1. A RTE ® F IREPLACE - A G REEK Q UALITY P RODUCT
Thank you for buying an ARTE® fireplace - we believe that you will have as much pleasure from our product as we
have, producing it.
Your ARTE® fireplace is made in such a way, to extract the maximum possible energy from the wood with the minimum
possible emissions, using the most innovative technology and the most robust design – one product made in Greece!
These instructions contain interesting and informative facts and all you need to know about the subjects of heating,
wood, and operating your ARTE
®
fireplace. Please read these instructions carefully before using your fireplace for the
first time and keep them for future usage.
2. F ACTS ABOUT THE WOOD AND THE ENVIRONMENT
2.1. Why should I use wood?
With proper forest management, burning wood does not deplete the earth’s resources. Heating with wood usually
does not contribute to global warming. The young trees that replace the trees that you burn in your fireplace absorb
carbon dioxide (CO
2
) from the air. Burning firewood releases only as much CO
2
as the tree has absorbed from the
atmosphere during its growth. Similarly, wood rotting in the forest generates the same amount of CO
2
as the same
wood burning.
Besides being environmentally friendly, the heat from a fireplace warms you like the warming rays of the sun during the
sunny winter days. It is the radiated heat that is transmitted by electromagnetic waves in the infrared range. Even
when the air is very cold you can feel the warm rays of the sun on your skin.
Another advantage of wood is that it is produced locally, which creates local employment, and more tax revenues
stay in the province.
2.2. Buying firewood
Where can I get my firewood?
Regenerated ready-to-burn firewood can be purchased from dealers:
 Fireplace ready, stored for at least two years
 Pre-dried, stored for one year
 Fresh from the forest
Whether you have cut your own wood or bought it, the important thing is that: the wood should be dried for at least
two years before it is burned.
2.3. Storing your wood
The full potential for heat will not be realized if
you neglect the simple but necessary chore of
piling and protecting your wood. Proper storage
is essential to avoid moisture, bacteria, and
insect problems in your home.
To avoid problems with insects and moisture,
store the wood as far from your house as is
practical. Do not store wood in your basement;
one cord of wood (4 m
3
) can give off more than
500 liters of water. The basic rule is to protect the
wood from water, but not from the sun or wind
(Pic. 2.3.1 & 2.3.2) Green wood will dry slowly or
not at all if unprotected, while seasoned wood left unprotected may become unseasoned.
The ideal residual moisture is 12 - 15% and should be no higher!
The manuals which are enclosed with the product must be kept throughout the product’s
entire service life. They are also available online in our website.
Pic. 2.3.1 Pic. 2.3.2

INSTALLATION AND USER MANUAL FΙREPLACE | TREND

There are three basic rules to follow when storing wood:
 Allow air circulation by piling the wood alternately (one layer across – one layer
widthwise), if possible.
 Protect wood from rain and snow by covering it with a tarp or woodshed roof. Otherwise,
place it under a shed with a wooden roof.
 Pile wood off the ground on scrap lumber or wooden pallets.
The time-honored way to cure wood is to buck, split, and stack wood off the ground for
one full year. Although wood can generally be reduced to 20 per cent moisture content in
two to three months, the ideal 10% to 15% may take longer (almost 18 months).
2.4. Wood types and calorific value
A wood’s efficiency does not depend only on its type, but also on
its humidity, as well as the temperature of the combustion
chamber.
For more efficient and longer burning, without emission of
hazardous substances, woods must be dry. Ideally, their humidity
percentage must not exceed 10% to 15%.
If this percentage is over 20%, the wood is not burned properly,
whereas if the piece of wood has been cut recently, the humidity
is over 60% making it unsuitable for burning. The reason for that is
that the fire will be weak and pale and will produce dense smoke,
unburned tar and creosote, soiling the ceramic glass and the flue.
It is preferable to get your wood supplies during the summer
months and store them, to ensure better combustion quality during the winter.
Useful tips
 Always choose dry firewood.
 Avoid wood that pops (chestnut, conifers such as cedar, spruce and pine), as they may damage your fireplace or the
flue.
 Pay attention to the size of the logs. Good firewood must have been cut at least twice.
 You should prefer oak, beech, olive wood, which is hard wood with high density since they will burn for longer.
Briquettes
They ignite very easily, and burn slowly. They are economically advantageous because you will burn smaller quantities
compared to common firewood and they are easily stored. Also, you have less quantity of ashes in comparison to
wood.
Birch
It’s a soft wood that ignites easily with great thermal energy production. It produces less smoke and ash compared to
other wood and burns silently. The same characteristics apply for lime and chestnut.
Beech
Hard wood is ideal for firewood but requires a high temperature to ignite. It weights a lot; it is dense and burns with a
calm and long fire for a longer time. Best when well seasoned. The same applies for oak, but seasoned for 2-3 years.
Every type of wood has its own calorific value.
The values are based on 15% residual wood moisture.

