Installation Checklist
Non-Combustible Materials
4.2 All appliances will require some clearance between them
and any non-combustible materials to allow for either:
— Installation, servicing or accessing controls.
— Convection in order for the appliance to function properly.
Minimum clearances for installation/servicing/convection is:
Rear - 25mm Sides - 50mm Top - 100mm
NOTE: If the non-combustible surface is less than
200mm thick additional clearances may be required.
This requirement ensures that the non-combustible material
does not transmit excessive heat through the wall onto
combustible material which might be placed against it.
See Diagrams 4 & 5 (Fireplaces)& Diagram 6
(Freestanding) and table below.
