of the e closure must be at least 1245mm from the bottom of the shieldi g box rails to
the u derside of the top pa el of the box. The chim ey chase must be at least 440mm square over
the woode frame which is made from 45x90 dressed timber (See Fig.7), or it could also be made
from tube with a i side diameter of 350mm. The chim ey chase frame ca be made from timber
a d the claddi g ca be made from GIB-board. The whole fro t claddi g of the e closure must be
made from heat-resista t material like Hardies TILE & SLATE UNDERLAY, HARDYFLEX or ETER-
PAN. The side claddi g a d the top pa el ca be made of a y claddi g material (it does ot have to
be heat-resista t material). Of course the supplied steel a gle support which supports the fro t clad-
di g immediately above the shieldi g box must be used as above. All other co strai ts are as above.
The top pa el of the box e closure must have a ope i g of at least diameter 350mm where the flue/
flue casi gs exit the box.
