INSTALLER GUIDE department. Under no circumstances is the fire to be recessed into Timber frame constructions. For timber framed installations see section 7. 4.4 The installation must be in accordance with this guide. For the user’s protection, in the United Kingdom it is the law that all gas appliances are installed by competent persons in accordance with the current edition of the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations. Failure to install the appliance correctly could lead to prosecution.
INSTALLER GUIDE Graph 1. Combustible shelf clearances. There is no restriction on the position or depth of non-combustible projections for all normal installations. Installation into an unusually tightly restricted recess, however, could cause the temperature of the appliance surfaces to become unacceptably high. 4.7 It is advisable that combustible fabrics such as curtains are not fitted above the fire.
INSTALLER GUIDE 4.10 A hole 152mm (6in) dia. is required through the wall for the flue unit. The height of the hole centre is shown in figure 1 and on the wall-fixing template supplied with the appliance. 4.11 This appliance has exposed battery and electric motor components. It is not recommended, therefore, that it be used in rooms which contains a bath, shower or where steam is regularly present due to the possibility of corrosion or electrical shorting. 4.

INSTALLER GUIDE 5.2 Appliance disassembly. 5.2.1 Fascia removal on the Decadent model (See figure 5). ! Remove the two screws securing the bottom of the fascia to the sides of the convection box. ! Raise the fascia to allow the retaining lugs at the top to clear the slots in the convection box hood and then lift clear. ! Place the fascia in a safe place away from your immediate work area. 5.2.2 Window and ceramic fuel effect removal (Both models).
INSTALLER GUIDE 5.3.2 Check flame control motor. (See figure 8) ! Lift the plastic battery holder out of its metal support situated at the lower right corner. ! Fit the four 1.5V batteries and replace the battery holder. ! Place the fascia in front of the fire and connect the battery and motor leads. The motor lead connectors are two different sizes. They will only fit to the correct motor terminals. ! Depress the top half of the rocker switch located at the right side of the appliance case.
INSTALLER GUIDE 7. WALL PREPARATION 7.1 Select appliance position. The flue must be installed so that it is at right angles to the back panel of the fire all round the flue circumference. For timber framed buildings make sure that the flue opening will be between studs. When being recessed into a non-combustible wall or builders opening the fire itself should be fitted vertically against a flat wall.
INSTALLER GUIDE ! Insert the lintel. Bed the lintel on mortar. Don’t dry bed. Slate pin to ensure the lintel and structure above is secure and safe ! Make the opening below the lintel by removing the masonry and clearing debris. If the cavity has loose fill (e.g. granular) insulation material, pack the edges of the opening with Rockwool as you proceed to hold back the insulating material. 7.2.2 Preparing a wall cavity. ! The wall cavity must not be bridged other than by the flue unit.
INSTALLER GUIDE sheet can be used to seal the annular gap between the flue unit and the inner leaf sleeve - see section 7.5. Do not permanently fix the insulating sheet to the wall at this stage see section 8.2. 7.4 Cutting the flue hole for brick, stone etc. building. Cut the hole for the flue unit. Make sure that it is straight and level. Though a hammer and chisel can be used, using a core drill is by far the quickest and simplest method for normal brick work.
INSTALLER GUIDE non-combustible sleeve 203mm (8in.) diameter will be required round the flue (See figure 11). ! Cut a hole through the inner leaf to accommodate a non-combustible sleeve 203mm (8in.) outside diameter. To minimise the effect of breaking through the vapour control layer (VCL), if possible, cut the hole approximately 10mm undersize so that the sleeve will be forced through the layer. A recommended technique for cutting the inner leaf is shown in figure 11.
INSTALLER GUIDE ! Insert four plastic wall plugs supplied. 7.6.2 Using cable retention. ! Thread the two tension cables through the appliance case side holes as shown in figure 12. ! Move the appliance towards the recess and mark on the recess back wall the position for the two eyebolt holes. ! Remove the appliance and drill at the marked positions using a no.12 masonry drill. ! Insert the two fibre wall plugs supplied. ! Fit the two eyebolts. Figure 12. Cable retention 8. FLUE TERMINAL INSTALLATION 8.

INSTALLER GUIDE 8.2 Fitting to wall. ! Fit the flue tubes firmly over the spigots at the rear of the fire. Make sure that the seam on the flue tube is not at the bottom. Push on until the outer (air) tube just covers the slots in the appliance outer spigot (See figure 14). ! Secure the flue to the fire by drilling through the outer flue tube and outer spigot at a distance of between 6mm & 7mm from the cut end of the outer flue tube and securing with the two no.6 self tapping screws supplied (See figure 14).
INSTALLER GUIDE 8.3 Fitting the terminal guard. ! Fold the terminal guard as shown in figure 15. ! Place the guard centrally over the flue terminal. ! Holding the guard in position and using it as a template, mark on the wall the positions of the four fixing holes. ! Remove the guard. Drill and plug the holes with the four plugs supplied. ! Replace the guard and refix with four woodscrews supplied. Figure 15. Terminal guard 9. GAS CONNECTION Connecting the gas supply pipe.
