Installation And Fitting Of The Surround - KAL-FIRE ECO-prestige 75 Installation Instructions Manual

27. Installation and fitting of the surround

27.1 Ventilation without convection hood
The appliance can be installed without a convection mantle. In this case,
protect the surround from high temperatures using air vents or masked
openings to ensure ventilation. The upper part of the fire should never be
insulated. It is essential to create ventilation openings (175 cm² on each
side) in the surround at a height of at least 2 metres above the floor to
avoid excessive temperatures.
1 = Air intake grate (min. 175cm2 each)*
2 = Technical unit
3 = Grate for exit of convection air (min. 175cm2 each)*
*The grate may be replaced by free openings of at least 300cm2.
The floor underneath the appliance must be made of non-
combustible material: if this is not the case, place non-
combustible material underneath the appliance. This also applies
to the walls behind and on both sides of the appliance, as well as the
.
ceiling
Excessive temperatures could cause the self-regulating system of the fireplace to malfunction and cause an error code to display on
the remote control (02F).
27.2 Ventilation with convection hood
A convection mantle can be ordered as an option for the Fairo ECO-prestige (for an additional cost). The mantle is mounted on the
appliance in the factory and so cannot be installed afterwards. The convection hood ensures a delivery of controlled heat in the
room, optimising the heat output of the appliance.
Two flexible aluminium ducts (Ø 150 mm) connected to the ventilation openings or grates can be mounted on the convection hood.
The total cross-section of the outlets must be a minimum of 350 cm².
An optional convection system includes the flexible aluminium ducts and the assembly grates for the convection hood.
