FIRE-FIGHTING SAFETY MEASURES

When installing the appliance, the following safety measures must be observed:
a) In order to ensure sufficient thermal insulation, respect the minimum safety distance from objects or furnishing components
flammable and sensitive to heat and from materials with flammable structure (see CE MARKING INFORMATION -
All the minimum safety distances are shown on the product data plate and lower values must not be used.
b) in front of the furnace door, in the radiation area, there must be no flammable or heat-sensitive objects or material at a distance
of less than 80 cm. This distance can be reduced to 40 cm where a rear-ventilated, heat-resistant protection device is installed
in front of the whole component to protect;
c) If the product is installed on a no totally refractory floor, one must foresee a fireproof background. The floors made of
inflammable material, such as moquette, parquet or cork etc., must be covered by a layer of no-inflammable material (size
according to regional law, see
The ash drawer must always be inserted when the appliance is in operation.
The solid combustion residues (ashes) must be collected in a metal container that is hermetically sealed and fire resistant. The
appliance must never be lit in the presence of gaseous emissions or vapours (for example: glue for linoleum, petrol, etc,). Do not
place flammable materials in the vicinity of the appliance.
During the combustion, thermal air is emitted by involving the heating of areas, door and glass hearth, of the door handles
or controls, of the smokes pipe and, in case, of the front part of appliance. Avoid to touch those parts without a protective
clothing or without accessory tools (gloves resistant to heat, control devices). Ensure children are aware of these
dangers and keep them away from the furnace when it is on.Warn children that the device becomes very hot and
that it must not be touched.
When using the wrong fuel or one which is too damp, due to deposits present in the flue, a flue fire is possible.

FIRST-AID MEASURES

Should any fire arise in the stack or in the flue:
a) Close the feeding door.
b) Close the registers of combustion air
c) Extinguish the fire using carbon dioxide fire-fighting means (CO
d) Seek immediate intervention of FIRE BRIGADE.
DO NOT EXTINGUISH FIRE USING WATER JETS. When the flue does not burn any more please arrange an examination by a
specialist in order to find possible cracks and permeable points.

BEAM PROTECTIONS

Considering the irradiation of the hearth, it is necessary to be particularly careful in protecting the beams while designing your stack.
Consider the proximity of beams to the external surfaces of the hearth, on one side, and the irradiation of the glass door, usually very
close to the beams, on the other side. In any case, it has to be considered that the internal or lower surfaces of this beam in flammable
material must not come in contact with temperatures higher than 65 °C.
WARNING: We cannot be made liable for a wrong operation of the plant, when it does not comply with the provisions
of these instructions or when it uses additional products not suitable for this device.

DESCRIPTION

Definition: thermo-fireplace according to EN 13229.
La NORDICA thermo-fireplace are ideal for holiday flats and weekend houses or as auxiliary heating all year round. Wooden logs are
used as fuel. The appliance works as an intermittent operating appliance.
The appliance is composed of painted and galvanised sheet steel and cast iron. The boiler body is made of 4 mm thick steel, and the
fire bed and removable grille are both made of cast iron. The appliance is equipped with a smoke deflector, inserted between the two
upper cylindrical pipes, which is easy to remove for quick and handy cleaning of the inside part. The circular combustion chamber
has a perforated central back piece in cast iron. Pre-heated air reaches the inside of the hearth through these holes, thus providing
post-combustion with an increase in yield and a reduction of emissions of unburnt gasses.
The door with viewing window is fitted on extendible ball bearing guides that guarantee the sturdy, quiet, and reliable operation of the
appliance. The counterweight for door raising is supported by two sturdy chains with respective pinions.
The ceramic glass window (resistant up to 700°C) of the door provides a lovely view of the burning flames and prevents sparks and
smoke from getting out.
