the chimney. Remember that the space above the fireplace insert should be sealed off with a horizontally
positioned non-flammable plate. This plate should be installed at least 85 cm below the ceiling. The space
under this plate (above the fireplace insert) should be ventilated as described on the previous page.
If the chimney goes directly down into the fireplace insert without sharp angles or significant bending, a wall
sleeve will usually not be needed. It is also important that there is no edge inside the chimney where soot
can collect.
2.3.2 Flue pipe installation in a large chimney
A chimney that is larger than the flue pipe can be sealed with fixed rockwool batts, that are trimmed so that
they adhere tightly around the flue pipe. The batts should be laid in 3 layers and spread with fireplace mortar
before they are pushed up into the chimney from below. The fireplace mortar will stiffen and fix the batts to
form a floor in the chimney.
2.3.3 If you do not have free access to the chimney and are using flexible piping
The flexible piping should be trimmed to the appropriate length. Please note that the flexible piping should
protrude approx. 10 cm into the pipe sleeve. Then a thin gasket should be placed between the flexible pipe
and the pipe sleeve in the chimney and the flexible pipe should be pushed securely into place in the pipe
sleeve. Adjust with the setting screws until it is in the correct horizontal position.
The fireplace insert can be connected to a chimney to which other heat sources are connected.
Important safety information:
•
The fireplace insert will become warm during use and therefore it should be treated with all
necessary caution.
•
Never keep easily combustible fluids such as petrol in the vicinity of the stove.
•
Never use easily combustible fluids to light the fire in the stove.
•
When lighting a fire and adding new wood logs, it is important to get the fire burning fast. If the fire
does not start quickly and wood only smoulders, it can cause strong smoke formation and in worst
case cause an explosive ignition of the flue gasses, which can damage the stove.
•
Never empty the ashpan when the stove is warm. Embers may still be found in the ashpan for up
to 24 hours after the fire has gone out. Please wait to empty the ashpan until you are sure that
there are no embers in the ash.
•
The door should be kept closed while the stove is in use. While lighting the fire, the door can
stand ajar for the first few minutes.
•
When putting logs in a hot stove, you must always open the primary air intake and make sure that
the wood ignites within 2-3 minutes. If the wood does not ignite, add some ignition products, and
ignite them manually. Please make sure that the flames are burning steadily for the first 10
minutes before you leave the stove.
•
In the event of a chimney fire: Close all the dampers on the wood burning stove and call the fire-
fighting service.
