4.4.
POSITIONING
The FORMA WOOD closed fireplace can be positioned either in a corner
or on a wall. MCZ cladding can be used to personalise the fireplace or
built on site with materials able to withstand high temperatures.
The closed fireplaces are self-bearing units that simplify installation and
do not require any additional support.
MCZ provides four rotating wheels with the closed fireplace to make it
easier to move the unit to the place in which it is to be installed (
Figure
3).
Once the closed fireplace is in position the wheels must be lifted from
the floor and removed so that the unit is stable on the floor.
To do this, adjust the four feet already fitted on the closed fireplace.
Always assess the static conditions of the surface that will bear
the weight of the closed fireplace and always leave a minimum
5 cm air gap between the fireplace and the walls.
Dry fit the fire plane of the
cladding, leaving an opening of
1 cm
for the insulation.
(Figure 2)
If the appliance is installed near to flammable material adopt
some minimal safety measures (Figure 4):
A = 100 mm (distance from the side and rear walls)
B = 50 mm (insulating material)
C = 50 mm (height of the floor)
If the closed fireplace is positioned above a floor or
near to flammable walls we recommend that you use
suitable insulation.
The hot air outlets must be positioned at least
300 mm away from other materials (e.g. curtains).
