IMPORTANT NNOTES

This appliance is a high efficiency, flueless catalytic flame effect gas fire. It provides radiant and convected

warmth both efficiently and safely utilising the latest type catalytic converter and burner technology. The appli-

ance does not require a flue system of any type as the catalytic converter cleans the flue products to provide a

complete combustion system, which is intrinsically safe. It is designed to operate on Natural Gas and is factory

set for operation on the gas type, and at the pressure stated on the appliance data plate.

The appliance incorporates a combustion monitoring system (Oxygen Depletion System). It must not be adjust-

ed or put out of operation. If replaced then manufacturer’s original parts must be used.

It is the LAW that all gas appliances and fittings are installed by a competent person and in accordance with the

Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, the relevant British Standards for Installation, Codes of

Practice and the Manufacturers' Instructions.

At the time of writing, CORGI registered operatives are the only class of person considered as 'competent' by

the HSE under the above regulations. The installation shall also be carried out in accordance with the following:

Failure to comply with the above could lead to prosecution and deem the manufacturer’s warranty invalid.

This appliance must be installed in accordance with the rules in force and used only in a sufficiently ventilated

space. The appliance is designed to fit various types of situations as described in sections 3.0 and 4.0. The appli-

ance must be installed in a correctly sized room (see section 3.1), and the correct purpose provided ventilation

must be provided (see section 4.1).

It should be noted that heaters create warm air currents. These currents move heat to wall surfaces next to the

heater. Installing the heater next to vinyl or cloth wall coverings or operating the heater where impurities in the

air (such as tobacco smoke, candle smoke etc.) exist, may cause the walls to become discoloured.

This appliance is intended as a secondary source of heat only and should not be used in a room without some

form of background heating present. If the appliance is used in a room as the sole source of heat, then con-

densation may occur on colder surfaces within the room.

On first light up of a new appliance, initial curing of high temperature paint and burning off of lubricants may

occur for the first few hours of operation. During this period some smoke may be emitted from the outlet grille,

this should be no cause for concern. Accordingly, the room should be well ventilated with all windows and

doors open during this period. During this period the appliance may cause smoke alarms to sound. If this hap-

pens, reset the alarms, but do not remove the batteries.

Consult ALL instructions before installation and use of this appliance. This appliance is free from any asbestos

material.

INSTALLATION RREQUIREMENTS

If the appliance is to be sited near a disused or unserviceable fireplace served by a natural draught flue then the

old flue must be sealed off. It will be necessary to ventilate the old flue to prevent condensation and dampness

forming, however any air vent used to ventilate the old flue must not be sited within 500mm of this appliance.

If the flue can be ventilated to the outside of the building then this is usually the best solution. If in doubt then

advice should be sought from a local building control officer. The appliance is designed to be wall mounted. If

the appliance is to be mounted on a newly fabricated area of wall that also serves the purpose of sealing off the

old flue then it is very important that there are no holes, gaps or otherwise in this wall that will allow draughts

from the old flue to enter the room, especially directly behind the appliance. Such draughts could affect the per-

formance of the ODS system and result in nuisance cutting out, for example. If the gas supply pipe is to enter

the appliance from the rear, i.e. emerge from the wall behind the appliance, then any hole in the wall from which

the pipe emerges must be tightly sealed.

Any existing under grate draught device should be sealed off to prevent loss of heat or creation of draughts. It

is possible to install the appliance onto certain types of combustible materials - see section entitled 'Clearances

to combustible materials'.

ROOM SSIZING

The room size should be a minimum of 23m3(e.g. 10’2” x 10’2” x 8’) to allow adequate circulation of air and

ensure the correct operation of the fire. This volume may include adjacent spaces but these spaces must not

be separated by a door. To calculate a room size in cubic metres (m3) divide the room volume in cubic feet

(ft3) by 35.3.

SITE RREQUIREMENTS

This aappliance iisddesigned ttobbewwall-hhung. DDonnot rrecess aany ppart ooftthe aappliance iinto tthe wwall.

