Important Information
The appliance is for use on Natural Gas (G20 @ 20mbar) or Propane (G31@ 37mbar) Only.
The chimney or flue (unless new or previously used with a gas appliance) shall be swept before
installation if it has been used for solid fuel.
Failure to install appliance correctly could lead to prosecution.
In GB (Great Britain), the appliance must be installed by a competent person i.e. GAS SAFE registered, in
accordance with the GAS SAFETY (INSTALLATION AND USE) REGULATIONS, The Building Regulations (or The
Building Regulations (Scotland) or The Building Regulations (Northern Ireland)) and The Current I.E.E. Wiring
Regulations, if appropriate.
In IE (Ireland), the appliance must be installed by a competent person and installed in accordance with the
current edition of I.S.813 Domestic Gas Installation, the current Building Regulations and the current ETCI rules
for electrical installation, if appropriate.
The glass front of this fire acts as a dress guard, conforming to BS 1945 (1997) however; a fireguard
conforming to BS6539 (1997) must be used to protect young children, the elderly or infirm.
The appliance MUST NOT be used with the glass safety screen removed or if it is damaged or cracked.
During initial firing, an odour may be evident. This is the starch binder used during the manufacture of the
fibre components of the fire, and there are no harmful effects produced.
During the normal operation of the fire some black staining may appear on some parts of the fuel bed. This
is quite normal and adds to the appearance of the appliance. However, if excessive black staining does occur
it may be due to the fuel bed being incorrectly laid. This should be checked prior to contacting a service
engineer.
Care must be taken to prevent any damage being caused to surrounding soft furnishing or decoration; e.g.
many embossed vinyl wall coverings may become discoloured if placed too close to the appliance.
Combustible material i.e. wall panelling or wallpaper must be removed from behind the fire.
It is advised that this appliance is serviced annually; as it is more likely to provide trouble-free operation.
In GB (Great Britain) the fire does not normally require purpose built ventilation, but if for any special reason
purpose built ventilation is provided it should be checked periodically to ensure freedom from obstructions.
In IE (Ireland) permanent ventilation must comply with the current edition of IS813.
Distances from NON-combustible materials:
The stove can be recessed in a suitable sized non-combustible fireplace but a permanent free air gap of at
least 50mm must be left around the sides and top and at least 45mm at the back of the stove to obtain
reasonable heat output and for access to the stove for removal and maintenance. A clearance of 150mm will
give a better heat output
When installing the FIRELINE FXW/FPW Gas Stove, careful consideration should be made to the siting of the
appliance as a spillage test will need to be carried out at the Draught Diverter at the rear of the stove.
When siting into an Inglenook, consideration should be made for access to the rear of the appliance, either
from to top or sides of the stove so a spillage test can be witnessed. A small mirror may be required. PLEASE
CHECK BEFORE INSTALLING.
A minimum of 45mm needs to left between the rear of the stove(with standoff brackets fitted)
and the
closure plate or back wall for correct operation of the stove.
