open end and the nearest obstruction.
There must also be a minimum clearance of 165mm between the back of the closure
plate and the back of the catchment space.
On conventional flues the catchment space below the flue spigot must extend at least
250mm downward measured from the bottom of the flue spigot (See figure 2).
4.15 The front of the fireplace should be flat over an area sufficient to ensure a good
seal with the closure plate. The flat surface should extend for a height equal to that of
the closure plate plus 20mm and for a width equal to that of the closure plate plus
40mm.
4.16 If the fire is to be fitted against a
wall with combustible cladding, the
cladding must be removed from the area
shown in figure 3.
4.17 The space between the fireplace
front face and the back of the fascia
must not be filled in.
4.18 If the fireplace opening is greater
than the acceptable dimensions given
in this guide, do not use the back of a
fire surround or marble to reduce the
opening. This may cause cracking of
the surround back or marble.
