Minimum room size and ventilation requirements
This firegrate must not be installed or operated within a room having a volume of less than: 70
cubic metres (approx 2500 ft
3
). To determine the volume of a room, measure the length, width
and height of the room with a tape measure. Multiply the width by the length and then by the
height. This value will be the room volume.
For example: (metric)
Room dimensions
Height 2.4 metres
Length: 7.0 metres
Width: 5.0 metres
or (imperial)
Room dimensions
Height 8 ft
Length: 24 ft
Width: 16 ft
Room ventilation requirements
The space or room this firegrate is installed
must have an adequate supply of fresh air

unventilated basement or air tight sealed
room.

Side:
450mm / 18”
Top:
1000mm / 40”
In all situations, the firegrate must be installed
on a non combustible material (Masonary,
