PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FULLY
BEFORE COMMISSIONING OR USE
CONFORMITY
Because Multiglow Fires believe in the use of modern technology and materials, they reserve the rights
to modify or change the layout and controls of their burner trays, at any time, whilst still complying
with current specifications.
Therefore, these ‘Instructions’ are a general guide only and are not specifically in compliance with the
shape
or
size
of
your
appliance.
These
units
must
be
installed
in
line
with
the
current
‘GAS
SAFETY
(INSTALLATION AND USE) REGULATION’ applicable to the country of use.
NOTE: For the safe and efficient operation of this appliance, it must be installed inline with
current British Standard (BS 5871: PART 3) or the equivalent standard for the country
of use and take into account the local and national building regulations or bylaws
where necessary.
NOTE:
This
appliance
has
been
designed
for
use
on
NATURAL
GAS
only.
Prior
to
installation,
ensure
that
the
distribution
conditions
(identification
of
the
type
of
gas
and
pressure)
and
the
adjustment
of
the
appliance
are compatible.
NOTE:
THE

NOTE:
Multiglow
Fires
will
NOT
accept
any
liability
or
responsibility
for
an
appliance
that
has
been

statements.
GENERAL NOTES
SECTION 1
The
MULTIGLOW
CLASSIC

is
a
Decorative
Fuel
Effect
(D.F.E.)
primary
aerated
gas
fire,
designed
to
comply
with
BS
EN
509:2000
and
is
intended
for
decorative
use
only.
It
has
been
designed
to
operate
on
Natural
Gas
(N.G.)
only
and
must
be
fitted
on
a
non-combustible
hearth
in
a
standard
builders
opening,
with
a
Class
1
chimney
in
compliance
and
satisfying
the
requirements
of
BS
5871-
PART
3.
The
appliance
has
been
tested
and
approved
with
a
flue
of
7"
(178mm)
diameter
and
having
a
minimum
effective
height
of 10ft.(3m).
The
MULTIGLOW

If
conforms
to
the
relevant
Safety
Standards
but
during
use,
there
are
naked
flames
and
parts
of
the
casing
become
hot.
A
suitable
guard
(to
BS.6539
fireguards
for
use
with
solid
fuel
appliances)
is
therefore
recommended.
where
the
young,
elderly
or
infirm
are
concerned.
NOTE:
The
larger
of
the
units
manufactured
have
gas
consumption
similar
to
that
of
a
small
boiler
(i.e.
50000
BTU).
Therefore,
it
is
essential
that
the
gas
supply
pipe
work
be
of
a
size
that
will
allow
for
the
correct
flow
rate
(See
TECHNICAL
DATA
for
required
information).
Ideally
the
8mm
connection
pipe
to
the
burner
should
be
as
short
as
possible
and
the
maximum
length
should
not
be
greater
than
1m.
Also
ensure
that
the
isolating
tap
does
not
have
a
reduced
bore.
NOTE:
The
Basket
or
Fret
used
with
this
appliance
will
become
hot
during
use.
Care
should
be
taken
when
operating
the
controls.

INSTALLATION PARAMETERS
SECTION 3 REGULATIONS AND CODE OF PRACTICE
3.1
3.2
3.3
3.4
3.5
3.6
3.7
In your own interest and safety it is law that all gas appliances are installed by a competent
person, in accordance with the current Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations applicable
in the country of use. In addition, the installation must be carried out in accordance with the
relevant and current local and national specifications and building regulations
The fireplace surround, hearth and builders opening shall be of non-combustible material.
Hearth and clearance dimensions must comply with the requirements of BS 5071: PART 3
WARNING: This appliance must not be fitted in any room where steam is present.
(e.g. Bathroom)
The appliance must be mounted behind a non-combustible hearth and be 50mm (2") above floor
level to discourage the over-laying of carpets or rugs etc.
The minimum clearance height above fireplace opening for a combustible shelf (having a depth
of 150mm (6") is 200mm (8"), add 12mm ('s") for each additional 25mm (1") depth of shelf.
WARNING: Please note that soft wall coverings may become discoloured when close to a
heating appliance — this should be born in mind.
The minimum flue opening is 178mm (7") diameter 250 sq. cm. (38'2 sq. inches) and a minimum
effective height 3m (10ft). Provided that the flue, which is to serve this appliance, satisfies the
requirements of BS 5871: PART 3 then a terminal in-line fan satisfying BS 5440: PART1 may be
used to improve flue draught.
WARNING: The flue must NOT be shared with any other appliance.
All chimney dampers or restrictions should be removed or permanently fixed in the open
position.
WARNING: If the fireplace has previously been used with solid fuel the flue should be swept
clean prior to installation.
The room in which the appliance is to be fitted must have permanent air vent with a minimum
effective area of 100cm sq. (15's sq. inches) and be accessible to the outside air, unless
specifically stated otherwise by the manufacturer.
NOTE:
Vent
should
be
checked
on
a
regular
basis
to
ensure
that
there
is
no
obstruction
WARNING:
An
extractor
fan
must
not
be
fitted
in
the
room
that
the
ventilation
is
taken
from.

