Most building regulatory Authorities in Australia require any
wood heater installation to comply with Installation Standard
AS/NZS 2918:2001. Different states and councils may have
varying regulations. Check local building regulations before
installing the appliance.
All Blaze wood heaters have been tested to ensure that they
will meet the appropriate safety Standard requirements if the
instructions in this manual are followed. As the safety and
emissions performance can be affected by altering the
appliance, no modifications are allowed without written
permission from the manufacturer.
WE RECOMMEND THAT THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR BLAZE
WOOD HEATER BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER.
WARNING: THE APPLIANCE AND FLUE SYSTEM SHALL BE
INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AS/NZS 2918:2001 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 4012 & 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 4012 & 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 4012 & AS/NZS 4013.
CAUTION: MIXING OF APPLIANCE OR FLUE-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.

This Blaze B100 heater will arrive with the firebox body
secured to the wood box.
Rear Heat Shield Deflector
The rear heat shield reflector is supplied inside the firebox.
Remove from the firebox, and unwrap.
To fit the rear heat shield deflector, remove the three M6
dome head nuts from the rear heat shield, push the heat
shield deflector over the three threaded bolts until it is flush
with the rear heat shield.
Refit the three nuts to secure the heat shield deflector.
Baffle Plate
To install the baffle plate, refer to section “6. Installing The
Baffle Plate” for details.
Bricks & Brick Retainers
To install the bricks and brick retainers, refer to section “7.
Installing The Fire Bricks” for details.
Ash Plate
The ash plate will arrive assembled. To replace the ash plate,
refer to section “2. Replacement of Ash Plate” in the
Operating Instructions for details.
3.1 Positioning the Heater
First review the necessary minimum clearances specified
below before considering where to position the heater. These
clearances can be greater if desired.
Also check the practicability of installing the flue system in
relation to any obstructing roof beams before positioning the
heater.
These clearance distances can only be reduced if the
surrounding walls are made of non-combustible material, e.g.
Stone, brick, or concrete. If non-combustible material,
distance can be reduced to 100mm. Alternatively, shielding of
the wall(s) can reduce clearances (refer to next section for
more detail).
Depending on the type of flue shielding used, the clearances
to combustible surfaces varies.
