MAINTENANCE
Any glass components of your decoflame
®
fireplace are made of tempered heat-resistant glass. Those glass parts as
well as any metal parts which are exposed to the heat of the fire might slightly change colour or structure. This is to be
considered normal wear and tear and does not constitute a product flaw or fault.
Decoflame recommends that you clean all parts of your fireplace frequently with a lint-free cloth or kitchen paper
towel and a non-abrasive detergent, some bioethanol or another alcohol-based product. Alternatively you can use
little sponge that you find packaged together with your standard burner/s in order to brush up the surface of your
burner. For polished steel surfaces, only use a soft and clean cloth as the surfaces will easily be scratched by paper
towels.
INSTALLATION
Please refer and adhere to the detailed installation guide on your technical drawing which has been
generated for your specific custom-made decoflame® fireplace. You will find all dimensions and step-by-
step installation instructions there. It is advisable to install your decoflame® fireplace only once all
decoration work in the room has been finished.
If your decoflame
®
fireplace came with glass screens, you must fit them and operate the fireplace
exclusively with fitted glass screens.
According to
SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden
, walls surrounding the built-in bioethanol fireplace must be
covered with non-inflammable materials like fibre plaster boards (e.g. Fermacell, GypRock Fireline) or bricks. We
recommend that you adhere to these regulations set by SP.
The supports for securing the fireplace must be made of sturdy non-inflammable materials like metal, concrete or
brick. The supports must be perfectly in level.
If you have the slightest doubt of how to install the fireplace and which screws to use for your type of wall, you should
contact a skilled craftsman who is able to carry out the installation correctly.
When installing your decoflame
®
built
-in
fireplace you will need:
Power drill/Screwdriver
Drill/bit (suitable for the type of material to which you wish to fix the top and bottom plates of your fireplace)
Spirit level
Tape measure
Screws (at least Ø 5mm, suitable for the type of wall)
Wall plugs or expansion bolts (suitable for the type of wall)
General Installation Guidelines “Single Sided Custom-made Fireplace”
The wall cut-out is made at least 20mm deeper than the depth of the fireplace to
ensure sufficient air flow and cooling of the fireplace (see 7.1). Furthermore, it is
essential to maintain a 5mm gap all the way around the fireplace (Cut-out = Fireplace
Dime 10mm)
This gap must not be sealed
.
As the edges of the cut-out remain visible it is important that they are done to the
highest possible finish. All four corners of the cut out must have exactly a 90 degree
angle.
