Combustion air
Being the user of the stove you must take care of a sufficient combustion air supply. Sealed-up windows and doors may not allow a
sufficient combustion air supply or disturb the draught behaviour of your stove. Please ensure the additional supply of fresh
combustion air if necessary. For details please consult your specialist retailer. Make sure that the combustion air intakes are not
blocked!
Stove pipe connection
For your own safety stringent laws apply for connecting stove pipes to the chimney. Your professional dealer or distributor
knows these laws. Please have your certified retailer carry out the connection of your stove.
Floor load capacity and Hearth
Make sure that the load capacity of the supporting construction is sufficient to carry the weight of the entire unit, before the
heating unit is installed.
The hearth requirement is minimum 820mm deep x 1120mm wide x 9mm thick fibre cement sheet (Bellis board or similar, with
minimum of 300mm in front of 2 sides of glass.
Flue Connection to Heater
The flue collar fitted to the unit is 5” – Inner diameter is tapered from 137mm and outer diameter is 148mm.
The top flue connection requires either a 5” to 6” adaptor to fit within the top box, or the Austroflamm Flue damper (fits to the
outside of the flue collar (ensure the connection is sealed with fire cement on the inside).
If using the flue damper inside the top box, ensure the damper is set to 30 degrees from the horizontal (assuming a 4.6m
flue height from the hearth).
For rear connection, the rear flue blanking plate is swapped with the flue collar supplied on top of the firebox. Use the top
box with blanking cover to cover the unit. Using the 5’ to 6” adaptor into the flue collar, have holes drilled through the cast
flue collar into the stainless steel active so the flue is mechanically fixed, and seal with fire cement. Connect to a wall
penetration kit or a drop box with triple skin T-piece and flue as per normal with rear wall flue installation. See pics on page
8.
