INSTALLATION
-
INSERT HEATERS ONLY
WARNING: This appliance and flue MUST be installed in a full masonry fireplace, and must
be installed by a qualified wood heater installer according to the latest version of AS2918.
FIREPLACE CONSTRUCTION
This wood heater must be installed in a full
masonry fireplace, which has been carefully
inspected for cracks or deterioration. The chimney
should be cleaned prior to installation.
You must install a flue the entire length of the
chimney. This will help your heater perform to its
full capabilities. It is also easier to clean.
CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
The table and diagram below shows the minimum
clearances (in millimetres) to combustible
materials.
Clearance ‘A’ is from the top of the hearth to the
underside of the combustible mantlepiece.
Clearance ‘B’ is between the combustible
surround columns.
REDUCED CLEARANCES
The ‘Clearances to Combustibles’ can be
reduced with proper heat shielding, which must
be installed in accordance with AS/NZS 2918.
HEARTH CONSTRUCTION
Do not build the hearth over the front of the heater
as this will prevent access to the fan through the
front bottom air inlet cover.
The hearth shall consist of no less than 30 mm
thick compressed fibre cement sheet with a 15
mm air gap underneath. The cement sheet shall
have a thermal conductivity not greater than 0.33
W/m°K. The air gap must provide a minimum of
3,750 mm² on each side (eg. two slots of 125 mm
x 15 mm ventilation on either side).
