DESCRIPTION
Built-in fireplace has distinctive construction, design and parts and that
makes it different from other solid fuel furnaces. It’s made from casted
and sheet metal items, which makes maintenance and cleaning easy.
The door is made from cast iron fitted with draught seals that are
air-proof and enable great functionality during operation. Shell is made
from steel sheet 4 mm thick.
Air regulation hatch, that is located on the bottom of the
door, enables fire intensity regulation. Air inlet on the top of the
glass keeps it clean and enables better fuel combustion.

2.1 Air flow regulator (pictures 2, 3, and 4).
Air flow regulator should be adjusted using an adjustable
tool. When closed (picture 2), air flow regulator enables
lower capacity operation. When open (picture 4), air flow
regulator enables nominal capacity.

3. HANDLING AND USE 3.1
Fuelling
Before kindling, open air flow regulator. For kindling, use
paper and small pieces of chopped wood. Light the paper and close
the door (or leave it half-closed to accelerate flaring).
When chopped wood catches flame, open the firebox door and fill
the chamber with appropriate fuel.
3.2. Safety
Never use water for fire extinguishing. Door can become
extremely hot. Be careful not to get burned, this is especially
important when kids are in question. Combustion chamber releases
high temperature emissions through glass. Don’t leave temperature
sensitive materials and items in front of built-in fireplace.
Empty the ashpan content into the metal or fireproof
container. Seemingly cooled ash can be extremely hot, even several
hours after.
4. BUILT-IN FIREPLACE INSTALATION
For correct installation of fireplace, it is necessary to check chimney
draught first, because good draught is a requirement for proper
operation.
Draught intensity can be checked with a candle (picture 7).
Low draught Medium draught Strong draught
Picture 7
Draught intensity depends on:
a) Chimney functionality ,
b) Atmospheric conditions (season).

c) Functionality of the fireplace and other heating devices attached to the
same chimney;
d) Position of the house (on the hill, in the valley, etc.)
5. BUILT-IN FIREPLACE MAINTENANCE
Soot removing from the flue way is mandatory and it must be done several
times during a year, at least once in heating season. While cleaning the flue
way, following should be done:
- Detach the flue gases baffle plate (1) by pulling it out (pictures 8 and
9);
- Let the back part of baffle plate slides down, and
then remove it (picture 10).
To attach it back: proceed in reverse order compared to detaching. Check
connections and locking bolts, especially sealants.
Picture 8 Picture 9 Picture 10
Check the condition of chimney pots. All connections must be in good
condition and sealants must be fully functional. When cleaning the
inside of combustion chamber, make sure that span for hot air flow
and fresh air inlet is clear. Front glass should be cleaned with wet
cloth and ash or use some soda-based cleaning product if necessary.
Before cleaning, wait till the fireplace is completely cold. Clean the air
flow baffle plate regularly (picture 11).

A –Edge of air flow baffle plate Edge
should be cleaned by scraping with a
metal object to remove all the
particles that stained the glass and
that way interfere with proper air
flow.
