A = Fireplace door, manual closure
• Open operation may be possible
• Multiple use of chimney prohibited
We also recommend operating Type A devices with closed viewing panes.
This improves the utilization of the wood energy and increased operational
safety. When the fireplace door is open, air movement or weak/irregular
chimney draft may quickly cause soot or odors to permeate the room. Valid
for the following devices: multiple use of the chimney and open operation is
prohibited for Type A with manually closing fireplace door!

A1 = Fireplace door, automatic closure
• Closed operation
• Multiple use of chimney possible
For Type A1, the fireplace door must always be locked in order to prevent
combustion gas leakage (except when loading/unloading).
These fireplace inserts have automatically closing fireplace doors so that
the doors are only opened when the fireplace has to be serviced (removing
ashes, re-supplying with fuel, etc.). For this fireplace insert, multiple use
of the chimney, etc., is possible. Modifying the closing mechanism of Type
A1 is prohibited for safety reasons, and would render the guarantee and
operating permit invalid. The guarantee and operating permit would also
be rendered invalid if the customer modified the technology of any other
area of the fireplace insert. You should discuss the required type with your
customer or with the local building code inspector before ordering it.
1.2. INSTALLATION STEPS
1. The feet are included with the device for transport purposes.
2. Before unscrewing the locking screw for the counterweights (transport
security for liftable fireplace inserts), carefully place the device on its
„back" so you can attach the feet.
3. As required, use the clamp included to attach the safety valve lugs to the
adapter in the required position at this time.
4. The fireplace has to stand perfectly plumb-vertical and horizontal.
5. A horizontal connection to the chimney is possible by rotating the flue
gas dome. To do this, open the clamp, put the flue gas dome in position
and clamp it in place again.
2. BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR SETTING
UP AN OPEN FIREPLACE
Before installing the fireplace insert, you have to make sure that the air
controls function perfectly and make them function if they do not. Consult
the local building code inspector responsible as to whether the chimney and
combustion air intake are suitable before beginning installation. Note and
apply DIN 18160 and DIN 18896. Apply the relevant standards in DIN EN
13229 as well. Every open fireplace requires its own chimney. Multiple use
is only permitted when the unit is to be operated closed (Type A1).
Perform the chimney calculation as per DIN 4705 T1, T2 or EN 13384-1
with the value sets specified in these instructions. The convection sheath
in stock is not required for tiled fireplaces. Set up the combustion system
according to the professional tile fireplace and ventilation engineer guide-
lines („TROL-Richtlinien für den Bau von Kachelöfen," available from Central
Association for Sanitation, Heating and Air-conditioning (ZVSHK), Rathausal-
lee 5, 53729 St. Augustin, Germany).
