INSTALLATION NOTICE
Preparation
– Arrangements
It is important to check the fireplace upon receipt and to ensure the absence of any damage
during transport.
Dimensions of the recess
The recess, i.e. the volume around the fireplace, has to contain the appliance while providing
an additional space of at least 5 mm (left, right, and above the fireplace) in order to
accommodate expansion. There must be no masonry against the fireplace.
Ventilation around the fireplace
It is necessary to ventilate the recess with an air inlet in the base and air outlet at the top in
order to reduce the temperature of the walls and to recover it in your home.
Insulation of the fireplace
The materials used must be non-inflammable. The temperature of smoke to the chimney being able
to reach 300° to 400°, this one could cause a combustion of not isolated combustible materials.
Provide high-temperature insulation around the fireplace to protect certain materials. In this case
we advise protecting the back, sides and top of the appliance. If no insulation has been provided, it
is recommended keeping a distance of 15 cm from inflammable materials and 15 cm from non-
inflammable materials.
Your installer can advise you regarding the protection to be provided. Still with regard to protection,
your installer can also provide a floor plate in front of the insert in order to guard against the ejection
of embers.
Fireplace base
We recommend placing the appliance on a solid flat surface with sufficient strength to
support the weight of the fireplace and the chimney flue. We also advise you to make the
appliance firmer with a wall in order to increase the stability of the fireplace.
Radiation from the fireplace
The fireplace emits heat by radiation through the window and by air convection. It is thus
essential to provide non-inflammable materials in the distribution zone.
