5.7.1 Free-standing/design fires
5.7.1.1 Conversion from fire top connection to rear connection (if applicable).
The fire is supplied with a top connection for connecting the flue duct.
The top connection can be converted to a rear connection.
To do this proceed as follows (see Annex 2, Fig. 2):
Ø
Take the flame baffle plate or baffle plates out of the fireplace (if applicable see section 9, 'Appliance-specific
information').
Ø
Your appliance can be provided with an extra steel restrictor cap (if applicable see section 9, 'Appliance-specific
information'). Remove this by sliding the restrictor cap forwards and taking it out of the rails. This restrictor cap is
not replaced with a rear connection.
Ø
Remove the fire's convection back plate by undoing the bolts.
Ø
Remove the push-through plate from the convection back plate.
Ø
Remove the cover plate for the flue from the back wall of the fire by undoing the 2 or 3 nuts.
Ø
Remove the flue ring from the top plate by undoing the nuts and/or bolts.
Ø
Fit the flue ring on the back wall using the bolts and/or nuts.
Ø
Fasten the convection back plate again with the bolts.
Ø
Assemble the cover plate for the flue in the opening in the top plate using the nuts.
Ø
Replace the flame baffle plate or baffle plates in the reverse order.
5.7.1.2 Installing a free-standing fire, general
A free-standing fire is installed as follows:
Ø
Determine the fire location. The dimensions of the appliance are given in Annex 2, Fig. 1.
Ø
For any appliance-specific instructions we refer to section 9 'Appliance-specific information'.
Ø
Make sure there are no flammable materials present.
Ø
Lay the floor plate if applicable.
Ø
Place the fire on a blanket or sheet of cardboard (to avoid damaging the floor) then put it in the desired place.
Ø
Connect the fire to the flue duct. Follow the instructions of the supplier of the flue gas extraction system. Use
heater piping material that at least suffices with regard to EN 1856-2 T600.
Ø
Lift the fire a little if necessary so the blanket or cardboard can be removed.
Ø
For completing installation we refer to paragraph 5.8.
5.7.1.3 Design fire installation
To install a design fire we refer to Section 9 'Appliance-specific information'.
5.7.2 Insert fires (existing and new situation)
5.7.2.1 With an existing chimney or chimney breast
To install an insert fire with an existing chimney or chimney breast proceed as follows:
Ø
Determine the fire location. The dimensions of the appliance are given in Annex 2, Fig. 1.
Ø
Leave a space of at least 10 mm between the fire and construction materials.
Ø
Check the size of the recess. If necessary the walls of the open hearth can be broken out a little. Make sure that the
chimney top is still sufficiently supported.
Ø
If applicable make room for the connection of the convection openings (if applicable see section 9
'Appliance-specific information') and section 5.3 'Convection')) with a flexible aluminium pipe and ventilation
elements (see section 5.4 'Appliances with fan(s)'. These accessories can be ordered from your supplier.
Ø
Be careful with the chimney breast plaster. Plaster beading makes the recess smaller.
Ø
Remove any existing valve from the open hearth or slide and clean the chimney top so all soot is removed.
Ø
Remove the fire door and disassemble the frame when it is supplied separately (see section 9 'Appliance-specific
information').
Ø
Carefully remove the inner lining plates (mark them), the baffle plate and (if present) the restrictor cap from the
fire (if applicable see, section 9 'Appliance-specific information').
Ø
Lay any bottom plate supplied where the fire is to be installed.
Ø
Turn the adjustable legs in with the hexagonal socket screwdriver supplied and check whether they are properly
adjustable. There may still be some blasting grit present.
Ø
Make sure there is sufficient room under fire for the supply of combustion air when there is no outside air
connection.
Ø
An outside air connection can be made (if applicable see section 9 'Appliance-specific information').
