Installation instructions
The Real Fires SS900 unfl ued Gas Fire is designed to be installed in sheltered outdoor situations. Exposed loca-
tions are not suitable. The location must not be enclosed or semi enclosed by any form of roofi ng. This is to
allow the gas combustion products to safely escape to atmosphere. As this model is unfl ued the wall area above
the fi re will discolour. In many situations the discolouration can add to the ambience and realistic e ect of an open
fi re. If discolouration is not desired, the fl ued version of the outdoor fi re should be considered. (See installation
instructions Real Fires SS900 Flued Outdoor Gas Fire).
Location
Typical installation is into concrete blockwork. A cavity for the fi rebox is required in the blockwork measuring
640mm high 400mm deep and 920mm wide. See installation drawings. If a hearth is required in front of the fi re,
the hearth height needs to be considered. A hearth 100mm from fl oor level would normally mean the base of the
fi rebox cavity would also be constructed 100mm from fl oor level note-some elevated installations specify the fi re
higher than the hearth.
Typical Installation.
A hearth will be required in front of the fi re if the fl oor is a combustible material such as timber decking. The mini-
mum hearth size is 300mm out from the fi re and 150mm each side wider than the fi re. ( 300mm x 1200mm)
Hearth
The Real Fires SS900 unfl ued outdoor Gas Fire is suitable for installation into masonry only. This model removes the
need for a fl ue system, however there are important considerations to be made prior to installation.
A suitable gas supply is required to supply the megajoule rating of the fi re. The Gas supply pipe should be reduced
to 10mm copper at the fi replace location and positioned with approx 1metre coil of pipe at the rear right hand side
of the cavity when facing the cavity.
