Hearths
All our gas fires must be fitted on a flat non-combustible base. In addition a non-combustible hearth or physical barrier with minimum dimensions detailed in the appliance instructions should be provided in front of the fireplace opening where relevant.
However, with hole in the wall fire installations, where it may be desirable not to include a hearth with the appliance installation, Building Regulation Approved Document J paragraph 3.40 currently states:- Appliance should be placed on hearths unless:
a) they are installed so that every part of any flame or incandescent material will be at least 225mm above the floor; or
b) the manufacturer’s instructions state that a hearth is not required.
Magiglo would recommend that a hearth or physical barrier be installed with our appliances. However, should you decide not to follow our recommendation and do not fit a hearth or subsequently decide to remove the hearth / physical barrier, then consideration as to the safety of the occupants of the room should be given.
