 It is advisable to clean the chimney at least
once a year.
In order to access the chimney for cleaning purposes,
observe the following instructions:
a) Remove the
instructions described in chapter "cleaning".
b) Once the deflection plate has been removed,
you will be able to access the chimney. Clean the
conduit using a special chimney brush with a weight
as described in fig. 1.
These steps must be performed whenever the device
has been unused for a long period of time to ensure
no blockage exists before lighting it.

 The joints of the pipes that form the chimney, in
the case of metal pipes, must be sealed with refractory
putty.

The female coupling of the pipes must face
upwards to avoid any possible creosote from leaking out.

External metal chimneys must be built with
special double insulated pipes for solid fuels.
2.2.5 Installation using existing chimneys.
When using existing chimneys, it is advisable to
place one or two metres of metal pipe inside the existing
chimney and ensure that the gap between the brickwork
chimney and the pipes has been sealed (see figure).
The inside section of the chimney must be perfectly
insulated so that it is capable of resisting the high
temperatures reached by the insert fireplace.
Insulation should be placed on the internal walls,
allowing air to flow around the insert fireplace. Never
place insulations around the insert fireplace; it may
be damaged if heat is unable to dissipate. The metal

Internal insulation must not prevent the passage of
air through the hood ventilation grilles.
Insulating fibre used inside must resist high
temperatures and must not produce any odour when
heated.
If the chimney should catch fire (an excessive
accumulation of creosote may catch fire), close all air
input to the device (primary and secondary) and even
close air input to the room where the device has been
installed. This will cause the flame to go out by
themselves.

Never let the full weight of the chimney lie on the
