INSTALLATION MANUAL
Thank you for choosing your new RAIS or
ATTIKA product! This installation manu-
al will ensure that your fireplace insert is
installed correctly and that it will provide
you with comfort and pleasure for many
years to come.
IN GENERAL
It is important to correctly install the fire-
place insert out of consideration for both
the environment and personal safety.
The installation of the stove must com-
ply with all local rules and regulations,
including those that refer to national and
European standards. A certified chimney
sweeper should be contacted before the
installation is started.
No unauthorised alterations may be
made to the fireplace insert.
GENERAL INSTALLATION REQUIRE-
MENTS
Before the fireplace insert may be put to
use, the installation must be reported to
your local chimney sweeper.
There must be a plentiful supply of fresh
air in the installation room to ensure
good combustion – if required, through
an Air-System connection. NB: Any me-
chanical air extraction, for example a
cooker hood, can minimise the supply of
air.
The wood-burning stove has an air con-
sumption of at least 18 m3/h.
The floor structure must be able to sup-
port the weight of the wood-burning
stove and a chimney. If the existing floor
structure does not meet this require-
ment, suitable measures must be taken
(e.g. installation of a load distribution
plate). Seek advice from a building ex-
pert.
If the wood-burning stove is to be in-
stalled on a flammable floor, national
and
local regulations must be complied with,
including for the size of the non-flamma-
ble plate, which must cover the floor in
front of the wood-burning stove to pro-
tect the floor from any embers that fall
out of the stove.
The fireplace insert must be positioned at
a safe distance from flammable material.
Due to risk of fire, flammable items (e.g.
furniture) may not be positioned closer
to the fireplace insert than the closest
permitted distance stated in the instal-
lation section. When deciding where to
install your RAIS/ATTIKA fireplace insert,
you should think about being able to
heat other rooms in the home, so you
get the most out of your new fireplace
insert.
After receiving your fireplace insert,
please check it for any defects.
CHIMNEY
The chimney must be tall enough to
ensure correct draught conditions,
i.e. -14 to -18 pascal. If the recom-
mended chimney draught cannot
be achieved, problems from smoke
escaping from the door may arise
when lighting the fire. We recommend
adapting the chimney to suit the flue
outlet connector. The flue outlet connec-
tor is 150 mm in diameter.
If the draught is excessive, it is recom-
mended that you equip the chimney
with a regulating damper. If a regulating
damper is fitted, you must ensure that
there is a free flow area of at least 20
cm² at the closed regulating damper.
Remember that there must be unob-
structed access to the access door on the
chimney.
