INSTALLATION NOTICE
Preparation
– Arrangements
It is important to check the fireplace upon receipt and to ensure the absence of any damage
during transport.
Dimensions of the recess
The recess, i.e. the volume around the fireplace, has to contain the appliance while providing
an additional space of at least 5 mm (on the left and right sides, and above the fireplace) in
order to accommodate expansion. It is forbidden to macerate against and on the fireplace.
Ventilation around the fireplace
It is advised to ventilate the recess with an air inlet in the base and air outlet at the top in
order to reduce the temperature of the walls and to recover the temperature in your home.
Insulation of the fireplace
The materials used must be non-inflammable. The temperature of smoke to the chimney
being able to reach 300° to 400°, this one could cause a combustion of not isolated
combustible materials. Provide high-temperature insulation around the fireplace to protect
certain materials. In this case we advise protecting the back, the sides and the top of the
appliance. If no insulation has been provided, it is recommended keeping a distance of 35 cm
from inflammable materials and 15 cm from non-inflammable materials and to ventilate the
recess.
Your installer can advise you regarding the protection to be provided. Still with regard to
protection, your installer can also provide a floor plate in front of the insert in order to guard
against the ejection of embers.
Fireplace base
We recommend placing the fireplace on a solid, flat surface made of non-combustible
material, with sufficient strength to support the weight of the fireplace and the chimney flue.
Radiation from the fireplace
The fireplace emits heat by radiation through the window and by air convection. It is thus
essential to provide non-inflammable materials in the distribution zone.
