Section 2: INSTALLATION REQUIREMENT
This appliance MUST NOT is 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.
Pre-cast flues must be checked for mortar fangs and correct installation of joints, flue sections in loft space
and terminals.
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 is rated below 6.3Kw and does not normally require purpose provided ventilation.
However, if 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.
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. Fig 1
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 4HE 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 flue blocks must have a minimum depth not less than 63mm and a cross-sectional area
not less than the current revision of the standard requiring 16,500mm2.

9
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 and therefore is not the responsibility of the manufacture
of this appliance.
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 800mm 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.

10
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.

This appliance can be fitted into a number of flue boxes provided that the minimum dimensions required
for the appliance complied with.
Spigot outlet of the appliance must have a minimum clearance of 60mm to the rear of the fire, also ensure
there are no obstructions above between the appliance and the flue box outlet.
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 manufacturers’ instructions for fitting the prefabricated box must be complied with at all times.
To fit the fire using the cable fixing kit supplied, some minor adaption may be necessary for certain flue
boxes.
Please ensure the firebox does not obscure the flue box outlet.
The firebox, base of the flue box, and hearth below may be drilled to allow plugs and screws to secure
installation.
It is important that the sealing requirements of the appliance are met at all times and that the flue box is
sealed to any back or infill panel.

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.

15
Drill 4 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.
If the fireplace does not allow for the exact layout shown, the eyebolts should be fixed to give a similar
configuration as possible.
Thread the tensioning cable through the holes at the top of the firebox, then through the two screw eyes
in the top position and then through the one at the lower position, back through the lower hole in the
firebox as shown in the diagram.

SECTION 9: FITTING THE DECORATIVE FRAME
The appliance is supplied with a decorative frame, the frame attaches to the firebox as a three piece or one
piece clip-on unit.
Place the magnets supplied to the outer frame of the fire box.
A plastic protective coating may be applied to the face of the frame assembly, which should be removed at
this stage; the one piece unit can be placed in position.
With the three piece unit you should start with the side pieces of the clip-on assembly, these should be
pushed into position first, followed by the top bar, which should overlap the sides.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to the possibility of sharp edges, care should be taken when handling
the three piece frame components, the use of protective gloves is recommended.
Place the fire front/ fret into position in front of the fire and slide the ash pan door into place.
The fire front/fret shown in these instructions may differ from the one supplied with the appliance, we
strongly recommend you use a fire front/fret supplied by Sirocco fires as these products will have been
tested with the appliance, although other fire front/frets will be compatible.
Section 10: COMMISSIONING THE APPLIANCE
