− the internal cross section of the flue, the material it is made of, the balance of the cross section, to make sure
there are no barriers and obstacles in the flue.
− the height and vertical flue extension,
− the altitude of the place of mounting, that is, the place of installation of the stove,
− the existence and convenience of the protective cover of the flue resistant to wind activity,
− the possibility of providing suction of external air and the size of the required opening,
− the possibility for simultaneous use of the stove that should be mounted with the remaining equipment that
already exists in that place.
If the results of all checks are positive, then mounting, that is, installation of the stove may follow. Make sure to
adhere to the instructions which are given by the stove manufacturer, as well as the standards for fire-protection
and the foreseen safety standards.
Once the installation is finished, the system must be put into trial operation for not less than 30 minutes in order to
check all gaskets i.e. all system seals.
Once the installation and the important details are finished, the installer must provide the following to the clients:
− Instruction manual for use and maintenance issued by the stove manufacturer (if such instruction manual was not
delivered with the stove),
− the documentation necessary for compliance with the existing standards.
3.0 MOUNTING - INSTALLATION OF THE STOVE
The user assumes full responsibility for works performed at the place of installation.
Before commissioning the stove, the installer must fulfill all legal safety standards, and particularly:
− to check whether the placement of the stove corresponds to the local, national and European regulations,
− to respond to the demands which are given in this document,
− to make sure that the placement of the flue pipe and air suction correspond to the type of installed stove,
- not to make i.e. not to establish electrical connections by using temporary and/or non-insulated electrical cables,
- to check the efficiency of the grounding of the electricity system,
- always to use personal protective equipment and all protection assets which are stipulated by the valid local
regulations,
- always to provide enough servicing space required for any type of maintenance and repair of the stove
3.1 PLACEMENT OF THE STOVE
We advise you to unpack the stove one it arrives at its location where it will be installed.
The stove stands on plastic feet with cast bolts M10 (pieces 4) which are screwed into the stove base. On the bolts
there are screws M10mm up to the plastic part. The feet are also screwed to the end, to the base of the stove. After
unpacking the stove, once you bring it to the spot where it will be placed, it is necessary to unscrew all feet, so that
he total height from the floor to the stove base is obtained, that is, the feet protrude from the stove base for about
25mm. After you finish the leveling of the stove which should stand horizontally with nuts that you screw with the
wrench 17 and which should pass through the stove base, simultaneously tighten the nuts by holding the plastic
part of the feet. The height of about 25mm from the floor to the stove base is necessary for air circulation and better
cooling of the stove. In this manner you protect the stove from overheating and you are extending its lifetime.
If the adjacent (surrounding) wall and/or floor are made of material which
is not thermally resistant
, then you
should use an appropriate protection whereby you will use a non-burning insulation material.
Always make sure to leave safe distance (about 35/40 cm) between the stove and the furniture, kitchen appliances
etc. In order to protect the floor, if it is made of flammable material, we propose that you put a metal panel with a
thickness of 3 to 4 mm on the floor under the stove, which will pass 30 cm in front of the front side of the stove.
The stove must be at a distance of at least 25cm from the surrounding walls.
Always leave at least 15 cm
between the back part of the stove and the wall to enable proper circulation of air, that is, to enable proper air flow
in that part.
If the stove is placed in a kitchen with a grate for air extraction or if it is placed in a room, that is, rooms with solid
fuel thermal generators (such as wood stoves), always make sure that the amount of inlet air (in the kitchen or in
the room) is sufficient to provide safe operation of the stove.
If the channel for smoke outlet should pass through the ceiling, it should be properly thermally insulated by using
insulation from a non-burning insulation material. Once the stove is placed to its position, it should be leveled by
using adjustable feet.
DANGER
The reinforcement of the smoke outlet MUST NOT be connected, that is, linked:
− to the flue pipe which is used by some other thermal generator (boilers, stove, fire-places, ovens etc.)
− to a system for air extraction (grates, ventilation openings etc.), even if the system is inserted in the flue outlet.
DANGER
It is forbidden to install shut-off valves for air flow (draft) (flaps, valves that can prevent air flow, that is, to disable
draft).
