BS EN 1858 / BS1289 Chimneys Components & Concrete Flue Blocks
IS813:1996 Domesc Gas Installaon (Republic of Ireland)
Prior to installaon ensure that the gas supply is compable with the appliance, this appliance must only be
used on natural gas at a supply pressure of 20 mbar as marked on the data plate on the appliance and the
carton.
This appliance is only to be installed into a builders opening which must be constructed of non-combusble
materials confirming to BS1251 or a suitable flue-box complying with the requirements of BS715/BS EN
1856-2.
If the product is being installed into a builders opening the chimney must be at least 3 metres in height and
should be swept before installaon if it has been used for the burning of solid fuel (e.g. coal or wood). The
chimney must only serve as a flue-way to this appliance and must have no openings to any other room. The
opening should be inspected and any exposed brickwork should be repaired where necessary. The chair-
brick (if applicable) should be removed. Ensure that the chimney/flue only serves one fireplace. Remove or
securely fix open any dampers or register plates.
If the product is being installed into a fabricated Flue-box (to BS715) it must be installed onto a non-
combusble surface with a thickness of at least 12mm.
The flue should be checked for draw using a smoke bomb or similar, if there is a definite draw then the
installaon of the appliance can proceed.


No purpose made venlaon is normally required for this appliance when installed in G.B. If the appliance is
being installed in I.E then refer to I.S 813:1996 (Domesc Gas Installaon—Naonal Standards Authority of
Ireland). Venlaon areas (if applicable) should be checked periodically to ensure there is no obstrucon,
even though none is normally required for this appliance.
SPILLAGE TEST: To check for sasfactory clearance of products of combuson, close all doors and windows
and leave the appliance burning on HIGH for five minutes. Insert a lit smoke match just into the top of the
fire opening and move it le and right, all the smoke must be drawn into the flue. If spillage occurs allow a
further 5 minutes and repeat the test. If spillage sll occurs turn off the appliance and seek expert advise . If
an extractor fan is situated in the room the spillage test should be repeated with the fan running. If there is a
connecng room with an extractor fan the test should be repeated with all the doors to that room open and
the extractor fan running. If the appliance spills with the restrictor fied then the restrictor should be
removed and the spillage test repeated. If the spillage test connues to fail expert advise should be sought
and addional venlaon may have to be provided.
This appliance must only be installed onto a suitable hearth with a minimum thickness of 12mm with an
overall height of 50mm from the floor. The appliance must not be installed directly onto carpet or other
combusble floor materials. The fireplace surround (back-panel) must have a temperature rang of at least
150oC.
Do not place so wall coverings (i.e. embossed papers etc,) furniture or other combusble items too close to
the fires as they may discolour or scorch.
Do not place or throw rubbish or otherwise onto the fuel-bed.
Do not place any combusble materials or flooring (i.e. carpets etc,) on any part of the hearth.
WARNING: This appliance has a naked flame and as with all heang appliances a fireguard should be used
for the protecon of children, the elderly and infirm. The fireguard should conform to BS8423 : 2002
(Fireguards or use with Gas Heang Appliances).
Important Note: It is quite normal for a flame effect gas appliance to experience a small amount of soot or
staining to some parts of the fuel effect components. If this becomes excessive it may be because the fuel
bed is not fied correctly—this should be checked according to these installaon instrucons prior to
contacng a service engineer.
It is very important that you arrange for a GAS SAFE registered engineer to service your appliance every year
– during this service the engineer will remove the appliance and check for debris, check the operaon of the
flue and check the operaon of the appliance. This is important for you and your families safety.
NEVER place any rubbish or otherwise onto the fire—this will affect the way the product operates and may
affect the warranty of the product.
NEVER place more ceramic components onto the fuel bed than specified in the instrucons.
NEVER touch the ceramics when the appliance has recently been switched off—these components retain
heat and may cause burns. Leave the appliance to sufficiently cool prior to any contact of the ceramics.