This appliance may be installed in any room in a home, however there are exceptions, and the appliance may

not be used in bedrooms or bathrooms.

Installation in living rooms is common, however other rooms such as kitchens, dining rooms and hallways are

permitted, providing a suitable natural gas supply is available, and rooms sizing and ventilation requirements are

strictly adhered to (see section 4.1).

The appliance is designed to be versatile, and as such will operate correctly when exposed to normal gentle

draughts experienced within the home. It is not recommended, however that the appliance be installed in areas

where it is likely to be exposed to persistent strong draughts, that may be generated by outside doors, windows,

air vents, air conditioning units etc. See section 4.1 for information on positioning of air vents.

SITE RREQUIREMENTS ((continued)

Clearances ttonnon-ccombustibles

Non combustible surfaces are defined as brick, metal, marble, concrete etc. and also a number of man-made

materials impervious to flame. If in doubt refer to the material manufacturer for further information before pro-

ceeding with installation.

Clearances to the sides of the appliance are 100mm (4”). Clearance to the front of the appliance is 500mm (20”).

The back of the appliance may be installed directly onto a non-combustible wall, providing the area behind the

appliance is flat and does not interfere with the various vent holes in the back panel of the appliance.

A non combustible shelf of any depth may be positioned above the appliance provided it is no closer than

400mm from the top of the appliance glass panel and the wall above the appliance is non combustible.

The appliance must not be positioned vertically within 60mm ( 2.4”) of a solid floor (i.e. wood or stone) or

hearth. This dimension is measured vertically to the bottom of the appliance firebox.

Clearances ttoccombustible mmaterials

Combustible materials are defined as wood, fabrics, or other materials likely to combust if exposed to flame.

Generally, any material, which is likely to discolour, melt or misshape when exposed to moderate heat, should

be considered as a combustible material or surface.

Clearance to the sides of the appliance are 100mm (4”) but curtains, drapes and other fabrics are not permitted

within a distance of 500mm(20in) of the appliance sides. No such materials are permitted directly above the

appliance regardless of distance.

The minimum clearance to the ceiling above the appliance is 800mm (31.5”) measured from the top of the appli-

ance glass panel.

Combustible materials should not be positioned directly in front of the appliance within a distance of one metre.

Under no circumstances should any electrical equipment e.g. plasma screen TV sets etc. be positioned on the

wall above the appliance. The appliance is designed to be wall mounted alone and not in conjunction with any

type of combustible fire surround. No combustible shelves should be positioned on the wall above the appli-

ance. It should be established that any mirrors or picture frames etc. to be positioned on the wall above the appli-

ance are able to withstand prolonged exposure to moderate heat and moisture before proceeding with their

installation.

The back of the appliance may be installed directly onto a combustible wall, providing it is relatively flat and does

not interfere with the various vent holes in the back panel of the appliance. The wall must be structurally sound

and constructed from a material capable of withstanding moderate heat. Brick, concrete, finished plaster, most

types of conventional wall paper and dry-lined plasterboard are examples of suitable materials. Materials such

as flock, blown vinyl and embossed paper which are sensitive to even small amounts of heat should be avoided

as scorching and or discolouration may occur over time.

If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed construction wall then the integrity and

ability of the wall to carry the weight of the appliance must be confirmed. It is important in these circumstances

that any vapour control barrier is not damaged, and that any structural members of the house frame are not dam-

aged - refer to section 7.0.

The appliance must not be positioned vertically within 100 mm (4”) of a carpeted floor, rugs or fabric materials

of any kind. This dimension is measured vertically to the bottom of the appliance firebox.

VENTILATION

A minimum of 100 cm2purpose provided ventilation is required for this appliance. This may be achieved either

with one vent 100 cm2at a high or low position in the room, or split ventilation i.e. 50cm2 be installed at high

level and 50cm2 be installed at low level within the room. An openable window or equivalent is also required.

