Most building regulatory Authorities in Australia require any
wood heater installation to comply with Installation Standard
AS/NZS 2918:2001. Different states and councils may have
varying regulations. Check local building regulations before
installing the appliance.
All Nectre wood heaters have been tested to ensure that they
will meet the appropriate safety Standard requirements if the
instructions in this manual are followed. As the safety and
emissions performance can be affected by altering the
appliance, no modifications are allowed without written
permission from the manufacturer.
WE RECOMMEND THAT THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR
NECTRE WOOD HEATER BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED
INSTALLER.
WARNING: THE APPLIANCE AND FLUE SYSTEM SHALL BE
INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AS/NZS 2918:2001 AND
THE APPROPRIATE REQUIREMENTS OF THE RELEVANT
BUILDING CODE OR CODES.
WARNING: APPLIANCES INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THIS STANDARD SHALL COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS
OF AS/NZS 4012 & AS/NZS 4013 WHERE REQUIRED BY THE
REGUALTORY AUTHORITY, I.E. THE APPLIANCE SHALL BE
IDENTIFIABLE BY A COMPLIANCE PLATE WITH THE MARKING
‘TESTED TO AS/NZS 4012 & AS/NZS 4013’.
ANY MODIFICATION OF THE APPLIANCE THAT HAS NOT
BEEN APPROVED IN WRITING BY THE TESTING AUTHORITY
IS CONSIDERED TO BE IN BREACH OF THE APPROVAL
GRANTED FOR COMPLIANCE WITH AS/NZS 4012 & AS/NZS
4013.
CAUTION: MIXING OF APPLIANCE OR FLUE-SYSTEM
COMPONENTS FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES OR MODIFYING
THE DIMENSIONAL SPECIFICATION OF COMPONENTS MAY
RESULT IN HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. WHERE SUCH ACTION
IS CONSIDERED, THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE
CONSULTED IN THE FIRST INSTANCE.
CAUTION: CRACKED AND BROKEN COMPONENTS, EG. GLASS
PANELS OR CERAMIC TILES, MAY RENDER THE INSTALLATION
UNSAFE.
The Nectre Inbuilt LE is designed to be installed in a
concrete, brick or stone fireplace which is attached to a
chimney and has a non-combustible floor protector.
1) Check and clean the chimney and fireplace.
2) Prepare the opening so that the heater will seal against
the sides of the fireplace. If the opening is too large it
can be reduced by fitting a sheet of heat tolerant
material such as compressed cement sheet, or bricks, or
with optional steel facias available from Nectre.
3) The flue spigot in the heater is 45°. For a vertical flue, a
150mm 45° stainless steel flue bend needs to be fitted.
4) Wrap the supplied fibreglass insulation around the rear
of heater. To avoid heat losses through the sides of the
heater into the fireplace cavity, it is recommended to fit
fibreglass or rock-wool insulation to the external sides
of the heater.
5) Install flue lengths up the chimney to atmosphere.
6) Insert the heater, and by gaining access through the
removed top panel, fit the flue and 45° elbow together.
7) Refit the top panel into place.
The flue kit must be installed according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS
MANUAL APPLY TO THE NECTRE INBUILT LE.
IT HAS BEEN TESTED FOR EMISSIONS AND EFFICIENCY
AND COMPLIES ACCORDING TO AS/NZS 4012:1999 &
AS/NZS 4013:1999.
1. IMPORTANT INFORMATION
2. INSTALLING THE HEATER

The dimensions given below for the Nectre Inbuilt LE
represent the minimum clearance to combustible materials,
eg. mantle-piece, when installed in a non-combustible
fireplace.
For variations to clearances relative to a combustible
mantle-piece refer to AS/NZS 2918 Clause 3.4.2.

Floor Protector (Hearth)
The dimensions given in the table above are the minimum
required for the floor protector. It may be desirable, for
example aesthetic reasons, for the floor protector to be
larger than these minimum dimensions.
The floor protector shall be constructed of 45mm minimum
thick compressed cement sheet with thermal conductivity
not greater than 0.33W/m ºK. The floor protector may be laid
directly on the combustible floor.
For more details and variations on floor protectors refer to
AS/NZS 2918:2001 Clause 2.2, 3.3.1, & 3.3.2.
1) The baffle plate should be installed before installing the
fire bricks.
2) Place the baffle inside the firebox with the fold at the
front and directed upwards (refer to diagram below for
correct orientation).
3) Raise the front of the baffle, tilting it back and raise so
that it clears and rests on the front support lugs.
4) Raise the rear of the baffle, bringing it forward enough to
clear the rear support lugs.
5) Once clear of the rear support lugs, push the baffle back
so that it is resting hard up against the rear of the firebox.
The Nectre Inbuilt LE comes with two fire bricks, a left and a
right brick for the inner sides of the firebox. Refer to
diagram below.
Place the brick inside the firebox, locate the top edge of the
brick behind the vertical rod on the front supporting lug,
and then slide the angled bottom of the brick into position
so that it is vertical and flush with the side of the firebox.
