The following instructions are for installation into timber frame. The method of installation is the same for
New Masonry Block. See Masonry Block Drawing
New Masonry Block
Prior to installation, timber framing needs to be provided to suit the selected Real Fire. See installation drawing
Framing Details
A non combustible Hearth must be provided in front of the Real Fire unless the flooring in front of the fire is non
combustible. The minimum size is 300mm out from the fire and 150mm each side wider than the fire.
Hearth
It is important to confirm the height the fire is to be installed from the floor level. This is usually the hearth height.
For example if the hearth is 100mm high then the fire needs to be installed 100mm high. (note - some elevated
installations specify the fire higher than the hearth). Once the height is confirmed a platform needs to be built to
support the firebox. The platform can be of timber construction. It needs to be sturdy and level.