SECTION
4
FLUE
SOUNDNESS
4.1.
Using
a
smoke
bomb,
carry
out
a
flue
test
to
check
the
effectiveness
of
the
flue
and
ensure
that
there
is
no
leakage
into
another
part
of
the
premises
(including
any
loft)
or,
as
appropriate,
other
adjoining
premises.
NOTE:
Although
a
smoke
pellet
produces
a
large
amount
of
smoke,
the
volume
is
small
compared
with
the
combustion
products
from
an
appliance.
Clearance
of
smoke
from
a
pellet
is,
therefore,
no
guarantee
that
the
products
of
combustion
from
the
appliance
will
clear.
This
must
be
tested
after
the
installation
is
completed
by
carrying
out
a
spillage
test.
WARNING:
Smoke
escaping
anywhere
other
than
the
correct
terminal,
or
a
down-draught
or
no-flow
condition,
indicates
an
unsatisfactory
flue.
The
flue
may
need
attention
-
seek
expert
advice.
VENTILATION
4.2.
In
line
with
3.7
above,
make
sure
that
the
room
or
space
where
the
appliance
is
located
is
adequately
ventilated
and
that
the
means
of
ventilation
is
suitable.
NOTE:
The
size
and
type
of
ventilation
should
take
into
account
any
other
gas
appliance
that
may
be
fitted
in
the
room
or
space.
GAS SOUNDNESS
4.3
It
is
a
requirement
that
a
means
of
shutting
off
the
gas
supply
to
the
appliance
is
provided,
so
that
it
allows
for
gas
soundness
checks
to
be
carried
out
on
the
installation
pipe
work
and
also
provides
the
means
of
isolating/disconnecting
the
appliance
in
case
of
emergency.
NOTE:
Check
that
an
adequate
size
gas
supply
isolating
tap
is
fitted
and
working.

electrode
by
turning

The fire should be fitted under the flue opening so that no part of the fire bed projects beyond
the fireplace opening. If your appliance is fitted with legs, it is a free-standing type and is to be
secured to the hearth floor.
Proceed as follows:
(a) Place appliance centrally into fire opening so that the back of the burner tray touches the
rear wall of the fireback insert.
(b) Mark the hearth floor through the fixing holes provided in appliance mounting legs.
(c) Remove appliance and using a suitable masonry drill, drill marked positions and fit
suitable raw plugs.
(d) Replace and realign appliance and/or secure into position with suitable screws.
NOTE: If appliance is to be used in conjunction with a free-standing basket, place burner tray
into basket and secure with fixing provided then position both burner tray and basket
centrally into hearth opening.
CONNECT TO GAS SUPPLY
Purge the gas supply pipe work to remove air and debris BEFORE connection of fire. The 8mm
pipe should be used to connect valve to an isolating tap which must be adjacent to the appliance
(so that when tap is closed appliance is totally isolated).
NOTE: Soft soldered joints should not be used beneath the burner tray.
WARNING: Flexible pie must not be used.
Turn on gas supply and check for gas soundness. (Tests should be carried out in accordance
with current Gas Safety Regulations).

NOTE:
For

FINAL CHECK & CUSTOMER BRIEFING
SECTION 7
7.1 Instruct the customer on the full operation of the appliance.
7.2 Recommend to the customer that the appliance should be serviced by a competent person
annually.
7.3 Recommend to the customer that on a yearly basis the flue should be swept and that rubbish
should not be burnt on the fire or fuel bed disturbed.
7.4 Instruct the customer that the pilot and flame sensing device fitted to this fire, also acts as an
atmospheric sensing device, which shuts off the appliance if the evacuation of the products of
the combustion is interrupted.
If the fire shuts off, restart the main burner as stated in section 6. If the appliance fails to relight
or repeatedly cuts off, then do not use and inform a qualified person.
7.5 Hand over these User Instructions to the Customer.
