Section 2: INSTALLATION REQUIREMENT
This appliance MUST NOT be installed into a bathroom or shower room, or where steam may
be present.
An extractor fan must not be fitted in the same room or space as the appliance as this can
affect the safety of the appliance.
The fire has been designed to fit into a fireplace or builders opening conforming to BS 1251
(and meeting certain dimensional requirements), or a suitable flue box complying with the
constructional requirements of BS 715.
A natural draught flue system is required, and if previously used for solid fuel or oil burning,
the flue and chimney must be swept prior to appliance installation.
The flue must be checked before installation by using a smoke pellet or similar to ensure
proper draw and that leakage is not evident at any joints. Repair and re-test as necessary
before the appliance is installed.
Any flue box used must be installed onto a suitable non-combustible insulating surface at
least 12mm thick, covering the entire base area of the box.
The flue must have an effective height of at least three metres, as measured from the hearth
to the top of the flue.
Any flue damper plates or restrictors must be removed and no other restriction fitted to the
flue. Where removal is not practical, the restriction must be fixed in the fully open position.
The flue must be connected to only one fireplace, and the flue must not vent more than one
appliance.
There must be no opening in the flue apart from the one that the appliance is installed into,
and the one venting the gases into the air. A suitable terminal may be fitted, such as class
GC1, as regulations allow.
Some of our appliances have been tested for use in a pre-cast block flue complying with BS
1289.
In accordance with BS1289 part 1, pre-cast flues built with directly plastered faces (front or
rear) are not correctly installed as to ensure proper operation with any type of gas fire.
Depending on the flue construction, on occasions the temperature reached can cause
cracking of the surface plaster through no fault of the appliance.
An air gap or some form of insulation material should be installed to prevent normal flue
temperatures from damaging wall surfaces.
This appliance is suitable for use with a surrounding area or back panel of 150C minimum
rating.

SECTION 4: VENTILATION
This Appliance does not normally require purpose provided ventilation.
However, a second appliance operating within the same room or space must be taken into
consideration when assessing ventilation.
When commissioning the appliance spillage is detected, then amongst other problems there
may be insufficient natural ventilation for correct operation of the flue.
If spillage is detected with windows closed, but the appliance does not spill with the windows
open, this demonstrates a lack of natural ventilation.
If spillage is still detected with the windows open, the flue is at fault the installation of an air
brick is the best solution to lack of ventilation.
Any ventilation fitted must comply with BS 5871 part 2 and BS 5440 part 2.
Air Vents fitted under or within the immediate vicinity of the appliance must not be used as
adverse effects to the operation of the Flame Safety Device (FSD) may occur.
Spillage detected during commissioning is almost always a result of poor flue performance
that cannot be corrected by any amount of ventilation.
For Republic of Ireland ventilation may be required, see IS 813, ICP3, IS 327, and
any other rules in force.
Section 5: SITE REQUIREMENTS
The fireplace opening should be inspected and repairs made where necessary.
A chair brick or fireback may be left in place, providing that the dimensional requirements for
debris collection space and spigot clearances are met. See diagram below.
This appliance requires a natural draught flue system which may be one of the following;
225mm x 225mm (9in x 9in) brick or stone
125mm (5in) minimum diameter lined brick or stone.
125mm (5in) minimum diameter twin wall flue conforming to BS 715.
Eco 4 may be used in a Pre-cast block flue complying with BS 1289.
To a fireplace that has a precast concrete or clay flue block system conforming to BS1289 or
BS EN 1858.
The appliance is suitable for installations conforming to older versions of BS1289 as well as
the current edition.
The flue blocks must have a minimum width not less than 63mm and a cross-sectional area
not less than 13,000mm2.
Older editions of BS1289 required a cross-sectional area of 13,000mm2.
The current revision of the standard requires 16,500mm2.

