INSTAllATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTAllATION
6.6 The 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 50cm
2
. 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
7.1 Mark 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.

7.2 With 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.
7.3 Mark the position of the flue on the wall by measuring from
the top of the finished hearth level, Diagram 6.

7.4 A 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
8.1 The 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.

• 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
8.3 As 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