SITING THE APPLIANCE
Fireplace Opening
IMPORTANT NOTE: This appliance DOES NOT seal onto a marble or stone back panel. The fire is installed directly onto the
FIXING PLATE assembly. This is detailed on pages 6 & 7.
This FIXING PLATE is also used to support the marble or stone back panel. This back panel should have the following cut-
out : WIDTH 560mm—580mm HEIGHT: 585mm—605mm
A non-combusble fireplace back panel is required with a temperature rang of at least 150
o
C. (This is also known as
CLASS”O” - If in doubt please contact the supplier of the back panel to check suitability). It is recommended that the back
panel be constructed of 3 secons with joints across the upper level of the fireplace opening to allow for expansion and
contracon. This back panel should then be bonded to form a single piece using a suitable substrate. The installaon of this
appliance into an unsuitable back panel, where this component subsequently cracks, will not be deemed to be a fault of the
appliance.
The fireplace opening (NOT THE BACK PANEL) must be between 405mm and 460mm wide and between 565mm and
590mm high. The FIXING PLATE supplied will fit into this fireplace opening and prepare the installaon. If the fireplace
opening is outside these dimensions then the opening should be made good to these dimensions using a suitable non-
combusble material before proceeding. A flat face of a minimum 630mm wide and 630mm high must be provided around
the fireplace opening to ensure a good seal is formed between the FIXING PLATE and the wall. In addion it is important to
ensure that the base of the fireplace opening is flat and level with the hearth surface to ensure a secure and aligned
installaon of the appliance.
The minimum hearth dimensions are shown in the diagram above. The upper surface of the hearth must be a minimum of
50mm above the floor and must protrude a minimum distance of 375mm out from the fireplace opening.
Installaon into a Brick Chimney
When the appliance is being installed into a brick chimney there must be sufficient depth behind the appliance to
accommodate any falling debris. This debris collecon void should be capable of accommodang twelve (12)litres of
volumetric space. The appliance will require a debris collecon space behind the firebox of 39mm (total depth of 169mm)
to achieve this if the fireplace opening is 400mm. If the fireplace width is 460mm wide this clearance can be reduced to
17mm (total depth of 147mm).
Installaon into a Prefabricated Twin Wall Metal Flue Box
This appliance can be installed into a prefabricated metal twin wall flue box providing it complies to the requirements of
BS715 / BS EN 1856-2. The box must have an insulated flue with a minimum diameter of 125mm (5”) diameter and a
minimum effecve overall height of 3 metres.
The top outer face of the flue box should be insulated to prevent heat loss with a layer of mineral wool insulaon or similar.
The metal flue box (to BS715) must stand on a non-combusble surface with a minimum thickness of 12mm.


6
Checking the Flue
Use a smoke pellet prior to the appliance installaon to ensure the viability of the flue and check that the smoke can be
seen being emied from the terminal / chimney pot outside. There must be no leakage of smoke through the structure of
the chimney/flue during or aer the smoke pellet test and it is important to check inside upstairs rooms adjacent to the
chimney/flue. Check the chimney pot / terminal and general condion of the brickwork or masonry. If the chimney or flue is
in poor condion or if there is no up-draught do not proceed with the installaon. If there is a history of down-draught
condions with the chimney / flue, the installaon of a tested and cerficated flue terminal or cowl suitable for the relevant
flue type should be considered.
A spillage test must be performed—see page 4 of these instrucons.
Preparaons for Fixing the Appliance
IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS FIXING PLATE IS INSTALLED
BEFORE THE BACK PANEL, FIRE & MANTEL ARE FITTED
When the hearth has been installed and the fireplace opening is prepared as per the details on page 5 of these instrucons,
the appliance installaon can commence. This appliance MUST be installed with the FIXING PLATE supplied. First, apply the
rubber seal to the rear face of the FIXING PLATE . This seal should sit within 50mm (2 inches) of the fireplace opening and
run around the enre perimeter of the fireplace opening. This plate is screwed to the wall using the 8 screws and rawl plugs
provided through the fixing holes shown in the diagram.
Fit the rubber seal to the rear face of the FIXING PLATE,
ensuring that the seal will make contact with the wall
surrounding the fireplace opening over its enre
length.
Secure the FIXING PLATE assembly into the
fireplace opening as shown. Use the eight
(8) screws and rawlplugs provided.
Ensure that the FIXING PLATE assembly is
fied centrally to the hearth.


