figure 10: Kalfire w corner and 3-sided models: checking the lifting door
4 Preparations
4.1 Checking the wood-burning fireplace
before installing the fireplace, check that the floor’s load-bearing
capacity is sufficient to support the weight of the fireplace (see
Table 5) and the intended surround. if this is not the case, the
necessary measures must be taken (e.g. distributing the pressure
points by using a form-retaining, fire-resistant plate).
4.1.1 Pre-installation check
Verification upon receipt
1. verification upon receipt of whether the supplied products
are complete and undamaged. report any defects directly
to Kalfire and/or the transporter (see 1.4) .
2. remove the transport security
- front and tunnel fireplaces: remove the corner pins with a
yellow sticker on the front from the convection casing.
- 3-sided fireplaces and room divider: see appendix b
- corner fireplace Kalfire w65/38C: see appendix C
- corner fireplace Kalfire w90/47C: see appendix d
3. Check the following components for proper functioning:
- raising and lowering the lifting door
- forward tilting action or sliding of door for cleaning
- secondary air regulation
- adjustment feet
- damper with control knob (accessory)
- possibly aeration valves (accessories)
4. Hand over the installation and user Manual to the user of
the fireplace.
5. Test the fresh air valve for proper operation. This valve is
located to the rear of the fireplace (at the corner fireplaces
on the side), behind the fresh air connection. when the
door is closed, the fresh air flows through the secondary
air regulation to the combustion chamber. when the door
is opened, the fresh air enters the room via the convection
casing and the outlet openings.
