Graph 1 Shelf clearances
DO
• Have the fire installed by a competent person. In the United Kingdom, installation
must be in accordance with the latest edition of the Gas Safety (installation & use)
Regulations. In the Republic of Ireland, installation must be in accordance with all
national and local regulations in force.
• Have the chimney swept prior to installation if it was previously used for solid fuel.
• Have the fire installed in accordance with the installation instructions
• Allow a minimum clearance of 90mm from the top of the appliance case to the
underside of any shelf whether it is made from combustible or non-combustible
materials. This clearance is necessary to allow the case to be lifted off for servicing and
also allows
sufficient
access to
operate the
control
knob. For a
shelf made
from wood
or other
combustible
materials
deeper than
150mm the
minimum
clearance
must be as
shown in
graph 1.
Please bear
this in mind
if ever you add a shelf.
• Provide a suitable guard that complies with BS 6539 or 6778 for the protection of
young children, the elderly and the infirm. Such a guard is also recommended for the
protection of pet animals. (Although this fire conforms to all the applicable standards, it
is a heating appliance and certain parts of its surface will become hot.)
Note: The guard supplied with the fire acts as a fireguard conforming to BS1945:1971
and satisfies the Heating Appliance (Fireguard) (Safety) Regulations 1991.
