INSTALLING THE FLUE 

 

The flue system used when installing the open fireplace MUST 
comply with the current installation standard AS/NZS 2918. 

Full instructions on the installation of the flue will be supplied 
with the flue kit. These MUST be adhered to, including the 
minimum exit height from the top of the floor protector being 
not less than 4.6m, and the minimum exit height above the 
roof line of roof ridge as detailed in the AS/NZS 2918.

 

The flue kit is supplied with the built-in open fireplace. Note 
that this flue kit is different to the one supplied with the 
freestanding model of N900. They are not interchangeable. 

The Built-in flue kit consists of: 

 

5 x 900mm lengths of 8 inch stainless steel active flue 

 

1 x 900mm length of 10 inch, slotted stainless steel 
inner casing 

 

4 x 900mm lengths of 10 inch stainless steel inner 
casing 

 

1 x 900mm length of 12 inch, slotted galvanised steel 
outer casing 

 

4 x 900mm lengths of 12 inch galvanised steel outer 
casing 

 

1 x stainless steel flue cowl for 8 inch flue 

 

1 x angle support brackets 

 

1)

 

Installing 8 inch active flue – the first length of 8 inch 
stainless steel flue inserted into the spigot of the 
appliance can be differentiated by the other lengths by a 
larger crimp and swage at one end. Install the remaining 
lengths of 8 inch flue as normal. 

2)

 

10 inch slotted inner casing – the first length of inner 
casing, resting on top of the appliance, is the slotted 
length, installed with the ventilation slots at the bottom. 
Install the remaining inner casing as normal. 

3)

 

12 inch slotted outer casing – the first length of outer 
casing, resting on top of the appliance, is the slotted 
length, installed with the ventilation slots at the bottom. 
Install the remaining outer casing as normal. 

 

All other aspects of the flue kit must be installed in 

accordance with AS/NZS 2918. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.6.

 

FITTING RECEIVER FOR REMOTE CONTROL 

 

The receiver for the remote control will be supplied packaged 
inside the firebox.  

 

Remove the packaging. 

 

On the rear of the appliance is a bracket protruding from 
the centre of the rear surface. 

 

Connect the two plugs from the receiver to the two plugs 
on the rear of the appliance. 

 

Locate and insert the tab on the fan receiver assembly in 
the slot at the bottom of the protruding bracket. 

 

Insert the supplied M6 screw through the hole in the top 
of the receiver assembly, thread the spacers over the 
screw, and then fasten the screw to the nutsert at the 
top of the bracket. Tighten until firm. 

 

 

 

3.7.

 

POWER SUPPLY FOR FAN 

 

It may be desirable to provide a power point in the cavity 
under the heater for connecting the fan in the heater. If the 
cavity under the heater will not be accessible once the heater 
is installed (such as through a removable vent) then ensure an 
extension cord long enough to reach out of the front of the 
opening is lying in the base of the cavity. 

When connecting the lead from the fan to the extension cord, 
it  is  suggested  to  tape  the  connection  together.  This  is  to 
prevent  separation  if  the  remote  receiver  or  fan  requires 
removal and the lead needs to be pulled through.