2.5. Determining the heat output
There is not a specific rule that enables the calculation of the required heat output. This depends on the amount of
space that is required to be heated and mostly on its insulation. In average the required heat output for a properly
insulated room and with external temperature of 0
ο
C is 40 kCal/h per m
3
.
Taking into account that 1kW equals 860 kCal/h an equivalent of 50W/m
3
can be used. For example, to heat a 150 m3
room (10 x 6 x 2.5m) in an insulated residence, the output required is 150m
3
x 50W/m
3
= 7500W or 7.5 kW.
So, for the main heating, a 10kW appliance is enough.

6. If you bought the 4 wheel transportation set, (optional), place them at the feet (Pic. 4.1.7) and secure them with the
M5 allen screw (Pic. 4.1.8). Remove the wheel when the transportation is over.
7. For the fireplace with the sliding door (type h), for safety reasons during the transportation, the door is secured at the
upper open position. To release the door, unscrew the hexagon screw, which fox the counterweight. (Pic. 4.1.9).
5. I NSTALLATION AND FIRE SAFETY
During the installation of the fireplace, It is OBLIGATORY to respect the National and European rules and local
regulations concerning building matter and fireproof rules.
The installation MUST be inspected by a qualified auditor, prior to lighting the fireplace. Also, the appropriate local
authorities must be informed.
5.1. Changing the opening side of the door
Your ARTE® TREND fireplace is delivered with a door which opens towards left, but it is possible to change it in order to
open towards right.
To change the opening side of the door, you must follow the next steps:
1) Unscrew slightly the screws that hold the lower hinge at the left side’s door. (Pic. 5.1.1).
2) Open the door and remove it, by pulling its bottom side outwards and then by pulling it downwards in order the pin
of the upper hinge to be released. (Pic. 5.1.2).
3) Remove the handle and the ceramic glass’s protective sheet, by removing three allen screws. (Pic. 5.1.3). Pay
attention at the washers, the small cylinder that is located inside the handle and the way that they are assembled.
You must reassemble them in the same way at the opposite side of the door. With the same way, remove the glass’s
protective sheet from the right side of the door, together with the two allen screws and reassemble them at the
opposite side.

and reassemble them at the opposite side of the door. (Pic. 5.1.4).
5) Remove the pin that secures the door, from the frame and screw it at the opposite side of the door (Pic. 5.1.5).
6) Place the bottom hinge at the right side of the door, place the door, line up the door and tighten the screws of the
lower hinge by following the opposite procedure till the step 2. (Pic. 5.1.6).
Pic. 5.1.4 Pic. 5.1.5 Pic. 5.1.6
5.2. Adjustment and leveling of the fireplace
Adjust the legs of the fireplace at the desired height, choosing one out of the four available holes and secure each leg
with a self tapping screw. (Pic. 5.2.1).
Level the door. The leveling is quite important for the right operation of the sliding door (Type h). For the height
adjustment, loosen the nuts which are located at the device’s legs, and rotate the adjustment screws (Pic. 5.2.2).
When you reach the desired height, tighten again the nuts. The distances that are shown in (Pic 5.2.3) must be kept.
Pic. 5.2.1 Pic. 5.2.2 Pic. 5.2.3
The same procedure can be followed in a sliding door fireplace (type h), in order the
opening side of the door to be changed.
In general, due to the expansion of the fireplace, the whole casing must have a gap, at
least 0,5 cm, around the fireplace.

