Introduction 

This heater has been designed for fitting in the space behind the plinth of floor standing kitchen units or other fitted furniture 
units.  It is recommended that the heater is not installed under cupboards used for storing perishable goods.  It can be 
accommodated in plinths with a minimum height of 120mm, and is suitable for cupboards of 500mm width and above. 
 

 

Installation 

The installation of this appliance should be carried out by a competent electrician and be in accordance with the current IEE 
wiring regulations. 

Before undertaking installation work, ensure the electricity supply is disconnected from any relevant fixed wiring.

 

 

The heater is more easily fitted during the installation of new furniture units, or on existing furniture units if they can be 
temporarily moved from their position against the wall.  If an existing furniture unit cannot be moved, then it may be 
necessary to remove the back of the unit in order to gain access to carry out the wiring installation. 
Before installing the unit consider the location with respect to the following; 

 

The electrical supply and cable length. 

 

Position heater to deliver heat effectively without causing personal discomfort from overheating while standing at 
work surfaces etc. 

        Minimum plinth height of 120mm and minimum furniture unit width of 500mm. 

 

 

Procedure 

 

1.  Cutting the aperture in the Plinth

  

Cut aperture in furniture unit plinth to 
dimensions shown.

 

    This  must  be 

positioned so that the minimum distance 
from the bottom of the aperture to the 
TOP surface of any floor covering is not 
less than 12mm and not more than 
25mm. 
 
If an overhang above the heater is greater 
than 75mm, then a distance of at least 
100mm must be maintained between the 
overhang and the uppermost part of the 
heater. 

Note: 

If fitted in corner with adjacent 

cupboards to left hand side of heater then 
a distance of at least 150mm must be 
maintained between the left hand end of 
the heater and the front of the adjacent 
cupboard door. 
 
*This dimension must be maintained 
above the top surface of any floor 
covering material.  All dimensions in 
millimetres.
