INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION
6.6The void into which the appliance is fitted must be ventilated to prevent a build up of heat. If the void is sealed then it will be necessary to fit vents at both low and high levels of approximately 50cm2. These vents should take cold air from the room and return warm air back into the room.
This method of installation requires structural alteration to the intended location. A suitable supporting lintel must be installed to maintain the structural integrity of the surrounding blockwork.
7.recessed installation
7.1Mark the position of the lintel so that it sits centrally over the intended installation. Remove the blockwork and install the lintel using mortar to ensure a strong bond with the surrounding wall, Diagram 5.

7.2With the lintel in position mark the width of the aperture and remove the blockwork. If there is loose cavity insulation this must be retained. This can be achieved by using Rockwool or similar, Diagram 5.
7.3Mark the position of the flue on the wall by measuring from the top of the finished hearth level, Diagram 6.

7.4A 152mm (6’) diameter hole is required to install the flue. This can be achieved by either:
a)Core drill
b)Hammer and chisel
It is advisable to drill small holes around the circumference when using method b. Make good both ends of the hole.
8. Installation of the appliance
8.1The flue can be cut to length, measure the thickness of the wall the flue is passing through, then deduct 12mm. This is the length required when measuring from the line on the flue label. This must be level with the outside wall face when fitted, Diagram 7.

8.2There is a cardboard fitment in the terminal. This is to support the flue whilst it is cut to length. REMOVE THE
REMAINDER OF THE CARDBOARD AFTER CUTTING TO SIZE
•Remove the compression elbow from the appliance and connect it to the gas supply pipe, taking note of its orientation
•Attach the flue to the appliance and seal using the aluminium tape provided
8.3As the appliance is positioned into the opening of the enclosure, pass the flue pipe through the hole in the wall. It will be necessary to pass the supply pipe with the elbow through the silicone panel on the right hand side of the box.
•Secure the appliance in place using screws and rawl plugs provided
•PURGE THE SUPPLY PIPE. This is essential to expel any debris that may block the gas controls. Connect the elbow to the appliance inlet pipe.
8.4• Connect a suitable pressure gauge to the test point located on the inlet elbow and turn the gas on
•Light the appliance and check for leaks
•Turn the appliance to maximum and check that the supply pressure is as stated on the databadge
•Turn the gas supply off and replace the test point screw
•Turn the gas on and check the test point for leaks
