• At the time of placing the stove, the chimney flue
must be clean, leak-proof and without obstructions,
and must have a diameter of 150 mm.
• Any bends in the flue tube must not exceed 45
degrees.
• Ensure that the chimney tube can discharge the flue
gases adequately, properly and safely.
• The values for calculating the chimney tube is given
in the section on Technical Information, page 22.
Fire Safety
For reasons of fire safety is it important to observe the
instructions below before installing the stove.
1. If the floor around the stove is made of combustible
material, you must use a floor slab.
The floor slab must measure at least:
- 50 cm from the stove on the front side of the door
- 30 cm from the stove on the sides of the door.
2. Keep at least a distance of 80 cm between the stove
and combustible objects such as curtains, wooden
objects (cupboards and paintings) and glass objects.
Keep the same distance from the flue tube.
3. Wooden construction parts within the radiation range
of the stove (80 cm from the exterior of the stove) must
be covered with fireproof material.
4. If the flue tube goes through a ceiling and/or roof
that consist of flammable materials, the ceiling and
the roof must be covered with fireproof materials all
around (about 80 cm). Pay also attention to joisted
floor layers and any electric wiring.
5. Keep a distance of at least 50 cm (in all directions)
between the stove and supporting steel construction
parts.
6. Shield off all combustible materials within a radius of
80 cm from the stove openings with non-combustible
materials.
7. Never cover the chimney breast with combustible
material (e.g. paper covering).
8. The wall behind the stove must consist of, or be
insulated with, fire-proof materials. The insulation
material must resist a temperature of 700 °C and
have a density of 80 kg/m3. Please see for insulation
materials table page 26).
9. Avoid heat transmission when placing the stove. Heat
transmission of a burning stove can penetrate the wall
and even cause fire damage on the other side of the
wall. Prevention is better than cure.
Installation
The Véro is tested in accordance with the international
EN 13240 standardization, and has an extra additional
standardization for optimally environment-friendly
heating devices related to flue gases (Section 15a B-Vg.
Des BmfWA). The stove can be connected to a flue tube
to which several stoves are connected. The flue tube has
a diameter of 150 mm.
Supply of combustion air
The stove must have enough supply of fresh combustion
air. If necessary, make an extra air supply opening as
close to the stove as possible to avoid draught. An extra
opening for air supply is always required if:
• the space has a heat recovery system.
• the space has a central exhaust system.
• there is a cooker hood in the same space.
The air supply opening must be closable if it goes through
a fire-resistant wall. When there are several combustion
devices in the same space there must be enough air
openings to guarantee proper combustion.
Connecting the stove
The Véro is a heavy stove. The standing version weighs
160 kg, including the 2-metre flue gas tube. Check
whether the floor on which the stove is placed, or the
wall to which the stove is fixed, can carry this weight
without problem. You must follow the directions given
in de previous chapter on ‘Preparation” before installing
the stove. Please mind your back and the floor during
installation!
Mounting the standing model:
1. Check the packing. If you detect any visible dam-
age, please notify the supplier.
2. You will have 2 different boxes for the standing
model (1 box for the stove, and 1 box for the base).
3. Take the stove from the box.
4. Turn the stove carefully on its backside (put some-
thing underneath to protect the floor)
