based materials may not be suitable. This appliance is
an effective heat producer and attention must be paid to
the construction and finish of the fireplace.

STUDWORK INSTALLATION
5.6 If a studwork installation is used (eg. wooden framework and
plasterboard), combustible parts of the studwork must not
be any closer than the minimum dimensions shown in the
diagrams. NOTE: These dimensions must be maintained
even if the combustible materials is protected by non-
combustible linings.
5.7 Do not pack the void around or above the appliance with
insulation materials such as mineral wool.
5.8 The void into which the cassette is fitted must be ventilated
to prevent a build up of heat. It is necessary to fit vents at
both low and high levels of mininum 200cm
2
each. These
vents should take cold air from the room and return warm air
back into the room.
5.9 A removable access hatch must be left in the side of the
chimney breast for future servicing and inspection of the
appliance.
5.10 Build the studwork chimney breast to the desired size.
Ensure that the clearances to combustible materials is
maintained.
PROTECT THE NEAREST STUDWORK WITH
NON-COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL AND MAINTAIN THESE
DIMENSIONS AT ALL TIMES, SEE DIAGRAM 4.

combustible material is protected by non combustible board.
Non-combustible
board
It is recommended that a marble slip or similar material is
used when fitting cassette fireplaces into a plastered
surface, in order to allow for heat dissipation. Also allow
adequate time for newly plastered areas to dry out. Rapid
drying can create cracks. If in doubt, seek the advice of a
professional plasterer.
Parts of this appliance become hot during normal use. It is
therefore recommended that a suitable fire guard be used
for protection of young children and the infirm.
