Installation Instructions
1. Installing the Appliance
Each installation is unique to the property so it is not possible
to give details to suit every setting. The installation must comply
with Building Regulations
and be made using "best practice"
construction methods
.
The clearance to combustible materials for the Stovax Studio
models is greatly different due to the higher temperatures that
the appliance can reach. Extra care must be taken when creating
a builders opening. Pay careful attention to the distance to
combustible materials recommended and ensure the housing for
the appliance is built from non-combustible material.
Many fireplace openings have a supporting lintel. Do not remove
without supporting the remaining structure of the building. Do not
support the structure with the appliance or the flue system.
1.1 Take care when installing the appliance. Careless
handling and use of tools can damage the finish and/or
area.
NOTE: If installing with an Outside Air Kit, and/or a
Heat Shield, please consult manuals PM732 and PM361
prior to installation.
