5.4 Fitting the closure plate.
(See figure 8).
The closure plate has an opening at the
bottom for a central gas feed pipe. The gap
between the pipe and this opening should
be sealed with tape after connection. If a
central feed pipe is not required the
opening should be completely sealed with
tape.
5.4.1
Hearth mounting
(See figure 9).
The closure plate must be fitted and sealed
to the hearth and fireplace opening using a
suitable heat resistant material. If
necessary cut the closure plate but make
sure that it overlaps the fireplace opening
sufficiently to allow satisfactory sealing.
5.4.2
Wall mounting
(See figure 10).
The closure plate must be fitted and sealed to
the hearth and fireplace opening using a
suitable heat resistant material
.
If necessary cut the closure plate but make
sure that it overlaps the fireplace opening
sufficiently to allow satisfactory sealing.
The bottom of the appliance must be at least
100mm above any carpet or other floor
covering. To achieve this, the bottom of the
flue spigot opening must be at least 565mm
above the finished floor covering.
5.4.3
Check the flue pull with closure plate
fitted by applying a lighted match or smoke
match to the flue spigot opening in the
closure plate and observe the smoke. If there
is a definite flow continue with the
installation. If not check the fitting of the
closure plate. The fireplace flue pull check
described in section 5.2 should have confirmed that the fireplace itself is satisfactory.