7
Installing the Back Panel
Ideally the back panel should be constructed from a 3 piece panel and reassembled using suitable materials. This type of back
panel will ensure that no corner cracking occurs over me. A ’loose’ 3 piece panel can be installed but care should be taken
to ensure that the joint line is square.
Ensure that the FIXING PLATE is set to provide a 76mm (3”) distance from the front face of the back panel, to the wall (See
below).
It is recommended that a dry run is performed to ensure that the back panel will in fact be in the correct posion when fied,
and that the mantel will fit correctly to the rebate and maintain contact with the wall.
Carefully posion the back panel onto the FIXING PLATE. The front retaining clip will hold the back panel in posion while the
mantel legs are posioned and fixed. If necessary this top clip can be removed (aer the mantel legs are securely fasted).
This would normally only be the case if the wall had extreme variaons causing a gap between the back panel and the leg
rebates.
Front Retaining Clip—Can be
removed later if necessary.


8
Now unroll and fit the rock wool as shown below. This should sit around the perimeter of the FIXING PLATE.
Under NO circumstances should this fireplace be commissioned without the installaon of the Rockwool provided.
Combusble Shelf
This appliance may be fied below a surround with a combusble shelf providing the following dimensional criteria are
met:
There must be a minimum distance of 250mm from the top of the appliance to the underside of the shelf. The shelf must
not project more than 150mm from the mounng surface of the appliance into the room. If the shelf projects more than
150mm then the distance between the top of the appliance and the underside of the shelf must be increased accordingly;
for every 10mm of projecon above 150mm the distance between the fire and shelf must be increased by 20mm
Shelf Protrusion Min. Distance Between Fire and Shelf
150mm 250mm
160mm 270mm
170mm 290mm
180mm 310mm
190mm 330mm
200mm 350mm
No w slide and adjust the four (4) BACK PANEL CLAMPS by
releasing the screws and sliding the clamp forward to secure the
back panel at the correct distance for the mantel rebate.
If necessary the top clip can be removed (aer the mantel legs
are securely fastened). This would normally only be the case if
the wall had extreme variaons causing a gap between the back
panel and the leg rebates.
The mantel can now be fied, and the back panel adjusted
into the correct posion.

Connecng the Appliance to the Gas Supply
In all installaon condions the gas connecon should be provided using 8mm (O/D) copper tubing. No soldered joints
should be used with the firebox of the appliance. The blind grommet which is supplied in the standard fing pack should
be used to close up the knock out hole—simply cut a small cross with a sharp knife in the centre of the grommet—this will
then seal around the gas pipe to provide a ght seal. Under no circumstances should this gas entry hole be le open and
unsealed as this can result in flame reversal and can cause damage to the appliance. Should this occur the warranty to
this appliance will be rendered void.
Before connecng the gas supply to the appliance a gas soundness test should be performed to ensure that the exisng
pipe work in the property is sound.
The burner tray can now be reinstalled into the firebox using the seven (7) screws and two (2) nuts - see page 14
The gas connecon should be made to the appliance by the 8mm restrictor isolaon valve supplied with the appliance.
This restrictor elbow is supplied loose and should be fied as per the label on the instrucon packet.
Prepare the Appliance for Installaon
Remove the glass front panel and the ceramic components from the unit (see glass removal instrucons on page 10).
Remove the burner tray from the appliance. (For instrucons see page 14).
If the concealed installaon method is chosen, there are three oponal entry points at the rear/side of the appliance. The
relevant ‘knock-out’ entry point should be removed to allow the gas supply to enter the appliance.
Carefully slide the firebox into the firebox opening. (Note the rubber seal is pre-fied to the appliance on the sealing face.
Fix the appliance into posion centrally on the hearth using the five (5) securing nuts supplied. Note the appliance has slots
at these posions to allow a small amount of movement le or right to allow it to be secured centrally. See diagram below.