8
The current versions of BS1289 and BS EN 1806 recommend that there should be an air
space or insulation between the flue blocks and the plaster because heat transfer may cause
cracking on directly plastered flues.
However, generally this appliance is suitable for installations under all circumstances unless
there is a history of cracking problems, remember that faults such as cracking may be caused
by poorly built and restrictive flues, e.g. mortar extrusions, too many bends, flue heights
below three metres, restrictive terminations, etc.
Any existing draught device situated under the fireplace must be sealed off. The opening area
must be non-combustible; the appliance requires a hearth with non-combustible surface of at
least 300mm in depth and 12mm thick.
The top surface must be at least 50mm above the surrounding flooring level, or be
surrounded by a raised edge or fender 50mm high.
To enable the product of combustion to be cleared properly up the flue, the outlet at the back
of the appliance must have a 50mm minimum clearance between it and the back wall of the
opening or any other obstruction.
The area immediately above the outlet must form a smooth path into the flue.
The fireplace or builders open must be reduced to suite the appliance both side to side and
the full depth of the appliance, a decorative back panel i.e. marble, granite etc must not be
used as a closure plate for the appliance please see below.
TOP VIEW
Any type of fire surround used with this appliance must be adequately sealed to the wall and
floor; a combustible shelf may be fixed to the wall above the fire, providing that it complies
with the dimensions given below.
From Hearth to Underneath of Shelf with a depth of 150mm is 766mm add 12.5mm in height
for every 25mm increase to the projection of the shelf depth.
Any combustible side walls must be at least 500mm to the side of the radiant heat source.
As with all heating appliances, any decorations, soft furnishings, and wall coverings (i.e. flock,
blown vinyl and embossed paper) positioned too close to the appliance may discolour or
scorch.

9
Hole-in-the-wall installations
Where the appliance is to be installed as a hole-in-the-wall fireplace, a hearth as previously
detailed for floor level fireplaces shall be fitted on the floor beneath the hole so as to
protect combustible material from heat.
However, if a hearth is not to be used, so as to maintain a minimal and contemporary
look, the appliance must be installed so that every part of any naked flame
or incandescent part of the fire bed is at least 300mm vertically above any
carpet or floor covering.
When no hearth is to be fitted consideration must be given to fixing a tactile barrier to protect
young children, the elderly and the infirm.
A tactile barrier can be in the form of a fender, kerb, hearth, shelf or horizontal bar all made
from non-combustible material and fixed not less than 50mm & not more than 1000mm
above the floor level. They should be positioned not less than 300mm in front of the
appliance.
SECTION 5.1: PREFABRICATED FLUE BOXES
This appliance can be fitted into a number of flue boxes provided that the minimum
dimensions required for the appliance complied with.
The frame of the fire, any back panel or other infill panels, and the flue box must be sealed
together so that there is no possibility of leakage between them.
The correct clearances to combustible materials (i.e. false chimney breast etc) must be
adhered to.

The tray is now free and may be lifted away from the box, lift free of the retaining clips or
screws on each side of the burner tray.
Carefully remove the spark generator from the box or remove the cables to the generator,
making a note of which cable goes where.
You can now decide where to route your gas
pipe, knock out holes are provided in the rear
and side of the fire box for use where concealed
pipe work is required.
Knock out the holes with a screwdriver and a
sharp tap from a hammer and fit the rubber
grommet supplied.
On the slide control option the position is
located on the opposite side than shown.
Note: DO NOT install or use the appliance without this seal in place.
Failure to fit this seal correctly will cause the flue suction to act upon the area
under the burner tray resulting in poor performance, and overheating of this
area.

13
SECTION 7.1: PREPARING THE OPENING
Before installing the fire, check the flue for correct operation using a smoke pellet, all of the
smoke should be drawn up the flue and exit correctly from the terminal.
If problems are found DO NOT fit the fire until corrective measures have been completed.
Protect the decorative hearth whilst pushing the convector box in and out of the opening. Part
of the packaging or a dust sheet can be used.
Before running the gas supply into the opening, offer up the convector box to the fireplace to
check the fit is good.
Ensure that it slides in correctly, the sealing face sits flat and square to the wall or back
panel, and that the base level with the hearth as no leaks are permissible here.
At this stage it is essential to ensure that the spigot outlet of the fire is not obstructed in any
way.
Remove the fire box and apply the self adhesive sealing strips around the edge of the rear of
the firebox frame, approximately 5mm in from the edge.
CABLE FIXING:
Using the template provided, place this within the opening with the bottom edge of the
template level with the hearth.
Drill 3 x 6mm holes through the template as shown in the diagram and fit the Rawlplugs and
screw eyes supplied.
Note: In some instances, the plastic Rawlplugs supplied my need to be substituted
with fibre Rawlplugs, if the appliance is likely to heat the screw eyes

