3. INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Note:
Since the appliance is a source of heat, circulation of air occurs. Therefore it is of importance that you do not use the appliance shortly after a renovation of the home. Because of the natural circulation of air, moist and volatile components from paint, building materials, carpet etc. will be attracted. These components can settle themselves down onto cold surfaces in the form of soot.
As on all heat producing appliances, soft furnishings such as blown vinyl wallpaper placed too near to the appliance may become scorched or discoloured. This should be born in mind when installing the appliance.
3.1 Builders opening and surround
The appliance can be installed in the following situations:
In a
Although the appliance is tested for installation without a hearth, the appliance must not stand on combustible materials or carpets. If the appliance is placed on a combustible floor then a fibrelux or similar heatproof board of 12 mm thickness should be placed under it. Any under floor vents or openings within the builders opening should be sealed off.
Do not place the lintel, surround or marble stone directly onto the appliance. If possible, apply a lintel made of cement or something similar.
Isolate the appliance with a ceramic blanket (25 mm). See also chapter 4: Installation instructions.
Preferred choice for insulation is unbound insulation wool (at 1000 °C gives no smell).