5.3. Door’s counterweights adjustment for sliding door (Type h)
For the adjustment of the door’s counterweights, remove the front galvanized cover. To remove it, unscrew the screws
and pull the cover upwards. (Pic. 5.3.1). By adding or removing plates you can affect the function of the door
(Pic. 5.3.2). For safety reasons and well function of the fireplace, the door (during its assembly at the factory) is set to
close at low speed.
5.4. Safety distances
The combustion chamber opening must be AT LEAST 80cm away from any flammable
materials that are inside the heat radiation zone (Pic. 5.4.1).
5.5. Wooden beams protection
Given its properties, heat is also transmitted through radiation. In case there are any
wooden beams inside the radiation zone or in the way of the hot air, they MUST be
properly insulated because the continuous exposure in high temperatures can make
them deteriorate faster or even cause self ignition. Use proper insulation materials that
are in accordance with European rules or, in case of high thermal stress you can also
use metal linings.
5.6. General safety instructions
 Never leave children alone or without supervision near the fireplace when it is lit.
 Teach children how to operate the fireplace correctly and safely.
 Never touch the external surfaces of the fireplace or the glass when it is lit. There is a high risk of burns!
 Due to the self closing door, you have to be extra careful when you are filling the fireplace.
 It is forbidden to use the fireplace as a waste incinerator.
 Don’t use burned or used wood as fuel.
 Remove the ash only after it has completely cooled off.
 Ash should be placed outdoors or be disposed in a place where there is no risk of ignition.
 Immediately inform your specialized local supplier if you find any malfunction.
 Don’t use chemicals or liquids as fire starters.
 Do not use ANY fuel other than the recommended.

5.7. Flue safety instructions
Prior to installing the fireplace ARTE® the chimney sweep or a qualified
technician should check the condition and operation of your chimney in
accordance with the standards EN13384-1 & EN13384-2.
By this way, you ensure the best conditions for heating without issues.
-Basic requirements for proper flue operation
 The internal section of the flue must preferably be circular. In a case of square
or rectangular flue, the internal corners should have a radius of at least
20mm. In case of rectangular flue, the ratio of the sides should be at
maximum 1: 1.5.
 The flue must be properly insulated and waterproof and constructed of materials with thermal resistance and
resistance to combustion products and any deposits.
 The flue must have no constrictions, it must have a vertical path and it should not change in direction that exceeds
45
o
C (Pic. 5.7.1).
 In case of an existing flue the construction material should be checked. Materials such as cement with lime,
galvanized steel and rough or porous materials are contraindicated as they create issues in the correct operation of
the fireplace. Also, a proper study for the flue size must be conducted because often old flues have quite large
diameters. This means that the amount of air draft is not proportional to the heat generated by the fireplace and by
extension means that you consume more wood than necessary and will spend more time on maintenance. The
solution proposed in these cases is the connection of an inner tube inside the flue. This tube should extend over the
whole length of the flue and at no point should exceed in diameter the outlet flue of the fireplace. If the existing flue
has the desired diameter a proper cleaning by qualified personnel should be done.
 In case of placement of the flue, along outer wall, a careful research must be done in order the thermal loses to be
prevented. However, this solution is not appropriate as the placement of the flue inside the house, heats up more
spaces, as the whole heat of the flue.
 The usage of gravitational damper is recommended, for flue ≥6m, in order steady and efficient burning to be insured.
-Chimney placement
The placement of the chimney on the roof is a particularly decisive factor in the convection of the fireplace.
An incorrectly fitted chimney may generate reimbursement of exhaust into the heating space due to down flow of the
air.
Follow the instructions below to ensure proper dissipation of smoke (Pic. 5.7.2).
 The ending of the chimney must be at least 50cm above the top of the roof.
 If there is more than one chimney on the roof, they must be positioned at least 2m apart.
 If there are two adjacent chimneys, their ends must be at least 50cm apart.
Pic. 5.7.1
Pic. 5.7.2 Pic. 5.7.3

 If there is a tall building or tree next to the house, then you should place the chimney at a distance greater than 5m
from the obstacle.
 It is prohibited to connect several devices to the same chimney. Each chimney should be autonomous (Pic. 5.7.3)
 In case of an inclined roof, the height of the chimney is defined depending on the inclination and the distance of the
chimney from the ridge according to the following table and figure (Table 5.7.1 & Pic. 5.7.4)

-Chimney cap
The chimney draft depends broadly on the adequacy of the cap.
So, in case the chimney is built, its exhaust diameter should be at least twice the inside diameter of the chimney.
Knowing that it is necessary to protrude from the ridge of the roof, the cap must ensure the proper smoke dissipation in
case of strong wind.
A chimney cap must meet the following requirements:
 Internal diameter must be equal to the diameter of the chimney.
 Exhaust diameter be at least twice the inside diameter of the chimney.
 It should be constructed in such a way as to avoid the entrance of rain, snow and any foreign body in the chimney.
 It can be checked, maintained and cleaned easily.

