Facings, gather hood and vents
Face the product only after having completed the
following steps:
• connection of the product to the smoke outlet and
air intake;
• inspection of the product when hot;
• check to verify whether the product is levelled.
The installer must implement all the installation good
practices and take all the necessary precautions
against overheating and fire.
In particular:
• if a plinth is constructed beneath the hearth level,
it must include a suitable slot for the passage of
recirculation air from the room;
• if the Air Diffuser Kit is installed, it must be possible
to inspect or replace the fans;
• wooden parts must be protected with fireproof
panels, which must not be placed against one
another but spaced at least 1 cm apart to enable air
to flow and prevent heat build-up. The gather hood
can be made with fireproof panels, plasterboard
or gypsum slabs; during construction, the hot air
ducting kit must be mounted as described above.
16
The interior of the gather hood should be aerated
by exploiting the flow of air coming from below (the
space between the door and mantel) which convective
currents will cause to exit from the grille on top,
thus allowing heat recovery and preventing undue
overheating.
In addition to that mentioned above, take into account
the regulations in force in the relevant country
concerning "insulation, finishes, facings and safety
recommendations".
Compensation vents
These MUST be installed on the front: one beneath
and one above the firebox's opening.
