INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARATION BEFORE INSTALLATION
Tools
A screwdriver, a spirit level and drill will be needed.
Appliance Location
Your new electric fireplace may be installed virtually anywhere in your home.
However, when choosing a location, ensure that the general instructions are
followed:
• For best result, install out of direct sunlight, water or very damp air.
• The appliance should be connected to an earthed electrical outlet and it
must be easily accessible to allow disconnection.
The following is only given as a general guide because it can be installed in
different ways.
Provided you ensure electric connections are safely made in accordance with
the codes, various materials can be used for the framework and cladding.
Ensure the framing and wall finish are self-supporting and do not rely on the
appliance to support framing or wall finish. Consideration should be made
to soften the internal surface of any cladding to minimize that amplification
of noise.
