2.3 PREPARATION
The heater can be installed in a range of positions in relation to the fireplace:
•
The heater can be installed immediately behind the fireplace. In this case, the back
of the fireplace is the front of the heater
•
The heater can be installed further behind the fireplace. For example, 8 cm if the
mantle or column is made of Durox blocks or stones. The rear of the fireplace is 8
cm from the front of the heater. This means that you must order wider filler pieces
in order to bring the rear of the fireplace or uprights flush with the heater
•
The heater can be installed in the fireplace. In this case, it is important to know
how far inside the fireplace the heater is installed, since different filler pieces will
be needed. The location of the heater is in turn dependent upon the location of this
heater's smoke outlet or flue and the thickness of the mantle
•
When installing the natural stone fireplace, always make sure that the base is level
(preferably, perfectly horizontal), clean and, above all, stable.
•
Carefully remove the fireplace from the wooden crate in which it is delivered.
•
Check that all the parts supplied in the crate are complete and undamaged. Lay
them out in a safe place, so that you have a clear idea of what the various parts
are.
•
As far as possible, measure the dimensions using the drawing of the fireplace (see
Appendices).
•
Smooth the floor using a suitable screed. Be careful with limestone fireplaces, you
may have to seal the hearth or lay plastic sheet underneath to reduce the risk of
staining. Grey cement will stain the natural stone, use only white cement. When
using Knauff (for example, to insert a plate), blistering may occur in some dark
types of natural stone. An alternative is to apply a decelerator to the plaster.
•
With a parquet floor, it is advisable to cut away the parquet to the size of the
hearth, less 2 cm (left, right and front). If the parquet has not yet been fitted, you
can place the hearth above it, so that the parquet can be fitted approximately 2
cm underneath.
•
We recommend that you first conduct a 'dry run' of the fireplace assembly. Among
other things, this will allow you to see how the various parts fit together.
•
It is also recommended that you fit the fireplace first and then, if necessary,
plaster around it.
•
If necessary, you can smooth out the fireplace components using stainless steel
rings.
