4.1. Weather conditions
For the safe operation of the fireplace, it must be ensured that the chimney is able to build up the necessary flue draft.
Particular attention needs to be paid to this during the transition period (e.g. autumn and spring) or during poor
weather conditions (e.g. strong wind, fog etc.).
4.2. Chimney flue draft at rated heat output of the stove
min. flue draft
6 Pa
if the minimum flue draft is not reached, then it is not possible to
operate the fireplace properly and it will lead to increased
contamination of the burner and inspection window.
max. flue draft
15 Pa
if the maximum permitted flue draft is exceeded, this leads to
increased fuel consumption.
4.3. Connection to the chimney
For the connection to the chimney, gas-tight flue tubes should be used. Approved flex steel tubes
are also suitable. Please observe the national regulations.
The flue tube must be securely fitted on the flue gas spigot.
The flue gas tube must not be installed with a drop to the chimney.
It is also essential to ensure that the flue tube does not stick out into the open cross-section of the
chimney, which would interfere with the flue gases rising and prevent the optimal cleaning of the
chimney.
The use of wall lagging is recommended for the insertion into the chimney (see Figure 3).
Longer horizontal flue gas connections reduce the necessary flue draft.
All openings leading into the same chimney, such as stove and chimney cleaning apertures, must
be closed.
4.3.1. Multiple use
The stove is not approved for multiple use.
5. Installation
5.1. Minimum gaps to flammable components:
When installing the stove, it is essential to observe the official fire protection regulations.
Please observe the national regulations to this effect.
As the minimum distances from flammable or temperature-sensitive materials (e.g. furniture, wallpaper,
wooden cladding) and from load-bearing walls, the specified gaps “at the back”, “on the sides” and in the “direction of
radiation forwards” must be maintained
according to the nameplate
.
Floor protection:
In case of flammable or temperature-sensitive floor coverings, the
appliance must be placed on a non-flammable base (see drawing).
Recommendation for floor protection:
A
30 cm – at the front
B
10 cm – at the sides
C
up to the back wall
