Use no more than two 45° bends in the totalflue run and maintain at least 250mm of straightflue pipe between the bends.Be careful!Installing a flue on the shortestwall may subject it to downdraughts or reverse air flowsthrough the heater which can bedifficult to find a solution to.Always adopt correct flue designpractices.In windy locations considerinstallation of a powerflueversion heater or at least an antidown draught cowl to reduceany flue operation problems.The heater has been tested andshould operate satisfactorilywith an optimum flue length of4.5 meters.Exceeding this length may affectthe stability of the flame patternand the operation of the heater.Contact our technical supportdepartment if any further adviceis required.An example of an installation with a flue fitted.(in most cases only a single skin flue is required)°Test the operation of the chimney before installing the new heater.°Be careful! CANNON heaters are high efficiency products with low fluegas temperatures (typically 100°C) so if you are replacing an older typeradiant heater with a much higher flue gas temperature (150°C or higher)make sure of the integrity of the fireplace and chimney before installingthe new CANNON log fire.°A solid, levelled and smooth base is required (fill gaps with fibreglassinsulation if necessary).°Avoid installing into large volume fireplaces and chimneys and not fitting aflue. (It is better to install a flue in these applications).°We recommend cleaning or sweeping the chimney and fireplace beforethe installation of the heater commences.°There must be a good seal around the heater, gas piping and electricalcable rear entry to stop any leakage of combustion products. Do not useadhesives or silicone sealant, the heater must be able to be easilyremoved if necessary.°Install a chimney plate and cowl to the chimney opening using weather-proof mortar to common building practice.°Remove any curved firewall that slopes too far forward to the fireplaceopening as it causes restriction to the flue path above the heater flueoutlet.°Make sure that the heater is fully commissioned and be certain to conducta test of the integrity of the flue operation, taking into account anyinfluences created by rangehoods, exhaust fans, central heating, etc.°To avoid any unnecessary delays and inconvenience to your customerplease contact or Technical Services Department on 1300 727 421 if theinstallation is unusual or you have concerns with the installation and/orheater operation before the installation commences.°Any service requests resulting from incorrect installations are not coveredby our warranty conditions and these calls will result in charges, usuallyto the end user, so please ensure that the installation and commissioninghas been satisfactorily carried out before calling for any warranty service.°Please make sure that your customer is fully instructed on how to operatethe heater.7
