Installer

Before continuing any further with the installation of this appliance please read the

following guide to manual handling.

The approximate lifting weight (kg) of this appliance is as below:

Model Hotbox and burner assembly Fascia

Brooklyn 5.7 3.2

Chic 5.7 4.1

Envy 5.7 3.11

Heritage 5.7 11.13

Luxor 5.7 12.5

Moonlight 5.7 3.2

Opulent 5.7 12.5

Westminster 5.7 8.2

Willoughby 5.7 5.3

One person should be sufficient to lift the fire. If for any reason this weight is

considered too heavy then obtain assistance.

When lifting always keep your back straight. Bend your legs and not your back.

Avoid twisting at the waist. It is better to reposition your feet.

Avoid upper body/top heavy bending. Do not lean forward or sideways whilst

handling the fire.

Always grip with the palm of the hand. Do not use the tips of fingers for support.

Always keep the fire as close to the body as possible. This will minimise the

cantilever action.

Use gloves to provide additional grip.

Always use assistance if required.

This product uses fuel effect pieces and a burner compartment rear wall

containing Refractory Ceramic Fibres (RCF), which are man-made vitreous

silicate fibres. Excessive exposure to these materials may cause irritation to

eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Consequently, it is important 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 a

heavy duty polythene bag, clearly labelled as RCF waste. RCF waste is classed

as a stable, non-reactive hazardous waste and may be disposed at a landfill

licensed to accept such 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.

This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from asbestos

or asbestos related products.

2. APPLIANCE DATA AND EFFICIENCY

2.1 General information.

* When converted using Kit 0595221

The appliance information label is located on a plate at the base of the fire. This can

be seen by removing the lower hanging trim / firefront casting.

2.2 Efficiency.

The efficiency of this appliance has been measured as specified in BS 7977 - 1 and

the result is as below :

Model Efficiency % (Gross)

954 51

954 when converted to LPG. 54

The gross calorific value of the fuel has been used for this efficiency calculation. The

test data from which it has been calculated has been certified by Advantica

Certification services (0087). The efficiency value may be used in the UK

Government's Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) for energy rating of dwellings.

down to the nearest whole number.

3. GENERAL INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

3.1 Regulations, Standards and Law.

The installation must be in accordance with these instructions.

For the user’s protection, in the United Kingdom it is the law that all gas appliances

are installed by competent persons in accordance with the current edition of the Gas

Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations. Failure to install the appliance correctly

could lead to prosecution. GAS SAFE REGISTER and CORGI require their members

to work to recognised standards.

In the United Kingdom the installation must also be in accordance with:

All the relevant parts of local regulations.

All relevant codes of practice.

The relevant parts of the current editions of the following British Standards:-

BS EN 1856 Part 1 - Chimneys - Requirements for metal chimneys.

BS 715 - Specification for metal flue boxes for gas-fired appliances not

exceeding 20kW.

BS EN 1858 - Chimneys - Components - Concrete flue blocks.

BS EN 1806 - Chimneys - Clay / ceramic flue blocks.

BS EN 1856 Part 1 - Chimneys - Requirements for metal chimneys.

BS 5440 Part 1 - Installation of flues.

BS 5440 Part 2 - Installation and maintenance of flues and ventilation for gas

appliances of rated input not exceeding 70 kW net (1st, 2nd

and 3rd family gases).

BS 6461 Part 1 - Masonry chimney & flues - Installation

BS 1251 - Fireplace components

BS 5871 Part 2 - Installation - Inset LFE gas fires

BS 6891 - Gas pipework installation

In England and Wales, the current edition of the Building Regulations issued by the

Department of the Environment and the Welsh Office.

In Scotland, the current edition of the Building Standards (Scotland) Regulations

issued by the Scottish Executive.

In Northern Ireland, the current edition of the Building regulations (Northern

Ireland) issued by the Department of the Environment for Northern Ireland.

INSTALLER GUIDE

In the Republic of Ireland the installation must be carried out by a competent

person and also conform to the relevant parts of:

a) The current edition of IS 813 “Domestic Gas Installations”

b) All relevant national and local rules in force.

Where no specific instructions are given, reference should be made to the relevant

British Standard Code of Practice.

3.2 Ventilation requirements.

Normal adventitious ventilation is usually sufficient to satisfy the ventilation

requirements of this appliance. In GB reference should be made to BS 5871 Part 2

and in IE reference should be made to the current edition of IS 813 “Domestic Gas

Installations” which makes clear the conditions that must be met to demonstrate that

sufficient ventilation is available.

3.3 The Atmosphere sensing device (ASD).

The appliance is fitted with an A.S.D (Atmosphere sensing device). If the appliance

closes down after a period of operation for no apparent reason, the consumer should

be informed to stop using the appliance until the installation and appliance have been

thoroughly checked. The A.S.D will shut the appliance down if an unacceptable

amount of harmful products of combustion accumulate. Under no circumstances

should the A.S.D be altered or bypassed in any way. Only a genuine manufacturer’s

replacement part should be fitted. The individual A.S.D components are not

replaceable.

3.4 Fireguard requirements.

A fireguard complying with BS 8423 should be fitted for the protection of young

children, the elderly, the infirm and pet animals.

3.5 Room considerations.

3.5.1 This appliance must not be installed in any room that contains a bath or shower

or where steam is regularly present.

3.5.2 An extractor fan may only be used in the same room as this appliance, or in any

area from which ventilation for the appliance is taken, if it does not affect the safe

performance of the appliance. Note the spillage test requirements detailed further on

in this manual. If the fan is likely to affect the appliance, the appliance must not be

installed unless the fan is permanently disconnected.

3.5.3 Note that soft wall coverings (e.g. embossed vinyl, etc.) are easily affected by

heat. They may scorch or become discoloured when close to a heating appliance.

Please bear this in mind when installing.
