1.Introduction

Note: these instructions should be read carefully and retained for future reference.

Please leave these instructions with the user.

•BF110V / Straight with frame and log burner;

•BF110V / Straight with frame and pebble burner;

•BF120H/Relaxed frameless with flat fibre burner and logset;

•BF120H/Rlaxed frameless with pebble burner;

•BF120H/Relaxed with frame and flat fibre burner and logset;

- A specially designed Faber prefab false chimney breast is optional (only for the

frameless versions of the Natural Fires);

- Realistic flame and glow effect because of the "Log burner" technology;

- Room sealed appliance, inlet and outlet are led to the outside using a natural draught

concentric pipe system (100 mm/150 mm). No additional ventilation required;

- Air supply and flue-gases go to outside atmosphere through wall or roof. A maximum

horizontal extension of 6 meters is possible;

- Remote Control option on all appliances;

- Meets the essential requirements of the European Gas Appliance Directive (GAD) and

carries the CE mark according the NEN 613 standard.

2.Safety instructions

Before installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions (identification of the type

of gas and pressure) and the adjustment of the appliance are compatible. This information

can be found on the data plate. This gas appliance is factory set and shall not be adjusted.

This appliance does not contain any component manufactured from asbestos or any asbestos

related products.

The pilot and flame sensing device fitted to this fire is also a safety device. If for any

reason any part of the pilot assembly is to be replaced, the entire assembly, including the

pilot burner, thermocouple, electrode and injector, must be exchanged complete for a pilot

assembly from the original manufacturer only.

Do not put extra (glow-)elements in the combustion chamber. This could affect the burning

process in a negative way.

This appliance is room-sealed and doesn't require purpose provided ventilation.

It is the law in the UK that all gas appliances are installed and checked by a competent

person in accordance with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations (as amended),

the relevant British Standards for Installation work, Building Regulations, Codes of Practice,

and the manufacturer’s instructions.

The installation should also be carried out in accordance with the following where relevant:

•British Standards: BS5871 Part1, BS5440 Parts 1 & 2 and BS1251;

•Building Regulations Document J (as applicable);

•Building Regulations and Standards issued as relevant by the Department of the

Environment or the Scottish Development Department.

In the Republic of Ireland installation should be carried out in accordance with IS813, ICP3,

IS327, Building Regulations, Codes of Practice, the manufacturer’s instructions and any

other rules in force.

Failure to comply with the above could leave the installer liable to prosecution and

invalidate the appliance warranty.

The construction of the fire place is not to be altered.

Safety instructions for the user can be found in chapter 9.

3.Installation requirements

Note: Since the appliance is a source of heat, circulation of air occurs. Therefore it is of

importance that you do not use the appliance shortly after a renovation of the home. Because

of the natural circulation of air, moist and volatile components from paint, building materials,

carpet etc. will be attracted. These components can settle themselves down onto cold

surfaces in the form of soot.

As on all heat producing appliances, soft furnishings such as blown vinyl wallpaper placed too

near to the appliance may become scorched or discoloured. This should be born in mind

when installing the appliance.

3.1 Builders opening and surround

Both the BF110V/Straight frameless and the BF110V/Straight frameless can be build in an

optional Faber prefab false chimney breast made of promatec. This false chimney breast is

specially designed to accommodate this type (NOT for the models with frame) and is

applicable for ceiling heights up to 2,9m. It consists of a base part and either a top part

made of promatec or an ornamental flue pipe made of stainless steel.

The fire place can also be build in a non-combustible fire place or builders opening. This

could be either an existing builders opening or a new made prefab builders opening. For the

measurements, see paragraph 3.2.

When you apply your own false chimney breast design to all models of the BF110V/Straight

or BF120H/Relaxed, you have to meet these general requirements:

•The false chimney breast has to be made of inflamable material;

•The minimum inner width of the false chimney breast has to be at least 976mm (see

paragraph 3.2) and is secured by the floor plate;

•Minimum distance from the back of the appliance to the wall has to be 10mm;

•Always install the fire place first, before building up the false chimney breast;

•Always ventilate the space above the appliance using vents to assure a good air-

circulation;

•If the appliance is to be fitted against a wall with combustible cladding, the cladding

must be removed from the area covered by the surround;

•The plaster of the outside has to be resistant to a high temperature. Therefore use the

UK/IRL

8< < <<

plaster materials especially made for this, to prevent discoloring (min. 100 °C

temperature resistant);

•Make sure the plaster dries well before using the appliance. Let the thickness in mm

be the number of days the plaster has to dry, e.g. 3 mm plaster has to dry for 3 days.

•Although the appliance is tested for installation without a hearth, the appliance must

not stand on combustible materials or carpets. If the appliance is placed on a

combustible floor first place a fibrelux or similar heatproof board of 12 mm thickness.

Any under floor vents or openings within the builders opening should be sealed off;

•If the floor will be adjusted (e.g. by applying carpet or parquet), the floor under the

false chimney breast has to be adjusted to match the future floor height;

•Do not place any material directly onto the appliance. If possible, apply a lintel made

of cement or something similar;

•Make sure that both the gas control block and the main gas valve are easy accessable

at all times and can be operated if necessary.

Specific requirements for making a false chimney breast for the BF110V / Straight

frameless:

•The front opening of the false chimney breast has to be at least 460mm wide and

1100mm high, measured from the underside of the floor plate;

•Minimum distance from the glass to any of the construction parts of the false chimney

breast should be at least 12 mm. This is the minimum distance with which the glass

can still be taken out;

•When using a material thicker than 12mm, e.g. 50mm thick stony material, the floor

plate has to be adjusted according to the indicated pattern (see paragraph 3.2 for

construction details and dimensions);

Specific requirements for a false chimney breast for the BF110V / Straight with frame:

•The wall opening has to be 620x1100 mm. This is smaller than the appliance!!!

•The gas control block can be mounted on either the left or right side of the floor plate,

depending on which side makes it easier to acces it.

Specific requirements for a false chimney breast for the BF120H / RELAXED frameless:

•The (wall) opening has to be 1050x425 mm. This is smaller than the appliance;

•The (wall) opening depth is 50 mm. The distance between the opening and the glass

should be at least 12 mm. This is measured after finishing!

UK/IRL

>>>>9

•Use 12 mm Promatec for the front of the false chimney breast. Building up the false

chimney breast with e.g. Ytong blocks is not possible;

•The gas block is normally mounted on the right side of the appliance but can be place

elsewhere, thanks to a 1.2 m flexible gas line;

•Make sure the that the top ridge of the (wall) opening is left out! (see drawings in

§3.2). This is necessary to be able to remove the glass and assure a good air

circulation!
