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 8423 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.
