2.4 Assembly of the Surround
•
Establish the central point of the fireplace and mark this on the backing wall.
•
Establish the distance between the heater and the backing wall.
•
If the backing wall is not level, you can fill it later.
•
Lay the hearth so that it is level in all directions (from front to rear and left to
right).
•
Install the heater in terms of its heating function (see instructions supplied with the
appliance).
•
Put the left- and right-hand uprights/sidepieces in position. These have already
been glued together. They should fit on the left- and right-hand side of the hearth.
The heater must be clear of the fireplace to allow for expansion and contraction
with heat. Any gaps can be sealed with a ceramic rope or similar.
•
Fill the space between the uprights and the backing wall with brickwork or
Promatec, to allow further assembly. The uprights may be attached to this
structure. The structure must also be able to absorb pressure at right angles onto
the backing wall. We therefore recommend a brickwork structure.
•
Saw the filler pieces to the right size. The size depends upon the way in which the
hearth is fitted in relation to the fireplace.
•
The components may be fastened together using acid-free silicone paste or two-
component marble adhesive. Silicone paste takes longer to set, and so gives you
more time to match the pieces exactly. It is also easier to remove (for example,
using fishing line), if the pieces need to be disassembled.
•
After this, you can fill the seams with the special coloured fitting kit.
•
Left-over filler pieces can be stored in the upper section.
•
Check that all the connections are gas-tight and test the operation of the
appliance.
•
Add the finishing touches to the fireplace.
2.5 Cleaning and maintenance
Clean the fireplace using a dry non-scratch cloth or a vacuum cleaner. Do not use cleaning
agents.
Be careful! The use of cleaning agents may cause discoloration of the stone. Also be
careful when placing vases or flower pots on the fireplace.
If you do wish to use a cleaning agent, consult your retailer first. Your retailer can advise
about special cleaners for natural stone.
