Distance illustration (FIG 1)
*The illustration indicates the approximate centre height
of the recess for the flue. Consider possible inclination
of the flue prior to making perforating the chimney.
Distortions in floors and walls may also influence the
height, dry stack therefore the fireplace for accurate
height and positioning of the flue/chimney connection. If
a fresh air supply set (accessory) is connected through
the floor, mark where the hole should be.
Attention! Since the inner core is composed of
many layers the connection height may vary by up
to a few centimeters from installation to installation
Safety distances (FIG 2)
Ensure that the safety distances are complied with.
Firing Rhythm and Drying Procedure
The fireplace contains a lot of moisture that must be
released before it can be exposed to the recommended
firing rhythm as described below. In order to dry out
the fireplace, we recommend that it is heated up with
a small fire consisting of 0.5 to 1 kg kindling wood with
the flue damper and air vent left open. The bypass
damper is closed once the fire is well lit so that the hot
smoke circulates through all the ducts. Let the fire burn
out and maintain the air valve and flue damper open.
This procedure is repeated twice, not sooner than 24
hours after the first time. Should this drying procedure
not be followed there is a risk that the elements crack.
A heat-accumulating fireplace is designed to absorb
thermal energy during a relatively short period
of relatively intensive firing, and then release the
accumulated heat over a longer period of time. The
fireplace is designed to reach a surface temperature
of between 90 and 130 ºC during normal use. Heating
beyond the recommended pattern will result in a higher
surface temperature, which can cause discolouration
of the paint, as well as higher temperatures against
combustible walls than calculated.
For Salzburg M, we recommend a firing cycle with three
loads of each approximately 2 kg of dry firewood, one
hour in between, or when the wood is about to enter the
ember phase. When the last load has passed into the
ember phase with few embers left, the air vent and flue
damper are closed to prevent heat escaping through the
chimney. The bypass damper is opened in order give
the airflow the shortest route to the chimney.
Two heating cycles per day, with 8-12 hours between
each cycle, is sufficient to have a fireplace that stays
nice and warm throughout the day. Remember to open
the flue damper before using the fireplace again. The
bypass damper is normally only necessary to open
when lighting a fire when both the chimney and fireplace
are cold, but it should in any case be closed within 10-
15 minutes, as soon as the draught has picked up.
Due to the length of the smoke gas ducts, the fireplace
is heated up somewhat unevenly. After lighting a fire,
the front above the door and one of the sides will
heat up first. The heat will then be evened out after a
few hours of firing and when all the ducts have been
warmed up.
Assembly (FIG 3 - FIG 60)
FIG 3
The ventilated base plate (1) is placed on the floor. It
is important that the entire intended contact surface
(FIG 3A) is in actual contact with the floor. This can
be ensured by spreading a layer of tile adhesive or
thin mortar on the floor before the base plate is placed
against the floor. This is to ensure that the heavy
fireplace is not left sitting on any irregularities and to
ensure an even weight distribution of the fireplace. It is
also important to ensure that this plate is level in both
directions before proceeding with the installation.
Attention! The use of shims to level the base plate
is not recommended as the differences in tension
on the base plate can cause it to crack under the
weight of the product.
If a fresh air supply (not included) is connected through
the bottom plate, it is important to make a hole at the
location of the recess which is placed under the base
plate, before it is placed on any added adhesive or
mortar, and to adapt air inlet flue before continuing with
the installation.
Attention! If an air supply set is to be connected to
the fireplace through the base plate, then the hole
in the back surround (FIG 9) must be sealed of on
the inside with the supplied plug before the element
is lowered over the inner core.

of the base plate before the PowerStone element 3 is
placed on top. Glue in place the transit element (5) for
