Location of the Pellet Fire
Installation of the Ecoteck Monica Plus Freestanding Wood Pellet Burning Heater should
be undertaken by an experienced installer. Please read the Monica Plus Owners/Technical
Manual thoroughly before commencing installation as failure to follow the instruction could
cause damage to the pellet re or property.
Positioning the re:
Generally Monica Plus should be installed in a centrally located position within the home. When
deciding where to position the appliance in your room you need to consider the following:
Location of a power source
• Monica Plus has a convection fan which blows air through tubes in the direction that
the re faces, for optimum performance this location should be in a large room centrally
located.
• Monica Plus must be installed on a non-combustible surface. This surface must protrude
150mm from the front of the closed pellet re door.
• Monica Plus has been Safety Tested to AS/NZS 2918 using the Davins manufactured
ue. Test Report ARS 05/1185. Installation is not exclusive to these nominated kits,
though alternative ue should only be considered following consultation with your local
council.
• Please consult pages 2 & 3 for the required clearances to combustible material also
ensure the position of structural elements near the proposed ue.
• Because of the positive pressure in the ue, sealing of all 75mm stainless joints is
mandatory – use high temperature Maniseal. Both inner and outer ue joints must be
riveted.
• Seismic Restraint: Please view page 6 for requirements.
• Warranty: To validate warranty following installation a copy of the completed Warranty/
Producers Statement must be forwarded to: Nature’s Flame- Fax (03) 348 1743.
