Expansion Gap Between The Casing And The Fireplace Insert - Spartherm Mini R1V51 Installation Instructions Manual

For bodies of the heating chamber flush with the ceiling or bodies with high
own weight, the self-supporting collimator must be fastened on-site. For
this purpose, the connecting rode must be released from the fireplace insert
and secured to the body wall or on the ceiling. You can use e.g., impact
anchors in combination with links made of steel for this, depending on the
wall construction.
The alignment of the collimator should be carried out using a spirit level.
During assembly and creating the heating chamber, take care that the sup-
porting frame and collimator are not positioned lower than the door hood of
the fireplace insert. For cleaning purposes, check the ability to push-up or
pivot the combustion chamber door. The combustion chamber door must
be able to be moved freely and open without resistance.

6.2 EXPANSION GAP BETWEEN THE CASING AND
THE FIREPLACE INSERT
There must be no direct connection between the fireplace insert and the
casing. An expansion joint must be provided and sealed by means of an
appropriate sealing strip. Please note that there must be a minimum dis-
tance of 6 cm between the door frame and the fireplace hood/installation
frame in order to be able to disassemble the fireplace insert door if neces-
sary (e.g. replace the pane).
