- Page 6 6. Ensure you have access in order to dismantle the motor in the event of any break-down. 3.6USING AND HANDLING ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES The thermostat has been regulated to a temperature of 55ºC and, therefore, does not require any adjustments, except connecting the wires. The regulation box (SWITCH-POTENTIOMETER) must be installed in an accessible place, near the Hearth.
- Page 7 VERY IMPORTANT The fan motor must be connected to the power supply network permanently in order connect automatically, triggered by the thermostat, whenever the Hearth is producing heat. It automatically stops when the Hearth cools. If it is disconnected when the Hearth is hot, the electrical components may be damaged.
- Page 8 Over the years, you may change the type of fuel you use but, once the chimney has been installed in a given place, it is not so easy to alter or reposition. Therefore, the following information will help you decide whether you can use your present chimney or not, or whether you need to build a new one.
- Page 9 Other factors also affect chimney draw: - High trees and/or buildings near the house also have a negative effect on chimney draw. - Wind speed. Usually, sustained strong winds increase chimney draw but stormy winds have a negative effect. - External temperature. The colder it is outside, the greater the chimney effect.
- Page 10 Whenever possible, build your chimney inside the house; this will provide better draw, lower creosote accumulation and a longer life. THE ADVANTAGES OF BRICK CHIMNEYS INCLUDE: a) Fumes cool off more slowly inside the chimney due to the mass of bricks and tiles.
- Page 11 b) Choose the most vertical and straight route possible and do not connect several devices to the same chimney. c) The conduit should not come to an end near buildings and must be higher than the nearest obstacle if there is another building nearby.
- Page 12 e) The internal walls must be perfectly smooth and free from obstacles. Avoid bottlenecks where pipes join to the brick chimneys. f) It is very important to ensure that the joints of the pipes are well sealed to avoid possible cracks through which air may enter. In order to verify the air-tightness of the chimney, you may: - Cover the outlet on the roof.
- Page 13 g) It is very important that the chimney should be one metre higher than the highest part of the house. If you need to increase the draw, extend the length of the chimney. h) Chimney covers must not affect chimney draw. i) Clean the chimney at least once a year.

The most efficient way of cleaning chimney conduits is using appropriate chimney brushes. Chemical products are available to help postpone classical chimney sweeping operations. Brushes must adapt as closely as possible to the diameter of the chimney. j) The joints between the pipes that form the chimney, in the case of simple metal pipes, must be sealed with refractory putty. - Page 15 HEARTH, use a chisel and hammer to open the holes located on the back of the grate. (This grate is not provided with models H-02/22 and TC-1). IMPORTANT!! The hearth must be closed at all times when lit to avoid smoke from leaking out.
