Choosing Your Fire
You have decided upon the style and design of the fireplace that best suits your needs and now its time to choose your fire.
The efficiency of your fire may play a huge factor in the decision making process so we feel it is important to explain the differences of efficiency and what that means in terms of energy and environmental costs.

Gas Fires - Gas fires are similar to gas boilers in that they must be fitted by appropriately qualified and registered installers (GAS SAFE – formerly known as CORGI) and must be serviced regularly by a suitably qualified and registered person.

CLASS 1Commonly in older houses, earlier than 1960. The Class 1 chimney is identifiable by 7” (180mm) or greater diameter flue. The existing chimney must be structurally sound, please check before the installation of a new fireplace.
CLASS 2Either an older house where the existing chimney has been lined by a proprietary steel flue or a newer house with a steel flue built in. This chimney type is identifiable by a 5” (130 mm) diameter flue and a steel flue terminal.
PRE-CAST FLUEModern houses generally later than 1960 often have a pre-cast concrete chimney system, identifiable by a rectangular box section flue and a terminal, as illustrated in the picture.
NO CHIMNEY Modern houses often have no chimney. You can use a modern decorative electric fire, either with no heat for aesthetics or an efficient fire with up to 2kW heat output.

Agean LimestoneLimestoneisasedimentaryrockbuiltupover60millionyearsduring the Jurassic era of the carboniferous age. Made up of tiny organisms with whisps of plant life and some larger crustaceans occasionally intermingling at the sea bed it is easy to imagine how the fossil patterns build up in this stone. No natural products can present a completely consistent finish, so we can guarantee that each fireplace is unique. We make as much effort as is economically sensible by limiting darker fossils to the less obtrusive areas of the fireplace(sidesoflegs)andlimitthemtobeingnolargerthanaUKfive penny piece on the front facing areas of the fireplace. Fossils that are of a similar colour to the general background matrix will appear anywhereonthefireplace.Smallholes(vents),lightveinsandgrainsare features of the limestone and are also normally found in your fireplace.

Portuguese LimestoneThis is natural stone, cut straight from the earth. The stone is sedimentary limestone formed over 50 million years ago. The characteristic darker veins on the light background, intermingled with fossils of plants and animal life all add to the beauty and individuality of this great material.

Focus on Quality
All cast iron products are manufactured in ISO 9002 accredited manufacturing facilities.
All the gas fires we supply are tested in accordance with CE requirements and are CE marked.
Due to the manufacturing processes all measurements are approximate and may vary slightly so allow for a tolerance of plus or minus 12mm.
In order to achieve some of the colour options, we plate the products using a variety of manufacturing processes. When we state that a product is “Antique Brass finish” or “Chrome finish” there is no intention to mislead. The products are not brass or chrome respectively, they are simply plated to give that effect.
MICROMARBLE products are not suitable for solid fuel applications.
The colours shown in the brochures are as accurate as possible, but if the colour you require is critical then please consult your retailer before basing all your decisions on the colours shown here.
Your home may have a chimney type which will allow you to choose any of the fireplaces shown in the brochures. However, please consult the selection charts in the brochures and if you are not clear please consult your HETAS or Gas Safe (Board Gais in ROI) registered installer or your retailer.
Gas fires with a gas input of 6.9kW or less do not normally require air vents, there are some circumstances where vents may be required. This is determined by your installer carrying out a spillage test during the commissioning process. If your chosen fire has a gas input greater than 6.9kW then a vent will be required. Please ask your retailer for further information.
There are occasions when designs, or products are altered or discontinued without prior notice (a reserved right), so if you are about to set your heart on a particular fireplace, please consult your retailer before making that final commitment.
Reassurance before you commit to the installation of your Capital Fireplace Suite.
It is a major project to have a new fireplace installed and it is good practice to try and prepare yourself as well as possible.
All installations must be carried out in accordance with the requirements set out in the Building Regulation documents, in particular, Approved Document J. There are independent bodies which have been approved to carry out installations in accordance with these regulations. For gas installations the most recognised independent body is Gas Safe (Board Gais in ROI) and for solid fuel installations it is HETAS. Please confirm with your retailer that your new fireplace will be installed appropriately. If you have your new fireplace fitted by a Gas Safe (Board Gais in ROI) or HETAS registered fitter you will be given a certificate stating that your installation has been carried out in accordance with the Building Regulations. If you do not have one of these certificates then you will have to arrange for your local Building Control Officer to inspect your installation and approve it.
Whilst there appear to be no definitive regulations available, a sufficient gap must be provided around a Firebasket when placed inside the fire chamber. This is essential because air must be able to flow into the fire in order for the fuel to burn effectively; the flue and fire chamber surfaces must be kept cool to avoid heat damage from the fire and where applicable gas controls need to be freely accessible.
Your Capital fireplace is made up of a number of different components and it is important to ensure that your installer not only meets the requirements above, but that he also has the necessary experience to fit ALL those components. Therefore we strongly advice against purchasing fireplace components directly from the internet.
In the unlikely event that there is a defect in any of the products shown in this brochure, then a replacement will be supplied without hesitation. Of course, this requires the products to be fully inspected prior to installation as no responsibility for re-fitting or redecoration can be accepted if defective products have been installed. In this case and in the case of accidental damage after installation, in-situ repairs can be made by specialists, subject to prior agreement of terms with your retailer.
A focus on service for your peace of mind
Limestone Suites Stone is naturally porous, so all visual surfaces have been pre-sealed to help protect the surface from staining. Avoid spillages of coloured liquids such as fruit juices and red wine. In the event of an accident, use a specialist cleaning and resealing kit, following the instructions given by the manufacturer of the kit. Where chipping has occurred, use a fine wet and dry sand paper to blend out as necessary
Micromarble Suites Avoid spillages of strong coloured solutions and citrus juices as the acid may etch the surface. To maintain, occasionally wipe over with a solution of general household cleaner and buff with a soft dry cloth. Do not use any bleach or abrasive cleaning agents as these will scuff or dull the shine.
Gas FiresA gas fire is a technical piece of equipment and, just like a gas boiler needs regular servicing. Please ensure that you have your gas fire serviced regularly by a Gas Safe (Board Gais in ROI) registered installer.
This will help you enjoy safe and trouble free enjoyment of your fireplace for years to come and may be a requirement of the Government’s Home Information Pack.