Thread the cable tensioner onto the cable as shown, with the nuts screwed down close to the
tensioner head, slide the screwed nipple through the box and pull cable taut and tighten
pinch screw on to the cable.
Adjust tensioner using a suitable spanner to pull the cable tight into position, to allow an even
seal around the edge of the fire, visually inspect the seal and reseat if necessary.
Fixing by screw:
Mark and drill the fire frame or base, and relevant points in the opening or on the wall. Raw
plugs will be required.
Note: Fibre Rawlplugs might be preferred rather than plastic Rawlplugs as the heat
from the fire might affect their efficiency.
Whilst the opening is ready for installation of the fire, the gas supply can be routed as
required and connected to the isolation tap via the 8mm compression fitting.
Note: In no circumstance should you use soft soldered connections to or
underneath the burner tray.
The isolator tap or restrictor elbow must be fitted to the incoming supply to facilitate
servicing, the gas pipe must be suitably protected where it passes through fireplace openings.
Any sleeving should be sealed to the pipe at its ends.
The open end of the gas supply pipe should be temporarily sealed to prevent ingress of dust
and dirt during installation.
At this point if you wish you can remove or fit the polished side cheeks to the fire box.
Pinch screw
Tension nut
Surplus tension cable MUST NOT be cut off as this
will prevent proper installation after servicing simply
coil up the surplus cable as shown and tuck the coils
out of the way.

16
SECTION 7.2 FITTING THE BURNER TRAY
Temporarily fit the burner tray and ensure a suitable gas route can be achieved.
If the fire is the manual control system, you can now place the burner tray into the firebox
making sure that the side lugs locate properly on to the side of the firebox.
Fit the two securing screws through the front plate ensuring that the plate is in front of the
front edge of the fire box.
Connect the gas supply and tighten the gas connections.
Note: Please ensure that the electrode spark igniters’ gap on the manual version
has not been misaligned during the handling of the burner in this installation the
gap should be 5mm from the burner.
Connect the gas supply and tighten the gas connections.
With the slide control option please reverse the previous removal instructions taking care to a
line the linkage system as shown below.

17
SECTION 8: FUEL BED LAYOUT
Place the ceramic rear matrix onto the burner ensuring that the rear matrix is sitting behind
the two fixed brackets, the back of the matrix rests against the back panel fitted at the rear
or the box.
Note: Please ensure that the support
brackets are level and that there is a
minimum 5mm to 10mm gap between the
burner and the bottom of the rear matrix,
this must not be touching the burner as
this will cause the fire to burn incorrectly
and cause damage to the fire and to
malfunction.
Please note the position on the
securing bracket and ensure this is
not fixed upside down which will
cause the fire not to work.

18
Place front matrix coal support into brackets fitted
Note: Please ensure that there is a gap between the back of the front
matrix and the pilot assembly where applicable, this is to ensure
correct operating of the pilot and O.D.S system, this must not be
touching the assembly as this will cause the fire to operate incorrectly
and cause damage to the fire and to malfunction.

19
Place the front row of 5 coals/pebbles between the front coal support and the rear matrix as
shown.
Now Place the second row as shown below, coals may be rotated slightly within their positions
to give a good visual effect.

20
Note: The coals must not be crammed together, or inserted into the holes in the matrix,
a well lay out; generously spaced coal layout will give the best results.
Pay special attention to finally adjust the coals with the fire lit on the HIGH setting in order to
ensure that no flames play onto the firebox sides.
This will reduce the possibility of heat discolouration.