Removal of the front glass panel.
The top glass clamp is held in place with 3 screws. This panel
is concealed behind the top cover strip which is held in place
by two magnets. The two magnets are fied to the top glass
clamp as shown in this diagram.
Carefully remove the 3 fixing screws and whilst supporng
the glass panel, remove the clamp. Now li the glass from
the appliance. The boom edge of the glass is retained in
the two supports boom le and right.
Now the ceramics can be installed, rearranged correctly or
removed for service. Correct installaon of ceramics see
pages 17—23.

Installaon of the front glass panel.
Before replacing the glass ensure that the seal around the top
and two sides of the firebox is in good condion and is
securely affixed to the appliance. If the seal is damaged or
loose then it should be replaced / reaffixed before the glass is
replaced. This seal is important and if damaged, the appliance
should not be operated.
The glass panel should be undamaged. If the glass panel is
broken or cracked it should not be used. Contact the
manufacturer for a suitable replacement before connuing.
Replace the glass panel into posion by locang the boom
edge into the two lower supports., and securing the top edge
with the top clamp. The top clamp is secured with three (3)
fixing screws (as detailed above).
Ensuring the two magnets are in the correct posion (see
above) then the top cover can be placed into posion. This
component is purely decorave and is used to conceal the
top clamp fixing structure.


11
Install the ceramics into the appliance according to these instrucons—see pages 17 through to 23.
Refit the glass panel and the decorave strip to cover the screws and retaining clamp—See page 10
Test the operang pressure of the appliance by aaching a pressure gauge to the test point of the appliance. This
connecon should take place when the appliance is OFF. Ensure that gas is turned on at the gas meter and purge the air
from the appliance by:
SLIDE CONTROL UNITS: Push down the control lever fully to the (IGN) posion and hold. The spark generator
should spark connuously, ensure the spark is being generated correctly at the pilot
assembly. Connue with this procedure unl the air is purged from the appliance and the
pilot is lit. Once lit hold the lever pushed down for up to a further 10-15 seconds. Once the
pilot is established and secure allow the lever to rise to the (LOW) posion then li the
lever to the (HIGH) posion. Allow the appliance to run for a minimum period of 5
minutes. Next check that the inlet pressure to the appliance is 20 mbar ±1 mbar. Li the
lever to the posion to turn OFF.
Check the operaon of the appliance according to these instrucons—see page 16.
Spillage monitoring System
This appliance is fied with an atmospheric sensing system in the form of an oxygen sensing pilot burner. This is designed
to shut the fire off in the event of products being spilled into the room where the fire is being operated. It is important to
note that this spillage monitoring device should not be disabled or be adjusted by the installer. If the spillage monitoring
device (O.D.S pilot) is replaced it must only be exchanged with a suitable component which is supplied by Hearth Products
Ltd.

Check the clearance of combuson products
SPILLAGE TEST: To check for sasfactory clearance
of products of combuson, close all doors and
windows and leave the appliance burning on HIGH
for five minutes. Insert a lit smoke match just into
the gap a the top centre of the fire. It is
recommended that a smoke match holder be used.
All the smoke must be drawn into the flue. If spillage
occurs allow a further 5 minutes and repeat the test.
If spillage sll occurs turn off the appliance and seek
expert advice. If an extractor fan is situated in the
room the spillage test should be repeated with the
fan running. If there is a connecng room with an
extractor fan the test should be repeated with all the
doors to that room open and the extractor fan
running.

