in writing, from Hepworth Heating Ltd.

Any alteration that is not approved by Hepworth Heating Ltd., could invalidate the certification, the warranty and could infringe the

statutory requirements.

CE Mark

The CE mark on this appliance shows compliance with:

1. Directive 90/396/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to appliances burning gaseous fuels.

2. Directive 89/336/EEC on the approximation of the Laws of the Member States relating to electromagnetic compatibility.

INFORMATION FOR THE INSTALLER AND SERVICE ENGINEER.

Under Section 6 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, we are required to provide information on substances hazardous to

health.

The Adhesives and sealants used in this appliance are cured and give no known hazard in this state.

REFRACTORY CERAMIC FIBRE

This product uses fuel effect Pieces containing Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF), which are man-made vitreous silicate fibres.

Excessive exposure to these materials may cause temporary irritation to eyes, skin and respiratory tract, consequently, it makes

sense to take care when handling these articles to ensure that the release of dust is kept to a minimum.

To ensure that the release of fibres from these RCF articles is kept to a minimum, during installation and servicing we recommend

that you use a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove any dust and soot accumulated in and around the fire before and after working on

the fire. When replacing these articles we recommend that the replaced items are not broken up, but are sealed within heavy duty

polythene bags, clearly labelled as RCF waste. This is not classified as “hazardous waste” and may be disposed of at a tipping site

licensed for the disposal of industrial waste. Protective clothing is not required when handling these articles, but we recommend

you follow the normal hygiene rules of not smoking, eating or drinking in the work area and always wash your hands before eating

or drinking.

INSULATION and SEALS

Ceramic fibre and glass fibre used in insulation panels rope and gaskets.

These can cause irritation to skin, eyes and the respiratory tract.

If you have a history of skin complaint you may be susceptible to irritation. High dust levels are usual only if the material is broken.

Normal handling should not cause discomfort, but follow normal good hygiene and wash your hands before eating, drinking or going

to the lavatory.

If you do suffer irritation to the eyes or severe irritation to the skin seek medical attention.

Cleaning your Fire

WARNING. This fire contains metal parts (components) and

care should be taken when handling and cleaning, with particular

regard to edges.

Any cleaning must only be done when the fire is cold.

If large pieces of debris are found the flue should be inspected

and the fire serviced before further use.

Under normal conditions dusting the surrounds of the fire

should be enough. An occasional wipe over with a damp cloth

will help to remove any marks.

Do not use an abrasive cleaning powder or liquid.

To Clean the Fuel and Supports - this can be

done by the User

Should any soot accumulation become excessive, the fuel

effect pieces should be removed from the fire for cleaning.

Cleaning should be carried out in a well ventilated area or in the

open air, by gently brushing with the pieces held away from your

face so that you avoid inhaling the dust. We do not recommend

the use of a normal domestic vacuum cleaner, which may blow

dust back into the air.

2.1 Terminal Position

The minimum acceptable siting dimensions for the terminal

from obstruction, other terminals and ventilation openings are

shown in diagram 2.1.

The terminal must be in a position where it will be exposed to the

external air, allowing free passage of air across it at all times.

Car ports or similar extensions of a roof only, or a roof and one

wall, require special consideration with respect to any openings,

doors, vents or windows under the roof. Care is required to

protect the roof if it is made of plastic sheeting. If the car port

consists of a roof and two or more walls, seek advice from the

local gas company before installing the fire.

If the terminal is fitted within 600mm below plastic guttering or

painted soffit an aluminium shield 1500mm long should be fitted

immediately beneath the guttering or eaves. If the terminal is

fitted within 450mm below painted eaves or a painted gutter, an

aluminium shield 750mm long should be fitted immediately

beneath the guttering or eaves.

2.2 Terminal Guard

The terminal guard is required for all installations.

2.3 Hearth Fixing

In ALL cases a fireproof hearth to the minimum dimensions as

shown in diagram 2.2 must be fitted.

2.4 Installation

There are two methods of installing the fire.

For fireplaces where the wall is not plastered and not covered

by BS1251 it is important that such installations comply with the

current issue of The Building Regulations.

Any combustible material, for example, blown vinyl wall

coverings, on the fire fixing face area of the surround must be

removed, see diagram 2.3.

Method 1

Refer to diagram 2.4.

This requires the construction of an extended fire surround or a

false chimney breast. The advantage of this method is that it

requires least disruption to the cavity wall.

Note: When constructing the fire surround or chimney breast,

any combustible material must be no less than 75mm from the

appliance, unless protected by 25mm of insulation.

2 Preparation & Flue Installation

Method 2

Refer to diagram 2.4.

This allows for the fire to be installed in the inner skin of the

cavity wall.

Note: The back of the fire or the insulation blanket must not

intrude into the cavity space.

It requires the extraction of a section of the inner cavity wall.

Care should be taken when undertaking this work, as there may

be cavity wall insulation present. Some insulation is of a

granular nature, resulting in a considerable loss of it, should

precautions not be taken.

Mark out the area required either side of the centre line. This

should just be enough to allow the fire to fit in easily, see

diagram 2.3.

