SOURCE LOCATION
The floor, on which the fireplace will be located, must have sufficient load ‐ bearing capacity. The
fireplace insert should only be installed by professionals. Fireplace construction is detailed in CSN 73 4230.
Always install the fireplace to leave at least 5 cm between the wall and the back and side walls of
fireplace insert sheathing. These spaces are necessary to allow cooling air to circulate and thus prevent
overheating of the surrounding construction. Leave theses spaces clear at both the top and bottom. Create
vents on the bottom of the fireplace (under the insert) to allow intake of cold convective air ‐ at least 150
cm². In the upper most part of the fireplace extension, create vents for the outlet of heated convective air.
The total diameter of the vent opening must be at least 150 cm². If the fireplace is constructed on a
flammable floor, this floor needs to be removed or insulated to ensure its temperature during fireplace
operation does not exceed 50°C. The floor at the fireplace installation site and up to 800 mm in front of,
and 400 mm to the side of the fireplace, must be made of non ‐ flammable material. The distance is
measured from the closer edge of the fireplace. Make sure that reasonable access for cleaning the
appliance, smoke flue and chimney is provided.
No structural changes or modifications of the appliance are permitted. All local regulations,
including regulations relating to national and European norms, must be observed during installation. You
should order a professional project before construction.

READINESS AT THE INSTALLATION SITE
a) Heating section
Aftercooling loop:
The aftercooling loop is designed and tested to fully protect the fireplace insert exchanger from
overheating. Connect a cold water intake with a temperature of up to 15°C and minimum constant pressure
of 2 bar to the connection couplings. Please keep in mind that the water intake must be independent of
power outage (preferably a water supply pipeline). You can use both flanges of the aftercooling loop for
intake and output. Heated water from the aftercooling loop is emptied into the sewer system. The
maximum working overpressure is given by the aftercooling valve used.
Aftercooling valve:
Install the recommended aftercooling valve on the intake of the aftercooling loop. Install a filter to
catch any impurities on the aftercooling input valve. Insert the valve heat sensor into one of the sinks.
Automatic air ‐ outlet valve
The air ‐ outlet valve is installed into the coupling on the upper front side of the exchanger. Its
maximum permitted working temperature is 110°C. The location of ventilation openings in the upper part
of the fireplace construction should therefore be designed with regard to this fact.
