INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
• Smoke tubing
By smoke tubing, the manufacturer intends
the conduit which connects the large smoke-
outlet of the fireplace with the chimney's
inlet. The smoke tubing must be made out of
rigid steel or ceramic tubes. Flexible metallic
tubes or asbestos cement tubes are not
allowed. Horizontal or counter-sloping tracts
must be avoided. Modifications to tubing
sections are only permitted in conjunction
with the fireplace outlet, and not, for exam-
ple, in conjunction with the chimney's inlet.
Vertical angles in excess of 45° are not per-
mitted. The point at which the smoke tubing
connects to the fireplace's smoke outlet must
be sealed with high temperature putty.
Aside from that which has been indicated
above, the user should take into considera-
tion the indications provided in paragraph
4.2, "connection to a smoke evacuation
system", and relative subparagraphs, of the
UNI 10683/2005 standard.
• Chimney
By chimney, the manufacturer intends the
conduit which, from the room in which the
fireplace is utilised, reaches the building's
rooftop.
Fundamental chimney characteristics:
- must be capable of supporting smoke tem-
peratures of at least 450°C with regards to
mechanical resistance, isolation and air-tight
structure
- must be appropriately insulated in order to
avoid the formation of condensation
- must be uninterrupted, nearly vertical and
must not include angles greater than 45°
(SEE SCHEMES AT SIDE)
- preferably has circular internal sections; in
case of rectangular sections, the maximum ratio
between the sides must not be greater that 1.5
- must have an internal section with a surface
area at least equal to that which is indicated
in the data sheet
- must serve only one fireplace (or wood
stove).
For older, or excessively large, chimneys, the
manufacturer recommends installing internal
stainless steel tubing with suitable insulation
and of an appropriate diameter.
• Chimneypot
Fundamental chimneypot characteristics:
- must have an internal base section equal to
that of the chimney
- must have an outlet section not inferior to
double that of the chimney
- must be in a fully ventilated position, above
the height of the roof and away from any
backflow zones.
Installing the fireplace covering
Fireplace functionality verification
The functionality of the fireplace must be
verified before its covering is installed.
Proceed as follows:
-Open the combustion air blocker completely
-Start a fire, using first small pieces of wood
then, gradually, larger pieces of wood.
Proceed until about 4kg of wood have been
added.
-Once the fire is burning well, verify the
functions of the fireplace
Once the first load has burnt down, repeat
the operation with another 4 kg of wood and
verify that the chimney is properly aspirating.
Open the fireplace door to make sure that
smoke does not come out into the room.
Fireplace
In order to determine the exact spot in which
to position the SCREEN fireplace, it is impor-
tant to verify the type of covering that will be
used to complete it.
Based on the model selected, the positioning
of the fireplace will have to be performed in
different manners (see the assembly instruc-
tions contained within the packaging of each
covering). Always ensure perfect alignment
during installation. Fasten the supplied serial
support frame to the floor, with anchoring
screws, in order to keep the fireplace from
swaying dangerously.
Air flow to the environment in which
the fireplace is installed
SCREEN fireplaces will only function properly
when installed in environments which receive
a sufficient influx of combustion air. Make
sure sufficient air flow is present before ligh-
ting the fireplace. Open the system's external
air intake valve, if equipped, and leave it
open whenever the fireplace is being used.
The combustion air supply devices must not
be altered. If the volume of combustion air
should be insufficient and if the building in
which the fireplace is installed should be
particularly air-tight, an additional 150 cm
air intake will have to be created.
