Unit installation

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. If, however, this is unavoidable, the extreme bottom edge of the fabric must be at
least 780mm above the base of the fire.
4.8
This appliance does not require a non-combustible hearth. It can be installed on
any hard surface. This surface should be level and sufficiently flat to enable the bottom
of the fascia / firefront casting to be aligned horizontally. Any unevenness (Uneven tiles,
Cotswold stone etc.) should be rectified.
The appliance must not stand on carpet or other textured surfaces which may
interfere with the flow of convection air through the bottom of the appliance.
The
floor surface that must be free of carpets, rugs or other fabric coverings should be at
least as wide as the appliance fascia and project forward at least 300mm from the rear
wall. In order to prevent carpet etc. being placed within this area, we strongly
recommend that the appliance is installed on a raised hearth or that the periphery of this
area is bordered by a fender.
4.9 The appliance must not stand on combustible materials or carpets.