To reduce the possibility of draughts, road noise or insects entering the room via the air vent, we recommend

the use of “Black Hole”, “Vortex” or “Centurion” type vents featuring internal baffles. The requirements of other

flued appliance operating in the same room or space must be taken into consideration when assessing ventila-

tion.

4.0

4.1

VENTILATION ((continued)

Any ventilation fitted must comply with BS 5871 part 2 (BS5871 part 4 when published) and BS 5440 part 2.

Ventilation fitted under, or within immediate vicinity of the appliance must not be used as it may adversely effect

performance of the ODS system. The appliance MUST NOT be installed in a bedroom, bathroom or any sleep-

ing area. For Republic of Ireland, see relevant rules in force. The appliance shall not be installed within 1metre

of any air vent, and any air vent shall not be installed within 1 metre of the appliance.

UNPACKING TTHE AAPPLIANCE

Remove the outer packaging, remove any instructions or fixing kits.

Read ALL these instructions before continuing to unpack or install this appliance.

If the decorative frame is supplied attached to the firebox, remove the frame by removal of the lower two secur-

ing thumbscrews on either side of the firebox, and then unhook the frame from the top two thumbscrews.

Lift off the remaining packaging components and remove the contents of the box.

GAS SSUPPLY RROUTES

There are four possible entry points for the gas sup-

ply pipework to enter the appliance firebox. These

entry points are ‘knock out’ type holes (shown in fig-

ure 1).

Non-concealed gas connections may be made using

the entry points at either end of the firebox or the

one in the bottom of the firebox. A concealed gas

connection may be made using the knock out hole

in the centre back of the firebox. Select the most

appropriate entry point and knock out the relevant

hole.

No more than 1.5m of 8mm diameter pipe must be used to avoid unnecessary pressure drops. All installation

pipework must be in accordance with BS 6891.

If a concealed gas connection is to be made, the supply pipe should always be sleeved through walls and floors

using the shortest possible route.

For concealed supply pipe routing, pipes must (where possible) be vertical and providing there is sufficient wall

thickness available, they should be placed in pipe chases. Horizontal pipe runs should be avoided. Prior to chas-

ing a solid wall, an inspection should be made to note the proximity of any cables/sockets outlets which may

already be buried.

Pipes must be secured using suitable clips and protected against corrosion. Ideally factory finished protected

pipework and fittings should be used. Joints should be kept to a minimum and compression fittings must not be

used. The pipework installation must be tested for soundness before any protection is applied and/or the

pipework and fittings are buried.

FIXING THE APPLIANCE

Remove any protective film coatings from the finished/decorative surfaces of the appliance. If the decorative

facia is supplied fitted to the firebox, remove it by following section 8.4 in reverse order. After having selected

the final mounting position of the appliance, taking into account the requirements as specified in sections 3 and

4 of these instructions, the integrity of the wall, and the feasibility of the proposed supply pipe routing, the fire-

box of the appliance may be secured to the wall.

To ensure customer safety, be sure to design the installation so that the

strength of both the wall and any wall fixings used are sufficient.

Focal Point Fires plc. assumes absolutely no responsibility for injuries and

damages that may occur due to improper installation or handling. The

appliance should not be installed until all wet plastering and/or dry wall

sanding and wall painting has been completed. Do not block the venti-

lation holes of the appliance. The wall onto which the appliance is

installed must be flat. Install only on a vertical surface. Avoid sloped sur-

faces. Installation onto anything other than a vertical wall may result in

fire, damage or injury.

If the appliance is to be mounted on the inner leaf of a conventional cavity brick wall, or a solid wall, then the

fibre wall plugs and fixing screws provided may be used. Depending on the condition of the wall it may be nec-

essary to use additional fixings. In this situation, any additional fixings and wallplugs should be of the same size

and type as the ones provided. At the appropriate stage of the installation, drill four holes using only a 6.5mm

masonry bit to a depth of 39mm. Insert the fibre wallplugs provided ensuring

they are flush to the wall.

