SITE REQUIREMENTS (continued)
Clearances to non-combustibles
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 proceeding 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 (16") 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 to combustible materials
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 moder-
ate 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 (20") 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 appliance 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 con-
junction with any type of combustible fire surround. No combustible shelves should be positioned on
the wall above the appliance. It should be established that any mirrors or picture frames etc. to be
positioned on the wall above the appliance 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 mem-
bers of the house frame are not damaged - 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.
4.1
VENTILATION
If the room in which the appliance is installed is naturally ventilated, a minimum of 100 cm
provided ventilation MUST be provided for this appliance. This may be achieved either with one vent
100 cm
2
at a high or low position in the room, or split ventilation i.e. 50 cm
and 50 cm
2
required.
To reduce the possibility of draughts, road noise or insects entering the room via the air vent, we rec-
ommend the use an air vent of the type that feature internal baffles.
Ventilation fitted under, or within immediate vicinity of the appliance must not be used as it may
adversely affect performance of the ODS system. The appliance shall not be installed within one metre
of any existing air vent, and any new air vent shall not be installed within one metre of the appliance.
If the room in which the appliance is to be installed is served by heat recovery ventilation (HRV) or
energy recovery ventilation (ERV) then no purpose provided ventilation is required but a room air
change rate of at least one air change per hour is required for this appliance. The appliance MUST be
interlocked with the ventilation system such that it is only possible to operate the appliance if the ven-
tilation system is in operation.
In all cases, the requirements of any other gas, oil or solid fuel appliances operating in the same room
or space must be taken into consideration when assessing ventilation. Any ventilation fitted must
comply (where applicable) with BS 5871 part 4 and BS 5440 part 2.
For Republic of Ireland refer to the current edition of IS813 and any relevant rules in force.