5.8. Connecting the fireplace with the flue
It is necessary that the flue gas tube is connected to a certified conduit with the same diameter
as the fireplace, by following the dimensions of the adjacent image (Pic. 5.8.1). For the fireplace
TREND the diameter of the flue is 200mm. The flue must be properly insulated with stone wool with
thickness of 4cm with external aluminum foil. Do not use fiberglass or paper based insulation. Also,
do not use flexible thin walled metallic tubes or asbestos tubes. This tube should be perfectly
sealed and well insulated throughout its length.
To install the flue, you must place it on the fireplace outlet and then seal it using the appropriate
sealant.
5.9. Air intake connection
TREND gives you the ability to intake
air for the burning from different
sources:
) The best solution is the air to be
intake from the outer environment
(Pic. 5.9.2). Follow the next steps:
1) Open a wicket directly on the wall.
2) Break the round piece of sheet metal at the bottom of
the fireplace, as indicated in Pic. 5.9.1.
3) Adjust the Φ100mm collar (included).
4) Adjusting a flexible aluminum tube on the collar.
For the wicket, use a nozzle, protected by a grille and a wire
net. The nozzle must intersect with the combustion chamber
through the flexible tub, which must be properly placed in order not to be covered. Its minimum surface cannot be less
than 110 cm
2
().
Β) When the direct import of external air is impossible, you can input internal air from your house, by opening a wicket
either at the area where the fireplace is located (Pic. 5.9.3) or from another adjacent room, by installing wickets at the
intermediate walls (Pic. 5.9.4).
These wickets must be free and not able to be covered. Also, their minimum surface must be 300cm
2
(Β), for example,
a grille which size is 30x10cm.

The minimum height that the fireplace can be set depends on the minimum required space that is needed for the
connection of the intake’s combustion air tube (Pic. 5.9.5).
In case that you need less space between the fireplace and the floor, you can buy the external air combustion supply
kit (Pic. 5.9.6).
Pic. 5.9.5 Pic. 5.9.6
To install the external air combustion supply kit, follow the next steps:
1) Screw the kit with 2 sheet metal screws at the back of the fireplace (Pic. 5.9.7).
2) Break the strip of the sheet metal as indicated (Pic. 5.9.8).
3) Screw the metal cover with 6 sheet metal screws (Pic. 5.9.9).
4) Choose from where you want to supply air (B or C), break the sheet at the corresponding point and place a
Φ100mm collar (Pic. 5.9.10).
5) Fix the flexible tube with a clamp.

5.10. Hot air abduction
The space extending around and over the device up to the deflector must be
ventilated continuously. For this reason you must allow cool air from a lower spot, for
example, the bottom and the outlet of the hot air from above (Pic. 5.10.1).
With that way, it can be achieved:
 Higher safety
 Increase of the temperature inside the heating room, because of the air flow
around the device (heat conduction).
The hot air extract grille must be placed on top of the trunk approximately 20cm
from the ceiling. The grille must always be installed, as its purpose is to allow, the
heat that builds up inside the trunk to be released in the room and also to relieve
the pressure created.
5.11. Fireplace with galvanized covers and hot air system ( Optional )
-Hot air outlet
At the top of the device, there are four closed and pre- shaped openings as exits of the hot air to the Φ150mm tubes
(Pic. 5.11.1). At least two of them must open. The outlets (1 & 2) are the most efficient for heating.
For the outlets (1 to 4): Open the pre-shaped openings with a hummer and connect the exit nozzles (like Pic. 5.11.2),
connect the hot air tubes and tighten them with clamps. Also, they must be insulated with stone wool. Finally, cover all
the exits at the paneling with adjustable grilles.

Pic. 5.10.1
In each case, you must break the sheet metal at the point where the intake’s nozzle is
adjusted.

-Connection of motor and thermostat
Open the pre-shaped openings with a hummer, place the Ø150mm tubes at the edges of the motor (right, left) and
tighten them with clamps (Pic. 5.11.3).
Connect the other edge of each tube with openings at the areas from which you want to pump air for the motor
(Pic. 5.11.4). If the intake for the combustion air is close to the air inlet of the motor, then there must be a minimum
distance of 50cm between them.
Use adjustable grilles in order to close the tubes’ openings and be sure that they must be installed at places where they
will not be covered. Additionally, if they are located at an outer area, wire net must be used, in order insects not to
enter.
For the placement of the sensor and the control panel, follow the following instructions:
Pic. 5.11.3 Pic. 5.11.4
Pic. 5.11.5: The sensor of the thermostat must be
placed at the air duct, approximately 15cm above
of the cover of the fireplace.
Pic. 5.11.6: Depending on the side from which the motor is
supplied with external air, the thermostat must be installed
at the antidiametric air duct.
For the motors’ intake, you can use either external or internal air.
For installations at places smaller than 70m
2
, it is recommended one tube to pump
external and one internal air.
For installations at places bigger than 70m
2
, it is recommended both tubes to pump
internal air.
Do not let the motor without the tubes, because there is danger that the smoke from the
combustion chamber will enter into the heating air.

