Fire safety
In connection with fire safety, it is important to observe the following rules before installing the stove.
1.
If the floor around the stove is made of combustible material, use a floor plate. It
should have a minimum size of: at the front of the door: 50 cm from the front of the stove, and 30 cm from either side of
the stove.
2.
Flammable objects should be at least 80 cm from the stove, for example: curtains, wooden objects
(cabinets and paintings) and glass objects. The same applies to the flue.
3.
Wooden structures within the radiation range of the stove (80 cm from the exterior of the stove) should be fitted with
fire-resistant cladding.
4.
If the flue passes through a ceiling and/or roof composed of combustible materials, an 80 cm area around the flue should
be clad with fire-resistant materials. Pay close attention to joists and electrical wiring.
5.
Any load-bearing steel structures must be at least 50 cm from the stove in all directions).
6.
Shield all combustible materials located within 80 centimetres of the stove openings. Shielding and fire guards should be
made of non-flammable materials.
7.
Never upholster or decorate the stove with flammable material (e.g. paper wallpaper).
8.
The wall behind the stove should be made of fireproof materials or be fitted with fireproof insulation.
The insulation material should be capable of withstanding temperatures of 700°C and have a density of at least 80 kg/m3.
Primary air supply
The stove should have a sufficient supply of fresh air. If necessary, create an additional air inlet, as close to the stove as possible, in
order to avoid draughts. The air inlet should have a minimum size of 150 cm2. An additional air inlet is always required if:

In these cases, the air inlet may not be closed. It must be possible to close the air inlet if it passes through a fire-resistant wall.
If there is more than one combustion appliance in the same room, there must be sufficient air inlets in order to guarantee sound
combustion.
External air supply
The supply duct for fresh outdoor air has a diameter of 80 millimetres.
The air supply duct can be connected at the bottom or the rear.
If the external air supply passes through a fire wall, this duct must have a shut-off valve.
If the duct is more than 1 metre long, including a 90-degree bend,
the duct diameter must be increased.
The room has a heat recovery system.
The room has a central extraction system.
There is an extractor hood in the same room.
