9.3.2 Convection air connection

This appliance is provided with removable convection plates that have to be broken out when creating chimney
breast ventilation. The openings that are created in this way can be used to make a connection for convection air.
Here, hot convection air (outflow) is taken to a ventilation opening in the chimney breast. No extra provisions are
required for the inflow of cold convection air. The accessories needed for the outflow are available through your
supplier.
When creating a convection air connection, you can place the supplied cover plates at the front of the appliance
(see appendix 2, fig. 9). These will make sure that the full air flow (100%) is guided via the convection openings.
If the cover plates are not placed, 20% of the total air flow will go via the convection openings.
The remaining 80% will flow out via the front of the appliance.
Only use the cover plates when the plates for the convection openings have been broken out.
!Caution
Various options are available for creating a convection air connection. Select the situation that applies to you and
proceed as follows:
New situation (hollow chimney breast made of non combustible material):
Option1:
• Using a hammer, break out the plates for the convection air connection at the top of the appliance (see
appendix 2, fig. 10).
• Place the rings on the convection openings (see appendix 2, fig. 11).
• Slide a heat-resistant, flexible hose (Ø 125 mm) over the ring and tightly fasten it using a hose clip or a
self-tapping screw.
• Connect the flexible hose to a ventilation element in the top of the chimney breast (at least 30 cm below the
ceiling). These accessories are available through your supplier.
Option 2:
• Using a hammer, break out the two convection openings at the top of the appliance (see appendix 2, fig. 10).
• Place two ventilation elements in the top section of the chimney breast (at least 30 cm below the ceiling).
Option 3:
• Do not break out the plates for the convection air connection.
• Place two ventilation elements below the appliance to supply relatively cold air.
• Place two ventilation elements above the fire (at least 30 cm below the ceiling).
This option is not available in combination with a construction frame.
!Caution
Existing situation or conversion without a hollow chimney breast
• Do not break out the plates for the convection air connection.
• The convection breast of the fire will provide sufficient convection flow.

9.3.3 Connection of the flue

In an existing situation the flue can be connected in three ways: without venting material, using a fixed
connection or by using a flexible connection.
Not all connection methods are allowed in all countries! Install the appliance strictly according to the
!CAUTION
country-specific conditions.
For the method without venting material you must create an airtight connection with ceramic wool between
the top side of the fire and the chimney (see paragraph 5.7.2).
When making a fixed connection use must be made of the specially developed tapered ring or the draining
flex/fix connecting piece. This is available through your supplier.
Proceed as follows (see Appendix 2, Fig. 12a to 12c):
Ø
Fix the ring/connecting piece using three bolts on the top side of the appliance.
Ø
Fit the appliance.
Ø
Slide the pipe over the tapered ring or into the draining flex/fix connecting piece.