Important: The opening can be cut to the minimum dimensions,

only if no combustible material is within 75mm of the fire. Only

in this case may the insulation blanket on top of the fire be

removed to enable the fire to fit in.

Remove the required section and strengthen with a suitable

lintel (if necessary) over the opening.

The cavity space of both sides and the top must be closed with

a non-combustible material.

2.5 Timber Frame Building

The two installation methods as described may be used to

install the appliance in a timber framed building provided

adequate protection to combustible material is made.

It should be fitted in accordance with the Institute of Gas

Engineers document IGE/UP/7/1998. If in doubt seek advice

from the local gas undertaking or Hepworth Heating Ltd.

Method 1

The flue opening through the timber section of the wall will need

to have a non-combustible lining of at least 200mm minimum

outside diameter (supplied with the fire) projecting no more than

10mm into the cavity of the wall, see diagram 2.5.

Note: If both inner and outer leafs are constructed of timber, the

non-combustible flue liner will need to extend the full width of the

wall.

Refer to Section 2.6 for marking out and positioning of fire, flue

and flue terminal.

Note: Before this work is carried out, consideration should be

given to the position of the timber studding, as this could involve

extra work in removing studwork and if necessary, strengthening

the remainder.

Using a suitable drill or brace and bit, make a pilot hole, at the

center of the marked out flue orifice, through the timber

construction, changing to a drill and masonary bit to continue

though the outer brick leaf of the wall.

Carefully cut out and remove the plasterboard of the marked out

circle with a suitable craft knife.

If there is a vapour barrier behind the plasterboard, this should

be cut out approx. 10 to 20 mm less than the diameter of the flue

liner.

Remove any insulation material and using the liner as a template,

mark out on the inner timber sheathing, the circumference of the

liner.

Some insulation is of a granular nature, resulting in a considerable

loss of it, should precautions not be taken.

With brace and bit, make several holes around the circumference

and using a suitable narrow bladed saw, cut out the hole.

On the outside wall, finish making the flue orifice, using a

suitable core drill, to receive the 101mm diameter flue.

Insert the flue liner into the inner wall leaf making sure it does

not intrude more than 10mm into the cavity space, and mark it

12mm from the plasterboard to allow for the insulation board,

cut to size.

Seal inner and outer edges of the flue liner with a non-setting

thermal mastic.

An insulation board measuring 780mm x 690mm x 12mm will

have to be fitted to the inner wall with a hole cut to accommodate

the flue liner, see diagram 2.5.

Secure fire insulation board to wall.

If in doubt advice must be sought from the local gas undertaking

or Hepworth Heating Ltd.

2 Preparation & Flue Installation

Method 2

Should Method 2 be used, which requires the removal of a

section of the inner timber leaf of the wall, care should be taken

as not to weaken the structure. If any part of the vertical

studwork has to be removed, the remaining part of the studwork

should be supported by fitting a cross member above the

proposed opening.

Note: The back of the fire or the insulation blanket must not

intrude into the cavity space.

Care should be taken when undertaking this work, as there may

be cavity wall insulation present. Some insulation is of a

granular nature, resulting in a considerable loss of it, should

precautions not be taken.

Refer to Section 2.6 for marking out and positioning of fire, flue

and flue terminal.

Where combustible material is near to the fire, an air gap of

25mm minimum must be maintained all round the insulation

blanket

Mark out the area required either side of the centre line.

Note: Allow for the thickness of the fire insulation blanket and air

gap when undertaking this work.

Cut out and remove the required section and strengthen (if

necessary).

The cavity space of both sides and the top must be closed with

a non-combustible material.

The finished opening will also need to be lined with suitable

insulation to protect inner leaf of wall from the heat of the

appliance.

Note: The non-combustible flue liner is not required if Method 2

is used, unless the outer wall leaf is of timber construction.

An insulation board measuring 780mm x 690mm x 12mm will

have to be fitted to the inner wall with a opening cut to

accommodate the fire assembly.

Secure fire insulation board to wall.

If in doubt advice must be sought from the local gas undertaking

or Hepworth Heating Ltd.

Note: If timber framed building, refer back to Section 2.5.

Using a suitable core drill cut the flue hole horizontal to the

diameter shown in diagram 2.3.

Should installation Method 2 be adopted, the removal of inner

cavity leaf should be carried out at this stage.

Note: Remove any brick debris and cavity insulation if necessary.

Remove power flue terminal from its packing.

Remove the securing screws and take off flue hood, see

diagram 2.6.

Undo the three nuts holding fan assembly to wall plate, see

diagram 2.7, and remove.

Fit the insulation jacket to the back of the appliance with the tape

provided, see diagram 2.9.

Attach flue to flue manifold adaptor at the rear of the fire.

Place the fire in position, inserting the flue in the hole already

prepared.

Note: If a spacer is to be used, place this in position, see

diagram 3.6.

Go outside the building and mark the flue at a point flush with the

wall.

Remove the fire with flue and cut the flue 8mm shorter than the

mark.