Pic. 5.11.7: Connect and install the electronic control panel with the motor, according to the graph.
The electric installation must be done EXCLUSIVELY only by
specialized staff.
Place the panel of the thermostat at a cold place in order overheating of electric parts
to be avoided.

5.12. Installation examples with hot air supply to more than one room
) The following graph (Pic. 5.12.1)
describes the main tube (distributor) of
hot air which heats up more than one
room. The max length of the distributor is
12m when the two front tubes of the
fireplace are connected with a
mixer/junction (made of galvanized and
smooth sheet). Also, use smooth metallic
tube for the 12m of the main tube (Pic.
5.12.1). The tube from the fireplace to
the mixer / junction can be made by
flexible aluminum tube (max 3m per
tube).
Β) Otherwise, 6+6m in a configuration of 2 tubes (Pic. 5.12.2) for
different paths.
Γ) When the galvanized cover and the hot air system
(motor) do not exist, then another way to distribute air in
more rooms, can be seen in (Pic. 5.12.3). From the point
1, the hot air is sucked by the linear ventilator (point 2).
Through an air vent system, the hot air finally ends up at
the rooms that we want to heat up (points 3).
In that case, it is necessary to open holes (at least one)
(point 4) at the gladding of the fireplace that you will
construct, in order decompression to be avoided. These
openings must be free and not able to be covered. Also
their minimum surface must be 300cm
2
, for example a
grille which size is 30x10cm.
In general, all the tubes and the mixers/junctions must be covered with glass wool (at least 3cm). Also, for the proper
circulation of the air, there must be free flow of the air through these rooms, in order all the rooms to have the same
temperature.

6.3. General information
-When the fireplace paint dries
ARTE ® products are painted in spray booth with as more environmentally friendly and ecological colors as possible.
There is although a possibility that the first few times the fireplace is lighted, the paint emits an odor. Let the fire burn
with intense convection until all traces of gas disappear and there is no longer a smell. The gas is not toxic, but the
room should be well ventilated.
-Incineration preparation
Prepare sufficient amount of chopped firewood, kindling and torches or branches. Before using the wood, it is
recommended to store them in a warm place for a few days.
-Combustion air intake
A lthough the fireplace uses external air for combustion, make sure that the room is ventilated adequately when the
fireplace operates with fresh air. When you open the door of the combustion chamber for adding firewood there
should be no pressure difference between outdoor and indoor air in the room, so it is good to keep the door open for
about 1.5cm for 5-6 seconds and then fully open it.
-Power failure (when there is a motor)
In case of power failure, you can still start or operate you ARTE® TREND fireplace normally. The only difference is that
because the motor will not function, it will not give directly the heat inside the room but with heat convention. That is
why we suggest you to use an UPS device with minimum power 1000VA (pure sine wave UPS), which will ensure you,
nonstop function of your fireplace for approximately an hour.
-Heating during seasonal change or in adverse weather conditions
When there is high humidity or fog, with temperatures ≥15 °C, but also during the transitional period between
seasons, it is recommended to light a test fire before normally lighting the fireplace. This will displace the cold, heavy
air that is inside the flue and create the right conditions for optimum smoke dissipation.
6.4. Usage of the detachable handle (Optional for type h fireplace)
The cold handle is a tool that you can use in order to open the sliding door of a Type h fireplace, even if the surfaces of
the fireplace are extremely hot. (Pic. 6.4.1).
The cold handle is provided in the standard edition combined with a magnetic base in order to place it on the wall
(Pic. 6.4.2).
In order to install the detachable handle, screw the two buckles at the lower part of the door with 2 sheet metal screws
and washers (Pic. 6.4.3).
Pic. 6.4.1 Pic. 6.4.2 Pic. 6.4.3
The air intake must be positioned so as not to allow being covered.
During a power failure, the hot air distribution motor stops
.
But the ARTE ® TREND fireplace is safe.
