POINTS TO CONSIDER PRIOR TO INSTALLATION

Prior to Construction and Installation Important Notes:
Install to AS/NZS 2918:2001.
Install to manufacture’s specifications.
All new installations require a permit.
For special requirements concerning materials (timber mantle and surrounds) within close proximity of Warmington products, please contact your

local Warmington Technical Consultant or designated Installer.

Stage 1: Frame Construction Procedure by Builder.

Mark out Flue Centre on Floor.
Mark out Heat Cell Clearance requirements.
Construct Plinth only, to required height. *

Stage 2: Install Procedure by Certified “Warmington Installer” or see www.homeheat.co.nz go to ”members” & follow Instructions .
For an NZHHA Cerified SFAIT Installer .

Fit Fire to Plinth.
Fit Adaptor to Firebox.

Construct Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Enclosure around Traditional Firebox.
Fit Flue System.
Fit Cowl and Flashing System

Stage 3: Finishing Procedure by Builder. NOTE : Bricklaying of Firebricks can be carried out by clients Bricklayer at a Convenient time.

Construct Hearth to required thickness. *
Finish Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) enclosure and Hearth to Customers requirements (e.g. paint / tiles ).
Close in Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) enclose and chimney chase . ( If in timber Alcove ).

* Note: A Certified Installer can Install Hearth and Plinth also.

Ensure that the Warmington and flue system is swept annually or more frequently if required.
To Sweep Flue and Firebox:

Cover front of fire with sheets.
Remove cowl from top of chimney.
Sweep from the top, down the flue.
Remove all soot and ash.
Ensure cowl and bird protection is clean and replaced.

Visually inspect fireplace and flue system.

INSTALLATION ORDER OF OPERATIONS Installation is not provided

Location of the Fire. Open fires are better located at one end of a room or area, as they project the heat away from their opening.

The Topography of the land .

The slope and position of the land in relation to the home has a bearing on how the wind will interact with the fire and flue system. Care needs to be taken to ensure that the flue

termination is in the correct position to maximise performance.

The Prevailing Wind.

Care needs to be taken to ensure that the flue termination is in the correct position as wind and gusts that hits the flue and cowl system may overcome the cowl and draft back down

the flue into the home. This can be a combination of down draft and high pressure.

Hearth and Plinth:

The Height of the Hearth off the Floor. The Finis hing that is to be used on the Hearth is to be allowed for at the design stage.
Note : Ensure Air Intake at Base of Firebox is not b locked or restricted .

Positioning of the Flue System:

There is a maximum distance that an offset flue can be Installed . Reference to AS/NZS 2918:2001 .

Flue And Fire Clearance:

To be maintained to the Manufactures Instructions &/or Comply with appropriate Standards & Building Codes .

Pressure Differential, Venting & External Air into the Building :
All fires need air to burn and draw correctly, Kitchen Fans, Air Conditioning units, High Wind Zones, Nat urally forming Draft spaces, can all have an effect on the pressure difference

from inside the building to the outside. A lower pressure in the building may induce a draft down the flue system and back into the building causing the fire to smoke or spill into the
building. Care needs to be taken at the design and installation stage to adequately vent the building, or some mechanical system to ens ure that there is always a neutral or
positive pressure at the fireplace and a negative press ure at the flue outlet. This will ensure that the draft in the flue system is always to the outside.

“CAITEC AIR” the limits and requirements. See details in these Spec’s

Wind Noise:

You may encounter wind noise in some installations. It is recommended to use an enclosed chase with a chimney pot to help reduce noise.

There will always be some noise from the flue systems of all fireplaces.

Traditional Open fires are the least efficient fires available and can lack in Heat output.

Installation Notes:

Due to the expansion and contraction of metal fireplaces a 3mm gap between the flange and the finished surround should be mai ntained.

FIREBOX INSTALLATION

This is a general installation guide only – Contact a “NZHHA Installer” for Installation Advice or go to
www..homeheat.co.nz then select Members & follow Instructions , to find a Certified NZHHA SFAIT Installer .

1. All the dimensions are minimums

2. Fit the Plinth into position in the Cavity. If onto a wooden floor ensure that an insulating plinth is fitted as per the specifications.

Ensure that the plinth is elevated to allow for finishing on the hearth. (See Hearth and plinth details)

3. Fit the firebox into the Cavity. Bolt the fire box to the plinth or through to the floor with the bolting point provided on t he Left and
Right hand sides of the fire box or drill holes through base for Bolts (seismic restraints bolts not provided).

in the Left and right hand sides of the Fire box.

5. Install the flue system. Ensure that the Flue system comply to ASNZS 2918

6. Fit the Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Heat cell around the fire. A general minimum lay out is shown in this
Specification.

Note: Hearth and Plinth Construction.

For combustible flooring an insulating hearth and plinth of
75mm Hebel is required.

Plinth to be off set above hearth by the hearth finishing’s

( e.g. tiles / granite / plaster / etc )

Visit the Warmington Web Site for “Autoclaved Aerated Concrete
(AAC) ” instruction (PDF Download).. www.warmington.co.nz

IMPORTANT NOTE :

*Note: If Solid Plastering the Heat Cell structure, it is
recommended to use a fibreglass mesh with a latex
plaster to minimise the chance of the plaster cracking. (See
your plasterer for correct materials and applications).

HEARTH & PLINTH CONSTRUCTION DETAILS

CAITEC Air Venting System

Caitec" draws air from an external air
source to ensure that the open fire has
pre-heated combustion air maximising
efficiency while maintaining the home at
constant pressure equilibrium, reducing
the risk of back drafting .
Ensure that the cavity is vented to
Outside Fresh Air and the Warmington
Fire will take care of the rest. 2 x
100mm Diameter vent are required (Or
equivalent to that.)

Builder to supply external air to the

Cavity and the “Warmington Fire”

takes care of the rest.
