8.0 PREPARING THE APPLIANCE

Gas connection :The heater gas inlet connection is 3/8" NPT at the
regulator, located below the burner, in the center of the heater.
There are four possible entry points for the gas supply pipework to enter the
appliance firebox. These entry points are 'knock out' type holes (shown in
figure 1).
Non-concealed gas connections may be made using the entry points on the
sides or base 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.
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
chasing 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.

9.0 MOUNTING THE APPLIANCE

After having selected the final mounting position of the appliance, tak-
ing into account the site requirements as specified in section 7 of these
instructions, the integrity of the wall, and the feasibility of the proposed
supply pipe routing, the appliance firebox may be secured to the wall.
WARNING : THE WALL WHERE THE APPLIANCE IS TO
BE INSTALLED MUST BE CAPABLE OF LONG-TERM
SUPPORT OF THE TOTAL LOAD OF THE APPLIANCE.
MEASURES SHOULD ALSO BE TAKEN TO ENSURE
SUFFICIENT STRENGTH TO WITHSTAND THE FORCE OF
EARTHQUAKES, VIBRATION AND OTHER EXTERNAL
FORCES.
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 assumes absolutely no responsibility for injuries and
damages that may occur due to improper installation or handling.
Incorrect installation can cause the appliance to fall from the wall and
cause injury. Do not block the ventilation holes of the appliance. The
wall onto which the appliance is installed must be flat.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW FANS TO BLOW DIRECTLY
INTO THE FIREPLACE. AVOID ANY DRAFTS THAT ALTER
BURNER FLAME PATTERNS.
Install only on a vertical surface. Avoid sloped surfaces. Installation
onto anything other than a vertical wall may result in fire, damage or
injury.
A full size fitting template is supplied to assist with wall mounting.
Figure 1
Mark the positions shown as "Fixing Points" on the wall. If the
appliance is to be mounted on the inner leaf of a conventional cavity
wall, or a solid wall, drill four holes using a 1/4" masonry bit to a depth
of 1 ". Insert the fiber wall plugs provided.
1/2
If the appliance is to be mounted on a dry lined wall or a timber framed
construction wall then special cavity screw fixings will be required which
are not supplied with this product. These should be constructed from
metal and not plastic.
If a concealed gas connection is to be made ensure the gas supply pipe
is in it's final position and can enter the appliance in the correct position
when the appliance is hung on the wall.
Insert the wall mounting screws into the top wall plugs, taking care to
leave the screws protruding approximately 3/8" from the wall. Now hang
the appliance onto these screws through the two keyhole shaped holes
in the back panel of the appliance.
