  • Page 6: Planning Your Installation

    1. Planning Your Installation 1.1 Questions to Ask Local Building Officials A correct installation is critical and imperative for reducing fire hazards and perilous conditions that can arise when wood burning appliances are improperly installed. The installer must follow all of the manufacturer’s instructions.
  • Page 7: Clearance From Combustible Walls

    1.4 Clearance from Combustible Walls WARNING: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU OBSERVE THE MINIMUM CLEARANCES. There are listed clearances for your fireplace which were determined in a Laboratory test, using various “classes” of stove pipe or chimney. Minimums are first established for the fireplace itself and then increased, based on how much heat is transferred by each class of pipe.
  • Page 8: Floor Protection

    1.5 Floor Protection This appliance requires a non-combustible floor protection to protect against burning embers. If the floor is to be stone, tile, brick, etc., it must be mortared or grouted to form a continuous, non- combustible surface. If a chimney connector extends horizontally over the floor, protection must cover the floor under the connector and at least 2”...
  • Page 9: Ventilation

    1.6 Ventilation (Residential homes which do not require an outside air inlet). Ventilation is essential when using a solid fuel fireplace. The combustion process uses oxygen from inside the home, and it may be necessary to open a window or install a vent to provide combustion air in a house that is well insulated.

    2. Installation 2.1 Installing Marble Accents Marble is a natural product, and, therefore, each piece will have its own unique character. Marble can be scratched so care should be taken to avoid putting heavy or rough objects (trivet/steamers) on the surface.
  • Page 11: Types Of Chimneys

    2.3 Types of Chimneys The chimney is a vital part of your fireplace installation. A properly built masonry chimney or a properly installed factory built chimney will assure a consistent draft under a variety of weather conditions (a smoking fireplace is usually caused by a chimney problem). The fireplace flue size is 6 inches (152 mm) diameter, which is approximately 28 square inches (711 square mm) minimum.

    Vapor Barrier at Chimney Penetration Install all venting components per the vent manufacturer’s installation instructions. Ensure that there is an effective vapor barrier at the location where the chimney penetrates the exterior of the structure. This can be accomplished by applying a non-hardening, waterproof sealant to the following components: •...

The clay liner must conform to ASTM C315 (Standard Specification for Clay Fire Linings) or its equivalent.

  • Page 20: Door

    6.2 Door Caution: Use protective glove!!! When adding wood, pull out the door handle. The door opens from the right side. After you have finished, remember to securely lock the door again by pressing it back in. Warning: Be careful in using the door. Never operate the fireplace with broken glass!!! A torsion spring is used to automatically close this door.
  • Page 21: Starting A Fire

    7.2 Starting a Fire It is important to engage the wood in a trouble-free combustion process as quickly and safely as possible. In order to accomplish this, the wood should be layered in the fireplace as follows: Never use alcohol, gasoline or similar substances, including glossy paper, to light the fire. It does not burn properly, and its printed colors produce highly toxic elements in the fumes.
  • Page 22: Burning During Transition Periods

    7.7 Burning during Transition Periods During transition periods (Spring / Fall), outside temperatures of over 16°C can cause a smoke buildup in the fireplace. If sufficient draft cannot be created with a startup fire at this temperature (= rapid generation of high heat by quick burning of newspaper), so that the fumes are not completely removed, then you should abandon your plans for a fire.
