Ventilation
Correct ventilation prevents damaging overheating
of the gas control block and its electronics and also
limits the temperature of the convection air. Use
the optional Faber ventilation grids (article number
A9296400) or a similar alternative with a minimum
free passage of 200cm² per grid, in the space above
the fire, when building the false chimney. Within
the false chimney, an horizontal screen plate, made
of non-combustible material, must be installed just
above the ventilation openings. (see “A” in fig. 1.0 ,
1.1 or 1.2).
Installation and finishing

Please note!

Take into account a minimum distance of
2mm due to expansion of the fireplace.
See fig. 2.7.

Take into account the thickness of any
finishing layer!
Method I: installation WITH cover strip (fig. 2.1)
The following points are of interest (fig. 2.2 and
2.3):
I = built-in frame
J = distance profiles

Built the false chimney against the built-in
frame “I” and distance profiles “J”.

Do not built the false chimney (underneath
the appliance) higher than the top of the
distance profile “J” (fig. 2.3)
Method II: installation WITHOUT cover strip
(fig. 2.4)

Please note!
At the MatriX front glass only versions, the
cover strip is fixed by screws, remove those
first! (fig. 2.5).
The following points are of interest (fig. 2.6):
K = built-in frame
L = distance profiles
M = glass supports
N = top edge of the combustion chamber

Remove all distance profiles “L”.

Please note!
Make sure that the screws of the front distance
profile “L” will be replaced, in order to ensure
the air tightness of the appliance.

For the height of the plateau, see point “N”
(fig. 2.6 and 2.7).

Take into account a minimum distance of
2mm between plateau and glass support
“M” due to expansion of the fireplace.
(fig. 2.7).
