CLEANING
CLEANING BRASS / CHROME FIRE FRONTS
Some of the brass / chrome fire fronts are
lacquered and should not tarnish. Clean with a
soft cloth. If your fire front is tarnished it may be
an unlacquered one (See Below).
Some of the brass / chrome fire fronts are
unlacquered and will tarnish. If your fire front
has tarnished and you wish to clean it, remove it
from the appliance and use a good quality brass
polish, we recommend Solvol Autosol metal
cleaner, available from most car accessory
shops, or Hotspot Multi-use Metal Polish“,
available from your supplier or through our mail
order service. Metal polishes, abrasive cleaners
and solvents can damage painted surfaces.
Always test your cleaner on an inconspicuous
area first.
CLEANING BLACK FIRE FRONTS
To clean wait until the fire is cold and gently
dust any deposit on the surface using a dry soft
paint brush.
TO CLEAN / REPLACE THE CERAMICS

IMPORTANT NOTES
This fire is CE approved to the European
Standard EN 509 and is intended for decorative
purposes.
During use the ceramics may vary in colour and
as with all high temperature ceramics, cracks
may appear. This is normal and is due to the
initial shrinkage of the ceramics and will not
effect the fire’s performance.
The fire is fitted with an Oxygen Depletion
Sensor (ODS) which continuously monitors the
atmosphere in the room turning off the gas
supply to the fire if combustion products are
detected. If the fire turns itself off, re-light the
fire following the lighting procedure. If the fire
repeatedly turns itself off a qualified service
engineer must be called to check the complete
installation.

SITE REQUIREMENTS
The air supply to the appliance must be in
accordance with National Regulations.
An air vent is not normally required in the UK
for the 16” Standard version when fitted into a
16” fireback. A permanent 100 cm2 air vent
must be fitted for the 16” High, all 18” versions,
all versions fitted into a 18” fireback and for all
versions fitted in Southern Ireland. It is
important that the air vent is periodically
checked to ensure that the vent remains free
from obstruction at all times.
To comply with European Regulations the
fireplace must have a non-combustible hearth
not less than 12mm thick. The edge of the
hearth which may be in the form of a raised lip,
must be a minimum of 50mm above the floor
level and must project at least 300mm in front
and 150mm either side of the front edge of the
burner.
However, in England, Wales, Scotland, Northern
and Southern Ireland a hearth is not required if
the appliance is installed so that every part of
any flame or incandescent material will be at
least 225mm above the floor. On our appliances
the lowest flame is that of the pilot. This
equates to the builders opening being a
minimum height above the floor of 150mm.
The fire must be installed in a non-combustible
builders opening (Romance versions - fitted
with a BS 1251 tapered fireback), which must
only have an entrance through the fireplace
opening and an exit via the chimney/flue. All
other openings must be sealed using noncombustible materials.
FLUE
The chimney/flue must be class 1 and must
have a height of at least 3m with an internal
diameter of not less than 175mm (Romance 16”
Standard versions are approved for use with a
125mm class 2 liner or terminal). Any damper
or register plate must be removed or locked
open.
The chimney/flue must be sound, free from
obstruction, have a positive updraught and
swept before the appliance is installed. A flue
test in accordance with national regulations
must be carried out.
GAS SUPPLY
The gas connection to the fire must be in 8mm
copper pipe not more than 1.5 metres long and
in accordance with National Regulations. Any
additional pipework must be of a diameter to
ensure adequate pressure at the fire. Note: The
end of the pipe must be covered to ensure that
debris cannot enter the pipe when being passed
through masonry.
An isolation valve (supplied) must be fitted
adjacent to the burner, which when closed,
allows the fire to be disconnected for
maintenance or repair in accordance with
National Regulations.
FIRE FRONTS
The fire can be used with any fire front from the
Brilliant range. Alternative fire fronts can be
used providing the minimum open area between
the fire front bars is no less than 65 sq.cm. and
the air inlet in the ash pan cover is at least 50
sq.cm.
COMBUSTIBLE SHELF
A 75mm combustible wooden shelf may be
fitted to within 150mm of the top edge of the
fireplace opening, the depth of the shelf can be
increased by proportionally increasing the
height above the appliance.
