of national standard been respected. The stove can not be connected to a joint air hole together with a gas appliance.
4.3. Instructions for installation and setting up the flue gas ducting
Connect the outlet neck with the chimney in the shortest possible way so the length of flue gas ducting is maximum 1,5 m. Join the flue gas pipes and elbow-pipe
firmly with an overlap of min. 50mm and make sure that the joints are set up in direction of flue gas flow. Furnish the input hole into the chimney with a metal
shrunk ring of corresponding diameter. The flue gas pipe should rise under the angle of aprox.10°.
4.4. Installation (setup) of the stove in space (room)
Before installation of the fire stove, it is necessary to check on bearing capacity of the floor (ceiling) if it fulfils the conditions of bearing for the respective type of
stove in dependence on its weight. The stove must be installed on heat-insulation fireproof ground-sheet, which should overlap the ground-projection of the stove
on sides and behind at least by 100 mm and in front by 300mm. If a metal ground-sheet is used, it should be min. 2 mm thick. For illustration have a look at the
attachment No. 1.
Caution: in order to have the possibility to clean the appliance, it is necessary to leave sufficient space for access to the flue gas pipes and chimney.
4.5. Installation of a wall-mounted wood stove
The installation of the wall-mounted wood stove is performed by first mounting the hanging elements (see attachment). The fastening of the hanging elements
needs to be rated for a weight of at least 200 kg - in the case where a flue pipe is used as a chimney, this increase in weight must be taken into account. The
installation of a wood stove on a wall must be assessed by an expert who will assess the load bearing capacity of the masonry so as to prevent it from coming loose.
Furthermore, it is necessary to meet sufficient fire safety requirements for the wall on which the wood stove will be suspended.
In the event that the wood stove is mounted on a brick wall or on a wall from non-combustible materials, there is no prescribed minimum clearance between the
wood stove and the wall.
Attention: In the event that an external air supply is connected to the wood stove, it is necessary to first prepare a sufficiently large hole for the air supply. To improve
handling, we recommend also making a hole above the external air supply outlet to enable the wood stove to be easily lifted.
5. SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
5.1. First time setting the fire stove into service
Before setting the stove into service for the first time, it is necessary to remove eventual labels from the glass, door, accessory parts in ashtray, resp. from the fireplace,
this applies also to eventual shipping safety. Check up, according to the picture on the technical document, if the screens freely laid for drought direction, vermiculite
plates and the barrier are placed correctly (it is possible that during the transport or installation of the stove they slided into wrong position). If you may find any
defect of setup, set it into the right position, otherwise the correct functionality of the heating unit might be at risk.
The surface coat on the wood stove is from a heat-resistant two-component paint which gets hardened after temporary softening at the first service operation. At
the softening phase, there is an enhanced risk of damage on the paint by hand or some object. With the first use of the stove, it is advised to kindle the fuel with
small flames, with smaller quantity of fuel at a lower temperature. All the materials must get used to the heat burden. With a careful kindling up you can prevent
eventual occurrence of cracks in vermiculite plates, damage on the paint and material deformation of the stove construction. Possible odour at the paint hardening
shall disappear soon – we advise to ventilate the room intensively, preferable with an air drought.
If there are any pets of birds in the room, relocate them to some other place for a temporary period of time.
5.2. Kindling and heating
For easy kindling, at first put on the bottom of the fireplace resp. on the grate, 2 or 3 small wooden chunks, on them paper or approved fire-lighters, then some
brushwood or wooden chips, small pieces of wood and at the end thicker chunks. Load the fuel in a good quantity (aprox. up to 2/3 of the height of the side vermi-
culite lining). With loading bigger quantity of fuel you will ensure sufficient time of burning in order to warm up the chimney and its correct functionality. Open the
regulator of the primary air at maximum. Sometimes, it is advised to regulate also inlet of secondary air for better kindling. After the kindling, the door of fireplace
must be closed. As soon as the fuel gets burned through the use of the regulators of air inlets, you may set up calm, rather damped combustion. For setting up the
flames and combustion you can follow the provisions indicated in the technical document of the chart. No.1
Caution: Before every heating it is necessary to check up if the grate is not sooted, and remove the excessive ash with ash-hook.
The door to the fireplace (combustion chamber) must be always closed, with an exception of setting the stove into the service, loading with fuels and removal of ash.
After each longer discontinuation of the service operation of the stove, it is necessary to check up the throughput and cleanness of the flue gas ducting, chimney
and the combustion chamber of the stove before its repeated kindling.
5.3. Fuel loading
In order to prevent the release of flue gases into the room at loading we advise you to: fully open the primary air regulator approximately 5 - 10 seconds before
opening the door to the fireplace, then wait few seconds for suction of the flue gases into the chimney and then you can fully open the door. After opening the
stoking door, it is always necessary to be careful; there is a risk of a firebrand to fall out. After loading the stove you can close the door. As soon as the fuel gets
burned (without sooty flames) put the regulator into the original position (eventually close it). When loading the stove, make sure that the fuel does not exceed the
level of the fside vermiculite lining work in the combustion chamber. The quantity of stoked fuel should correspond to informative consumption per hour for a given
heating unit (see the technical document). When overheated, there is a risk of permanent damage of the stove.
Caution: You can prevent the excessive release of the flue gases into the room by loading the stove after the fuel is burned out to a griddle-hot base.
5.4. External inlet of combustion air
It is necessary to ensure sufficient quantity of fresh air for the combustion process. At wood burning, the stove consumes up to 15m3 of fresh air per hour. New
houses are rather more insulated from external ambient (windows of plastics). Other difficulties can be caused by air suction units or other thermal appliances which
are in service in the room or space together with the stove.
With this, the quality of the combustion process is particularly lowered along with sooting of flue gas pipes, and at stoking process the smoke might be released into
the room. You can ensure sufficient air inlet by opened windows or door to next, better ventilated room. Preferably, at the installation of the stove you are advised
to ensure a ventilation air inlet with regulation grid which is secured against clogging.
5.5. Operation during transition period of time and at unfavourable climatic conditions
In the transition period, resp. at higher external temperatures above 15°C, in rainy and wet days, at strong gust wind, according to the actual circumstances the
draught in the chimney (stove) can be deteriorate, so the flue gases are not fully exhausted. Therefore it is advised that in such period the stove is in service at
minimum fuel loading in order to improve the combustion and draught in chimney by opening the air inlets.