Compleng the Installaon of the Appliance
Remove the protecve covering (if applicable) from the face of the decorave trim. To fit the trim to the appliance the
four adjustable mounng features at the rear of the trim need to be set. To allow for a tolerance with the installaon the
trim can be adjusted to sit fore and a as is required to give a neat fit of the trim. The trim should ideally sit approximately
1mm in front of the back panel. Adjust the mounng features unl the best fit is achieved.
This appliance should only be installed with the trim and fret assembly supplied. Installaon of any other non-specified
trim/fret may cause the appliance to operate incorrectly and may void the warranty on the appliance.
THE INSTALLER MUST INFORM THE CUSTOMER OF THE FOLLOWING TO COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION
Demonstrate the lighng of the appliance and the controls to control the heat sengs. Demonstrate how to exnguish the
fire.
Demonstrate the removal of the trim and fret and how to reinstall correctly.
Discuss the removal and reinstallaon of the glass and the ceramics. Explain how they should be cleaned and make the
customer aware of the health and safety warning detailed later in these instrucons.
Explain to the customer that the ceramics are fragile and must be treated with great care, explain that the ceramics are
not covered by the warranty because of their fragility. Also explain that small hairline cracks will appear in the surface of
the ceramics due to heat expansion and contracon—this is perfectly normal.
During the first several hours of use an odour will be experienced—this is normal and is the starch used in the
manufacturing of the ceramic fuel bed. This odour is non toxic and will eventually disappear with use.
Advise that no rubbish should be thrown onto the appliance and that the appliance should be cleaned regularly.
A vacuum cleaner can be used but it is important that the appliance is turned off and allowed to cool before undertaking
this procedure. See the separate secon regarding cleaning the ceramics.
Advise the customer that the appliance should be serviced annually by a GAS SAFE engineer to ensure the safety and
integrity of the appliance.
Advise the customer that the appliance has a naked flame and therefore it is essenal that a suitable fireguard be used for
the protecon of the elderly, infirm and young children. This fireguard should conform to BS8423 : 2002 (Fireguards or use
with Gas Heang Appliances).
These instrucons must be handed over to the customer once installaon is complete.

Appliance Technical Informaon
Gas Type : Natural Gas Category : I2H Inlet Pressure: (Cold) 20mbar
Heat Input Gross : 5.3kW Injector : 69 Desnaon Countries : GB/ IE
HEALTH AND SAFETY NOTICE
This appliance uses fuel effect pieces manufactured from Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF). Care must be taken to avoid
excessive exposure to these materials as they may cause irritaon to the eyes, skin, nose and throat. When handling, avoid
inhaling and contact with skin and eyes. It is recommended that disposable gloves are worn in addion to a facemask and
eye protecon. Aer handling, wash hands thoroughly and any other exposed parts which may have come in to contact
with the material.
If a vacuum cleaner is used to clean the fuel bed or areas around the appliance where fragments of the material may have
fallen it is recommended that it be of the type fied with a HEPA filter.
Care should be taken when disposing of RCF materials. It is important to keep any dust to a minimum so it is recommended
that the fuel effect components are placed into a heavy duty plasc bag. The bag should be clearly labelled RCF WASTE.
These materials are not classified as hazardous waste and should be disposed of at a site approved for the disposal of
industrial waste.
Maintenance of the Appliance
The following procedures can and should be performed by the customer at regular intervals depending upon use of the
appliance.
Cleaning the Appliance
Fuel Bed
The fuel effect components supplied with this product are extremely fragile and must be handled with great care. The
ceramics in this appliance are not covered by the warranty due to their fragility. This includes the RCF fibre boards in the fire
box. These components will break or chip if not handled with the greatest of care.
Cleaning of these components should only be undertaken once the appliance is switched off and has been allowed to cool
for a minimum period of one hour. The components should be lied carefully piece by piece from the appliance and placed
onto a dust sheet or similar. They can be brushed gently with a so brush to remove any dust or deposits. If you intend to
use a vacuum cleaner then this should only be done once the loose deposits of soot etc have been removed. Ensure that the
moulded components are structurally sound and no significant part of the moulding has broken away. If any component has
broken then it should be replaced before using the appliance. Only the correct replacement part as supplied by the
manufacturer shall be used in this appliance. Do not add any addional components to the fuel bed layout. It is important
to note that small hairline cracks will appear in the surface of the ceramics due to heat expansion and contracon—this is
perfectly normal.
Pilot
The pilot to this appliance has a small aeraon hole
at its base. Using a thin nozzle on a vacuum cleaner
this area can be cleaned to prevent a lint build up.
This procedure should only be undertaken when the
appliance is off and cold. If excessive lint is drawn in
through this hole due to infrequent cleaning then it
may result in the appliance not lighng or turning
itself off automacally due to a starvaon of air at
the pilot burner. This can oen be remedied by
performing the cleaning operaon detailed here. If
this procedure does not resolve such a problem
then the pilot assembly will need to be replaced.
This must involve the installaon of the same part as
supplied by the manufacturer. Excessive lint build up
which results in appliance operaonal problems is
not covered by warranty. It is important to ensure
this preventave maintenance is performed
regularly (once a month during the winter period).


