Important! All local regulations, including those referring to national or
European law must be complied with when the appliance is installed. Your stove must
be installed correctly for it to work safely and efficiently.
Please ensure that it is correctly installed.
When a fire is going to be lit at the same time as other heaters which need air for
combustion it is recommended that extra air from outside is allowed to enter the room to
help combustion.
If one or more heaters are working in the same room this could mean that
there is less oxygen making combustion difficult and reducing the draft. When a
stove is installed in a room it is a good idea to ensure that there is a permanent
flow of air to the room (ventilation grill).
To ensure that your stove is installed correctly this must be done by a
professional. It is recommended to install your fireplace so that you have
access to the interior so that it can be cleaned, especially at the entrance of
the hood.
The CRETE stove must not be installed when there is a shared
chimney.
A.- Assembly.
If a CRETE stove is going to be installed and fastened to the wall, the
wall must be strong enough to support it.
The base wall to which the stove is fastened must also be able to
withstand any heat emitted by the stove while it is in operation.
In order to assemble a Crete stove, a chimney must be installed ("draft"),
with metal pipes which are long enough to be at least 1 metre higher than the top
of the roof.
If there is an existing chimney the assembly has to be carried out by joining
it with the Crete stove using a collar adaptation which must be coupled to the
equipment's smoke exit and to the existing chimney.
It is vital that the joins of the sections of the chimney are correctly sealed.
(See Fig.-7, Page.8).
B.- Chimneys.
It is recommended that your chimney is installed so that you have
access to the interior so that it can be cleaned, especially at the entrance of
the hood.
The operation of your Crete stove depends on:
d) The chimney.
e) The way in which it works in conjunction with the chimney.
f) The quality of fuel used.
II.- INSTALLATION
