Installation of the insert
The appliance must be installed in accordance with the applicable pro-visions of the building law.
The insert must be installed and assembled by qualified specialists.
5.5.1
To ensure the correct installation
the insert must be placed at a safe distance from any flammable materials (the walls or other surfaces
surrounding the insert may have to be secured);
the housing should provide easy access to adjustment and service handles (allow assembly and disassembly of
the insert without the need to demolish and damage it);
the surface on which the cassette will be placed should be flat, even, made of non-combustible material;
it is forbidden to install the cassette in a bedroom, bathroom or in a room with another heating device without
its own air intake;
CUBO cassettes are standalone devices and do not require any additional supports.
5.5.2

resistance

;
the housing should be made from non-flammable materials;
distance between the insulation materials and the insert should be at least 10 cm;
the cassette can be installed directly into the recess if the walls are of non-combustible materials and have
adequate thermal resistance;
during regular use, the housing of the fireplace extends (due to the heat), therefore there should be tiny gaps
between stone, marble or ceramic elements;
preferable insulation material should be resistant to temperatures over 500⁰C;
the housing cannot lean on the fireplace;
the thickness of the insulation depends on the thermal conductivity coefficient λ (the ability of a material to
conduct heat) and heat resistance of a given material;
