INSTALLATION

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

Note - All installations must conform to the appropriate building regulations.

The Building Regulations for England and Wales 2000 ref Approved Document J 2002 edition (issued by the DTLR).

The Building Standards (Scotland) (Consolidation) Regulations.

Detailed recommendations for installation of appliances, chimneys and flues are outlined in the current issue of the following British Standards:- BS6461, BS8303 and BS4543.

Any Manufacturer's Instructions must not be taken as overriding statutory requirements.

During installation ensure that adequate precautions are taken to avoid unnecessary risk to yourself or any householder. In particular the danger from the caustic nature of the fire cement should be avoided by using these accepted methods:

Wear gloves when handling fire cement.

Wear goggles when chiselling or looking up chimneys.

Make sure that Building Regulations are adhered to during installation along with any local by-laws. In the case of heating systems make sure that the pipe work is correctly bonded to ensure electrical earthing.

HANDLING

By the time you read this you will appreciate the weight of the appliance. The Safety and handling guidelines as set out on page 5 of this manual should be followed.

To make movement easier internal fittings, fuel retainers, grates, firebox liners, flue outlets, hot plate, throat plate, etc., can be removed.

Care should be taken to make sure that the hinges are not damaged during installation.

HEARTH

The fire should be installed to stand on a constructional hearth of non-combustible materials not less than 125mm (5'') thick conforming to Building Regulations. Dimensions of the hearth should project at least 300mm (12'') forward of the front of the appliance and 150mm (6'') at the sides. The surface of the hearth should be free of combustible materials. In most buildings with solid concrete floors the requirement will be met by the floor itself, but mark the perimeter of the hearth to ensure floor coverings are kept well away or use different levels to mark the hearth perimeter.

COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS

A gap of at least 450mm (18'') should be allowed between the appliance and any combustible materials including furnishings. Adjacent walls should be of suitable non-combustible construction, preferably brickwork. In large fireplaces take care that any supporting beam is protected by a 13mm (0.5'') sheet of Masterboard/Supalux spaced 13mm (0.5'') off the surface with strips of non-combustible material

- not wood.

Make sure that there is a gap between an uninsulated flue system and any combustible material. This gap must be at least 3 x the outside diameter of the flue pipe, or 1.5 x the flue diameter to non combustible surfaces. See the illustration on page 22.

AIR FOR COMBUSTION

There must always be a permanent means of providing air for combustion into the room in which the fire is installed. A permanent vent with a total free area of at least 550mm2 for every kW rated output above 5kw should be connected directly to the outside air or to an adjacent room which itself has a permanent vent of the same size direct to the outside air. The fitting of an extractor fan to either of these rooms is not recommended.

ACCESS TO THERMOSTAT

A gap of 125mm around the body, and 100mm to the rear of the stove is necessary to enable access to service & repair the thermostatic control system.