14
Cleaning the Appliance (connued)
Trim, Fret and Painted Metal Parts
There are a variety of trim and fret opons which may have been supplied with your appliance and these are normally a
plated material on a steel substrate. It is important that no abrasive cleaners or chemical agents are used in the cleaning
of these components. It is recommended that all these surfaces including the painted metal parts are cleaned with a
clean damp (not wet) cloth. Cleaning should only take place when the appliance is switched off and has been switched off
for a minimum period of one hour.
The following procedures can and should only be performed by a GAS SAFE registered installer.
This appliance should be serviced annually by a GAS SAFE registered installer.
Removal / Replacement of Gas Carrying Components.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is available with two operang methods, namely manual control and slide control. The following
instrucons detail both methods of operaon however the basic operaon of the appliance involves the ignion of a
pilot burner (See page 11 for spillage monitoring details—ODS), then the control of the main burner with LOW and HIGH
sengs.
This appliance has a naked flame and as with all heang appliances a fireguard should be used for the
protecon of children, the elderly and infirm. The fireguard should conform to BS8423 : 2002 (Fireguards or
use with Gas Heang Appliances).
SLIDE CONTROL OPERATION
1. Push the control lever down fully to the IGN symbol . The spark generator should cause a repeve spark at
the pilot and the pilot should ignite. If the pilot does not light aer 10 seconds then li the control lever upwards
to the OFF symbol and wait for 3 minutes.
2. Once the pilot is lit keep the control lever pushed down fully for up to 15 seconds.
3. Now slowly li the control lever to the symbol, the pilot should remain lit and the burner will be in the LOW
seng. If it goes out, li the control lever to the OFF symbol and wait for 3 minutes. Then return to step 1.
4. To set the appliance to the HIGH seng, li the control lever upwards to the flame symbol.
5 It is also possible to adjust the control knob between the and the flame symbols to achieve a mid seng.
6 To turn the fire off, li the lever to the symbol to turn off.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Should the spark generator fail to provide a spark at the electrode it may be that a small amount of
soot has fallen from the fuel bed onto the pilot assembly, causing a short circuit. If this is the case, ensuring the
appliance is off and cold, this area can be cleaned with the thin nozzle from a vacuum cleaner. Alternavely check the
baery is in good condion—the baery access cover is at the base of the appliance just le of centre.
It is also possible to light the pilot burner with a long taper whilst the control lever is being held at the IGN symbol .
