Installation Introduction Before the product can be installed, consideration will need to be given to routing the power supply to the fire. This will affect the stages of the installation process. We advise a qualified electrician conduct any electrical parts of the installation. Note: A single wall socket is required for the operation of the fire, please refer to the separate fire instructions for further information.
Assembly- Pre-fabricated Chimney Breast Before commencing further with the installation please ensure the 2 X Fire Support Brackets have been attached to the MDF Framework, these set the minimum depth required for installation- 238mm. As shown on Page 4. Decide on the installation height of the fire and construct the studwork around the MDF Framework. The studwork construction in Diagram 2 is for guidance only.
Assembly- Existing Masonry Chimney Breast Before commencing further with the installation please ensure the 2 X Fire Support Brackets have been attached to the MDF Framework, these set the minimum depth required for installation- 238mm. As shown on Page 4. We recommend sealing the MDF Framework using an appropriate sealer, especially if the installation site is damp, however this is down to the discretion of the installer.
