All brick flues or any flue previously used with

solid fuel or gas appliances must be left with the

appropriate debris collection volume below the flue

spigot of the stove of 12 litres minimum, and depth of

250 mm minimum below the spigot as shown in fig. 9.

Block, clay, cement or steel lined (connected to the top

of the appliance opening) flues either new or previ-

ously used with GAS appliances may have the smaller

debris collection volume of 2 litres minimum and

depth of 75 mm minimum below the flue spigot.

Make sure that there will be at least 50 mm clear-

ance between the end of the spigot and knee of the

fireback for flue gases. Also make sure that the spigot

will pass through the closure plate by a minimum of

15 mm. It can be extended by up to 150 mm (6”) to

ensure this requirement is met using a purpose-made

extension or suitable piece of flue pipe. Cut a closure

plate from sheet aluminum or steel to just cover the

appliance opening to be used. It is also possible to use

other fireproof materials providing they are properly

supported and sealed and can be removed annually

for inspection and clearing of the flue. Cut a spigot

hole as shown in the fig. 9. Fix the closure plate to the

wall or appliance and seal it correctly to the wall. The

plate must be sealed correctly to the wall using adhe-

sive sealant, screws and/or tape able to withstand at

least 3 degrees C. The appliance will not work correctly

and may cut out repeatedly if the sealing of the appli-

ance and flue is not correct.

Remember, if the closure plate extends beyond

the sides or top of the stove, a non-combustible

decorative panel can be fitted to cover the area. The

closure plate can then be fitted to this. Marble in-fill

panels are a common example. Install the appliance

and connect to the gas supply and carry out a smoke

test on the flue as described in the relevant section of

this manual.

Assembly Prior To Installation

The product is delivered in 1 package. In the firebox you

will find the propane fuel conversion kit, four decora-

tive pipe brackets, and a log set that includes a bag of

textured embers.

1. Remove the Top Plate of the stove by simply lifting it

straight off of the stove body.

2. To open the firebox, disengage the two Glass Frame

Latches located on top of the firebox. Pull each handle

forward to clear the latch from the notch in the frame.

See fig. 10.

3. Remove the parts wrapped in packaging. Use gloves

to handle the ceramic logs, as they can cause skin ir-

ritation.

4. Familiarize yourself with the installation require-

ments specified in this manual, before beginning the

installation. If the product is going to be used with

Propane G31 rather than G20 natural gas, it should be

converted now. See the instructions supplied with the

conversion kit.

Minimum Clearances from Combustible

Material to the Vent System

All pipe components must be installed according to ap-

proval and the instructions of the manufacturer. Adhere

to the instructions of the manufacturer as regards clear-

ance from to the vent system to combustible material.

When moving the chimney the clearance from

combustible material to the upper side of horizontal

pipe must be minimum 100 mm. The clearance from the

bottom of the vent pipe to combustible material must be

minimum 75 mm.

Ventilation

For UK installation, please comply with BS 5440-2 which

states that for every 1 kW above 7 kW gas input, there

must be 5 cm

of additional purpose provided ventilation.

For example: if the input is 8.7 kW (see stove data

badge) this requires 1.7 kW x 5 cm

= 8.5 cm

of perma-

nent ventilation.

For other countries, please consult local regulations

and standards.
