Clearances
The appliance must not be installed where curtains or other combustible materials could
come into contact with the heater. In some case curtains may need restraining. The clearances
listed below are minimum clearances unless otherwise stated.
Clearances
The side and vertical clearances are
measured from the edge of the
frame.
The 180 mm side clearance
includes side walls.
Wall surface above the heater
The temperature of the wall
surface directly above the
appliance may be elevated, and
may discolour paint finishes or
distort vinyl wall coverings. For
durability of surfaces, please
contact the manufacturer for their
specification.
Floor protection
Heat emanating from this fire may
over time affect the appearance of
some materials used for flooring,
such as, carpet, vinyl, cork or
timber. This may be amplified if
the air contains cooking vapours
or cigarette smoke. To avoid this
occurring, it is recommended that
a mat be placed in front of this
appliance.
Mantels and surrounds
A mantel and surround are
allowed providing they are outside
the minimum clearances shown.
Hearths
A hearth is not necessary but can
be used for decorative purposes
or protection of sensitive flooring
if required. A hearth must not
obscure the front of the fire.
