• Their structure and materials enable non-combustible mounting walls not in need
of protection to be permanently exposed to temperatures above 85°C.
• Combustible mounting walls in need of protection (e.g. stud partition construction)
must be protected from temperatures above 85°C.
The mounting walls should be assessed before installing the stove. If the nature of the
mounting wall cannot be identified with certainty, a specialist (such as the chimney
sweep) should be consulted.
• According to DIN 4102-1, wallpaper used as a wall covering is not considered a
combustible building component and does not require any special precautions.
Please note that the underlying structure of wallpaper (e.g., stud partition construc-
tion) may well be combustible or in need of protection and the relevant precautions
must be taken.
• Please note that the minimum distances indicated from rear walls and side walls
need to be adapted for rotating stoves.
• It is important to observe the minimum distance from the chimney connecting piece
to combustible building components („2.7 Connecting pieces“ on page 22).
• There must be no combustible objects within a radius of 50 cm above the stove.
Floor coverings near the stove
Floors made from combustible materials in front of the combustion chamber door must
be protected by a covering of non-combustible materials. This covering should extend
at least 50 cm in front of the stove and at least 30 cm at each side (Figs. 12-14 point
D) (measuring from the combustion chamber door or viewing pane).
No combustible objects (furniture, curtains, decorations, etc.) may be placed within the
area of direct radiant heat of the combustion chamber door or inspection glass. That
distance can be reduced to 40 cm if a fire screen ventilated on both sides is placed
between the fireplace and any combustible objects.
Determining the radiation area
To determine the radiation area of the stove, place a measuring device (yard stick,
measuring tape) on the surface of the front pane and measure the central point of the
stove past the door pillar. There must be no combustible components or components
in need of protection in the resulting angle and within the side clearance.
Minimum distances from nearby building components
The distances indicated in the table below must be observed, according to your stove’s
viewing pane arrangement (see sketches below) and the nature of the mounting walls.
In the stove installation example shown in Fig.
12-14
if dimension B is observed and
dimension E measured on site is less than the value indicated, then it is not necessary
to allow for the radiant area with respect to the side walls. However, if the side wall
is longer than dimension E, it must be decided on site whether this wall needs to be
protected. The position of the radiant area can be altered if necessary by increasing
dimension A or dimension B. The handover inspection of your stove before commission-
ing is performed by the chimney sweep responsible. The chimney sweep can/should
also advise prior to installation about installation conditions on site, and can provide
advice on how to install the stove properly.
