Important Safety Information WARNING: THE APPLIANCE AND FLUE-SYSTEM SHALL BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AS/NZS 2918 AND THE APPROPRIATE REQUIREMENTS OF THE RELEVANT BUILDING CODE OR CODES. WARNING: APPLIANCES INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS STANDARD SHALL COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF AS/NZS 4013 WHERE REQUIRED BY THE REGULATORY AUTHORITY, I.E. THE APPLIANCE SHALL BE IDENTIFIABLE BY A COMPLIANCE PLATE WITH THE MARKING TESTED TO AS/NZS 4013. ANY MODIFICATION OF THE APPLIANCE THAT HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED IN WRITING BY THE TESTING AUTHORITY IS CONSIDERED TO BE IN BREACH OF THE APPROVAL GRANTED FOR COMPLIANCE WITH AS/NZS 4013. CAUTION: MIXING OF APPLIANCE OR FLU-SYSTEM COMPONENTS FROM DIFFERENT SOURCES OR MODIFYING THE DIMENSIONAL SPECIFICATION OF COMPONENTS MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. WHERE SUCH ACTION IS CONSIDERED, THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE CONSULTED IN THE FIRST INSTANCE. CAUTION: CRACKED AND BROKEN COMPONENTS, e.g. GLASS S OR CERAMIC TILES, MAY RENDER THE INSTALLATION UNSAFE. Exclusion of Liability Whilst every care has been taken in formulating these instructions, no responsibility whatsoever will attach to and/or claim lie against, the manufacturer and/or the distributor of the heater as a result of any failure to follow the whole or any part of the instructions and/or as a result of incorrect information herein and/or any omission here from.

Step 1 Refer to clearances as specified throughout these instructions and select position for your heater. Allow for clearances in roof for flue system. Ensure heater is clear of any combustible materials. EXAMPLES OF TYPICAL INSTALLATIONS Air vents as shown must be used. The vents at the bottom need to be a minimum of,000mm² (equivalent of a cm x cm opening). This allows the air to flow through the enclosure. See Step 4 for further details.

Step 2 Put your heater into position: a) For Concrete Slab Only: Use spacers underneath heater to achieve required hearth height. For Combustible Floors Only (such as timber floors): If there is to be any combustible floor covering material (such as carpet) under the heater s final position, it is recommended that it is removed before placing the sub frame and heater into position. Place the sub frame on floor. Place the heater on top of sub frame. The sub frame is provided with the heater. It consists of 12 mm fibre cement sheet, 25 mm steel tube, with 6 mm spacers. SUB FRAME TIMBER FLOOR DIAGRAM NOT TO SCALE b) A hearth will need to be installed in front of the heater. Use 12mm thick cement sheet. Refer to the table below for the hearth dimensions. MEDIUM LARGE WIDTH (mm) DEPTH (mm) 950 50 When the heater is in position, remove the front fascia. Clean Air Woodheating P/L Page 3
Step 3 Fix triple case flue to heater. Screw the bottom flue heat shield to the flue outer casing - allow 25 mm clearance. Install through roof to manufacturers specifications to comply with AS/NZS 2918. The heater must be installed by a certified installer. We recommend you use a Maxiheat Zero Clearance Flue Kit.

The boxed area for the heater must be sealed from external draughts and vermin. 2. The frame must extend to the ceiling. 3. All dimensions and clearances are IMUM and must not be reduced under any circumstances. Clean Air Woodheating P/L Page 5
Step 5 We recommend the heater frame be covered with non-combustible sheeting. A floating isolator panel also needs to be installed. The floating isolator panel sandwiches between the front of the heater and the heater fascia as per diagram below. This panel MUST use noncombustible sheeting. Do not fix the panel.

If installing with a mantlepiece: the floating isolator panel edge will be covered by the mantlepiece. If installing without a mantlepiece: a floating isolator panel is still required. Use a trim to finish off the panel edges so that it remains floating. Paint surrounding area and tile hearth with desired tiles. Note: Minor hairline cracks on the floating isolator panel may be noticed with time. These are not a problem and can be repainted after sheet settles. Clean Air Woodheating P/L Page 6
Step 6 : Installation with Mantlepiece Fit the mantlepiece and complete the area. Please refer to following pages for mantlepiece installation clearances.