If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed con-

struction wall then efforts should be made to fix in at least two positions verti-

cally, into one of the wooden studs, or supporting wooden members of the wall

using two of the fixing screws provided. If this is not achievable then the wall should be strengthened using

appropriate building materials.

If there is no alternative than to rely on

some

plasterboard fixings then special cavity screw fixings or hollow wall

anchors will be required which are not supplied with this prod-

uct. These should be constructed from metal and not plastic and

of the design indicated in figure 2. For further guidance for wall

fixing in timber framed buildings, refer to the current edition of

IGE/UP/7.

Flat WWall FFixing

To assist with fixing the

appliance, a template is

provided, as shown in

figure 3.

Mark the positions

shown as “P23G Fixing

points” on the wall.

If a concealed gas connection is to be made ensure the gas sup-

ply pipe is in it’s final

position and can enter

the appliance in the cor-

rect position when the

appliance is hung on the wall.

Drill the wall as appropriate for the type of wall as previously described

in this section, and insert the chosen type of wall fixings. Insert the wall fixing screws into the top wall plugs, tak-

ing care to leave the screws protruding approximately 5mm from the wall. Now hang the appliance onto these

screws through the two keyhole shaped holes in the upper brackets on the back panel of the appliance.

Insert the lower fixing screws into the lower wall plugs through the corresponding fixing holes in the lower part

of the back panel. Do not tighten fully.

Figure 3

FIXING THE APPLIANCE ((continued)

Before tightening the wall mounting screws fully, at this stage it

is recommended to check the horizontal alignment of the appli-

ance with a spirit level, as small adjustments can still be made if

necessary. When this has been checked, tighten all four fixing

screws fully. To access the upper fixing screws insert a screw-

driver through the round access holes in the front face of the

outlet grille (as shown in figure 4). These access holes are locat-

ed in the same position on all models.

Corner FFixing

A fixing template is not provided for corner fixing as the corner

fixing bracket itself may be used for the purposes of marking out.

The corner that the appliance is to be installed into must be

square and the walls must be flat. The corner fixing bracket is

supplied pre-assembled.

If a concealed gas connection is to be made ensure the gas sup-

ply pipe is in it’s final position and can enter the appliance in the

correct position when the appliance is mounted on the corner

bracket.

In order to facilitate concealed gas connections a hole is provid-

ed in the corner bracket that is in line with the rear supply pipe

knock-out in the fire box. Remove the corner fixing bracket from

the protective packaging. Position the corner mounting bracket

in the desired location, and using a spirit level, ensure the brack-

et is square and not twisted.

With the bracket held in position mark the required fixing positions on the wall. It is recommended that the

bracket is fixed to the wall in at least six positions as shown in fig-

ure 5.

Note: Use of the horizontally slotted fixing holes may allow some

fine adjustment before finally tightening the fixing screws. Drill

the wall as appropriate for the type of wall as previously

described in this section, and insert the chosen type of wall fix-

ings and attach the corner bracket to the walls, using the fixing

screws. Before finally tightening the screws, use a spirit level

again the check the bracket is square and not twisted.

With the corner mounting bracket in position, now hang the

upper mounting brackets on the back panel of the appliance

onto the two corresponding hooks on the upper cross section of

the corner mounting bracket (see figure 6). Remove the glass

door from the appliance by removing the four retaining screws,

and remove the lower burner cover plate by removing the four retaining screws. Remove the burner (refer to

section 10.1).

Ensure the two lower retaining studs of the corner mounting bracket (shown in figure 6) are protruding through

the lower mounting brackets on the lower back panel of the appliance, and into the lower inner firebox. Check

that the studs are fully engaged, and then using M5 washers, and either the M5 nuts or M5 wingnuts provided,

secure the appliance to the lower retaining studs of the corner mounting bracket. Tighten the nuts/wingnuts

fully. The firebox is now secured to the corner mounting bracket. Refit the burner.

CHECKING TTHE BBURNER

There are no imitation fuel bed components to install. The appliance features a ribbon burner which is

designed to produce a continuous band of flame over it’s length. The burner should be visually inspected to

ensure it is free from any foreign matter.

