FLOOR PROTECTION
It is recommended that the appliance is installed on

hearth conforming to the current Building
Regulations and must extend 300mm in front of the
appliance, 150mm to the sides and 50mm from the
rear.

METERS
A suitable gas meter must be connected to the ser-
vice pipe either by a representative of the gas board
or by an appointed contractor. If using an existing
meter have it checked to ensure that the meter is
capable of dealing with the total rate of gas needed.
GAS PIPE SIZE
It is important that the correct service pipe size be
used for adequate gas supply. This depends on the
distance between the supply meter and the appli-
ance relative to the input requirements. The gas
supply to the appliance should be terminated near
the appliance with an approved safety type service
tap.
GAS CONNECTION
The stove has a ø8mm gas inlet connection located
underneath the underside of the burner as shown in
Fig 3. The stove is designed to accommodate the
routing of the gas feed pipe up through the base of
the stove. If the gas feed pipe is to be routed through
the back of the stove, a suitably sized hole can be
drilled in the steel body (away from the combustion
chamber) to accommodate same.
Note: An isolation tap must be fitted outside of
the stove and positioned to allow for ease
of access when required.

WARNING:
Before connecting the stove make
sure the gas supply pipe is clear of grit and debris
as this will cause blockage within the stove con-
trol, pilot burner, injectors and pipework. Failure
to do so may void product warranty.
WARNING:
Only connect to gas type indicated
on the rating plate.
