Location Requirements
Horizon natural draft electronic ignition fireplaces are designed to be installed as a complete fireplace system. The firebox incorporates a gas burner with electronic ignition and spiggot for attaching a flue. The flue needs to run vertically and exit above the roof line. 45 degrees bends can be utilised. All Australian requirements for flues are to be observed when installing.

Ventilation Requirements:
Rooms with gas open fireplaces require as per clause 6.10.9.5 in AS/NZS5601.1:2013, one or more ventilation openings with a combined free ventilation area of not less than the equivalent cross section area of the flue cowl shall be provided for each decorative flame effect fire, and calculations based on clause 6.4.4

“THIS APPLIANCE REQUIRES FRESH AIR TO OPERATE SAFELY. THE ROOM WHERE THIS APPLIANCE IS INSTALLED MUST HAVE PERMANENT VENTILATION FROM OUTDOORS, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS OF AS/NZS 5601”

NOTE: The chimney in which the appliance is installed is not to be considered as a ventilation opening.

Before Installation

The Natural Draft Electronic Ignition (N.D.E.I.) flue system shall be installed by authorized personnel in accordance with the manufacturer’s installation instructions, local gas fitting regulations, municipal building codes, electrical wiring regulations, and any other statutory regulations. Contact your local building authorities about restrictions and installation inspections that may be required. If in doubt, contact your local dealer or Kemlan’s Head office.

IMPORTANT AUSTRALIAN CODES:

• Australian Standards AS 5601 Gas Installation

• THIS APPLIANCE CONSISTS OF A COMPLETE ASSEMBLY WHICH INCLUDES A FIREBOX AND FABRICATED FLUE SYSTEM. PLEASE REFER TO INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL, FLUE SIZES AND METHOD OF INSTALLATION.
• PRIMARILY A DECORATIVE AND NOT A HEATING APPLIANCE.

AFTER INSTALLING APPLIANCE CHECK THAT CHIMNEY DRAWS PROPERLY.

Gas Installation

1. Check unit is suitable for intended gas supply.
2. Note position on gas appliance on drawing specification on right hand side of appliance.
3. A gas cock has to be fitted prior to gas burner to allow unit to be removed for servicing.
4. If material has been installed around firebox and access panel below is not accessible the top plate can be removed to gain access by removing four screws and lifting out top plate.
5. Connection is half inch BSP fitting. Cut and deburr both ends of pipe. Fit end to gas supply point and turn on for approximately 5 seconds to clear dirt and grit out of pipe. Connect into gas valve.
6. Turn on the gas and check all connections for leaks using approved method for testing. Fix any leaks.

Adjusting Pressure, Pilot and Low Fire

1. All settings are set to operate at nominal pressure (see data plate). Test points to measure inlet and outlet pressure are located on gas valve. Unscrew brass screw on test point pressure nipples and attach manometer and read pressures with unit running. Adjust pressure to data plate requirements.
2. Check low fire if adjusted correctly.
3. Note: Failure to set pressures correctly will void warranty on the unit.

Lighting Instructions
Natural Draft Electronic Ignition Fireplaces are provided with 240volt electronic ignition systems. An on/off wall switch is supplied and fitted with unit. The fireplace is switched on from wall switch. Power is then sent to valve to light pilot and main burner will then ignite from pilot. Burner is turned off by turning off wall switch. System does not have a high low burner switch.

Laying the fire – Coal & Pebble

• Evenly spread a bag of Vermiculite into the burner tray. Tray should be completely filled to the top with Vermiculite to a depth of approximately 45mm.
• Unpack the coals/pebbles contained in a clear plastic bag and lay a row of coals/pebbles on the vermiculite along the back of the burner tray leaving approximately 12-15mm between them.
• Leave spaces at the edges to allow free flow of gas.
• Place a further row of coals/pebbles directly in front of the first row but staggered so that the second row of coals are behind the gaps of the first row leaving approximately 12-15mm between the rows of each coal/pebble.
• Lay further rows of staggered coals/pebbles depending on the size of the basket grate.
• Once the bottom layer is completed, build up 2-3 tiers of coals in a honeycomb pattern to form an elongated pyramid.
• Lay the coals/pebbles so that some irregularity to the pile through which the flames may lick, is created.
• Your aim is to build “windows” into the fire through which the radiant effect may show but at the same time, not leaving such large gaps between the coals/ pebbles that excessive air may enter and “damp down” the red glow.
• After the fire has been alight for 15 minutes, you may wish to add the odd coal/pebble or even relay the fire completely. Allow to cool before touching the coals/pebbles.
• Experience will enable you to obtain a pleasing appearance with suitable heat output, but please bear in mind that it is important to maintain the general pattern described above and indicated in illustrations.

Commissioning Procedure

Installed correctly the burner should not emit any fumes into the room. The following procedure should be undertaken to test that the unit is operating correctly.

1. After unit has been operating for a short period a smoke match, smoke tube, carbon dioxide analyser or similar should be directed at the top opening of the unit.

2. This procedure should be undertaken with the following conditions in the room:
   • Open or closed windows
   • Operation of extraction/exhaust fans, range hoods etc.
   • Operation of other gas appliances
   • Operation of optional appliance fan at any speed.

3. Should any spillage be detected the cause must be rectified before allowing commissioning of unit.

4. Please test appliance operation before leaving.

User Instructions

POWER FLUE SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

DIRECT IGNITION

Trouble shooting guide for Techrite ignition pack

Warning: This is a 240VAC module. All connections to the module are 240V (except ignition cable and flame sense). Ensure power is switched off before checking any connection or replacing any components.

There is a red LED (light) and a green LED (light) on the blue ignition box. If a fault occurs the sequence of the flashing red light indicates the fault. These codes are listed below.
The green light indicated the ignition box is sensing the flame.

Atmospheric Models

Fan Forced Models

Notes:
The ignition unit is polarity sensitive. If the active and neutral cables are not wired correctly, the unit will not sense a flame, the green LED will not come on. The heater will light but will turn off almost immediately as a result.

If the heater lights but the igniter keeps sparking then the unit shuts down after 3 to 5 seconds, incorrect polarity is a likely cause. The fault code on the module red LED will be 2 long and 1 short.

Before carrying out repairs, turn off the power, visually inspect all cables and connections for damage or corrosion.
On start up, once the unit has passed the self test (and pressure switch is closed on fan forced models) you should be able to hear a clunk from the gas valve as it opens. If no sound from the gas valve, check connections. If the valve clunks but no ignition, check gas supply and spark electrode.

On fan forced models, if you suspect a pressure switch fault, you can blow on the input to the switch and you should be able to hear it switch. If you have a multi meter you can check if the switch is opening and closing as pressure is applied. Be certain to turn off the power before disconnecting or checking switch!