If it is necessary to clean or dust off the burner then the glass door should be removed by removal of the four

retaining screws. Re-fit the glass door after cleaning or inspection, ensuring the correct orientation and a good

seal.

TESTING AAND CCOMMISSIONING

Turn on and test the gas supply up to the fire for any leaks, in accordance with the current edition of BS6891.

OPERATING TTHE AAPPLIANCE

The pilot is visible behind the left hand side of the burner.

The control knob is located in the centre of the appliance and is normally

accessed by swinging the metal facia panel upwards from the bottom. The

facia panel is not fitted until section 8.4. The control knob is marked as

shown in figure 7.

Push in and turn the control knob to the SPARK position, and hold there for

a few seconds. Continue turning anti-clockwise through the spark click to

the PILOT light position, ensuring the pilot has lit. If not, return the knob

clockwise, and repeat.

When the pilot lights after the spark, keep the knob depressed for approximately ten seconds. Now release the

knob and the pilot should stay alight. If the pilot is extinguished during use, wait three minutes before repeating

the ignition procedure.

To achieve the HIGH setting, push the control knob in slightly and continue turning anti-clockwise to the high

position. The main burner should light after a few seconds. To decrease the setting to LOW, turn the control

knob clockwise to the low setting.

To turn to the PILOT position from the HIGH or LOW positions, press the control knob in, and return to the pilot

position and release. To turn the fire OFF, keep the knob pressed in, return to the off position and release.

SPARK FFAILURE

The gap between the spark electrode and the pilot should be 3 - 5mm to produce a good spark. There should

be no need to adjust this. If under any circumstances the piezo electric spark fails, the pilot cannot be lit man-

ually.

SETTING PPRESSURE

The pressure test point is located on the left hand side of the appliance, on the main burner pipe, next to the

brass restrictor/connector as shown in figure 8. Release the setting pressure test point screw, and attach a pres-

sure gauge. Light the fire on the HIGH setting.

To commission the appliance, the burner pressure must be in accordance with the figures stated in the data sec-

tion of these instructions.

The fire is factory set to achieve these pressures and any

significant variation could indicate a supply problem. If

the pressure is too high, the gas supply meter may be set

incorrectly. This should be checked with the fire running

and if necessary reset by the gas supplier.

If the burner pressure is too low, then check the inlet

pressure with the appliance running. If this is less than

approximately 20mbar it will need to be reset by the gas

supplier. If the setting pressure is too low, but the meter

pressure is acceptable, then a problem in the supply

pipework is to be suspected.

This will be dirt and debris, kinked or inadequate size

pipes, restriction in a fitting, shut off elbow not fully open or solder flashing across a joint. Identify the cause of

the restriction and rectify. Switch the fire off, disconnect the pressure gauge and refit the test nipple screw. Light

the fire and check for gas soundness.

In the event that the burner pressure is not in accordance with the figures stated in the data section of these

instructions, the appliance must not be commissioned, and the manufacturer should be contacted for guidance.

FITTING TTHE DDECORATIVE FFACIA

ASSEMBLY

The metal facia panel is supported by two self-locking M6

screws, one on each side of the fire as shown in figure 9. The

facia panel must be held in position while the screws are insert-

ed on each side - it is recommended to seek assistance for this

operation. The screws should be screwed in fully and then

undone one turn to allow the facia panel to swing openforaccess

to the controls.

BRIEFING TTHE CCUSTOMER

All instructions must be handed to the user for safekeeping. Show the customer how to light and control the fire.

After commissioning the appliance, the customer should be instructed on the safe use of the appliance and the

need for regular servicing. Frequency of service depends on usage, but MUST be carried out at least once annu-

ally. Advise that cleaning of the fire may be achieved when the fire is cold using a damp cloth and mild deter-

gent on most surfaces. Advise that the fire will emit a "newness" smell for a time after initial commissioning and

that extra ventilation may be needed during this time. Recommend that a guard be used for the protection of

the young, pets, the elderly and the infirm
