1. Installation
These appliances are manufactured in compliance with European standards.
For the installation of these stoves, the standards in force at the local and European levels
also have to be complied with.
Public administrations or your retailer will be able to provide you with information about the
rules to follow. Do not hesitate to contact them.
(!) Only use parts and components approved by Bodart & Gonay, otherwise the
manufacturer's warranty on this stove will be lost! Any modification to the appliance is also
prohibited without the prior consent of Bodart & Gonay.
The following prescriptions and recommendations are not exhaustive. Only a professional
can ensure a reliable, safe and durable installation.
(!) In order to get the most out of your appliance, we recommend that you call in a
professional for its installation and maintenance.
To work properly, this appliance needs air:
- For wood combustion (combustion air);
- To heat the home (convection air);
- To prevent overheating of the appliance and cladding (decompression air).
To allow air to circulate properly and perform its function, air inlets and outlets must be of
sufficient size and placed in the right places.
1.1. Combustion air.
In a wood-burning stove, combustion requires a certain amount of air. This unit is designed
to draw combustion air from outside the building [airtight installation] or from inside.
Where possible, we recommend connection of the air intake to the outside of the home, in
accordance with the instructions below.
Outside air intake (tight)
When the door is closed, the stove is airtight. When in operation, it does not consume air
from the room, but from outside the home through a duct between the outside and one of
the two air inlets of the appliance.

5
These two air inlets are plugged on delivery. Only one of them must be tightly connected to
the outside air duct.
This connection is made using a 125-mm diameter flue collar supplied with the appliance,
which must be fixed to the appliance using the 4 M6 screws (10mm socket) used to fix the
plug.
The air supply duct, connected to the collar, must have the following characteristics:
- 125-mm diameter
- Maximum length of 10 m, counting 1m per bend at 90° (e.g. max. 6m and 4 bends).
It is recommended to use a smooth pipe inside, and to avoid the use of flexible spiral ducts.
The duct can be made of PVC or metal.
If a PVC duct is used, direct contact between PVC and heating element must be avoided.
It is preferable to insulate the outside air duct in all areas of the heated volume of the
dwelling to avoid condensation on the outer surfaces of the duct.
On the outside, the duct ends in an air intake grate with the following characteristics:
- Grate preventing the duct from being squeezed and which can be cleaned;
- located at min 50cm from the ground (excluding snow);
- Net clear cross-section of min 120 cm².
If the grate has 60% clear cross-section, the grate must therefore measure 200cm² (e.g.
10cm by 20cm).
[Caution] Avoid taking air in a low-pressure area!
Inside air intake
In this case, the stove in operation consumes the air in the room.
For the appliance to take in air from the room, both plugs must be left on the rear air inlets,
and the closing plate of the air box must be removed.
To remove this plate, first make sure that the motor of the air box is in its closed position. To
do so, switch off the power supply for 20 seconds, and then switch on the power supply
again. When starting, the engine is switched to the closed position (towards you).
Then open the ash pan, remove the two M5 fastening screws (8mm socket), and remove the
plate by pivoting the lower part towards you.
This plate, once removed, allows the air from the room to enter the device.
Air box closed –Air box opening –Air box opened
This air, which will be consumed and evacuated through the chimney, must be able to enter
the room where the appliance is installed. It is therefore necessary to ensure that there is
sufficient air supply through a door, window, or an opening created on purpose.

6
The air inlet must have a minimum cross-section of 120cm² (corresponding to a diameter of
125mm). This air must be able to flow freely between the outside and the entrance of the
appliance.
In the following cases:
- Construction with proper tightness (new construction),
- Presence of mechanical ventilation (type C or D),
- Presence of an exhaust hood,
a specific air inlet must be provided, or even preferably an external air intake connection
(previous case)
1.2. Convection air.
The convection air is the air drawn from the room and heated by the stove, through contact
with the outside of the heating element.
Convection air inlet
Through the filter at the bottom of the door. To ensure sufficient airflow, the filter must be
cleaned regularly.
Hot air outlet
- In front through the gap above the door;
- Through the hot air ducts if installed.
Hot air ducts
The presence of hot air ducts is not essential, but it allows better distributing the heat to an
adjacent room.
They must be connected to the warm air outlets using the flue collars included, and transfer
the hot air outside the cladding. Hot air can reach over 200°C. Use suitable materials (e.g.
aluminium, galvanised steel, stainless steel). Insulate combustible materials on the ceiling
and on the walls around the hot air outlets.
Take care to limit the pressure drop of these warm air pipes by limiting the number of
elbows and respecting the passage sections.
The hot air outlets must always be located above the level of the stove. The more difference
in height between the stove and the outlet, the greater the flow rate.
In case of hot air outlets feeding into another room, provide passages for ductwork and air
return. As illustrated beside, the convection air circuit cannot be broken under any
circumstances.
The supply of these outputs is limited to a maximum of 1 kW per output.

7
Note: Hot air ducts cannot be connected directly to a double flow ventilation system. The
temperature of the air is very high and could damage the exchanger.
1.3. Decompression air.
Decompression air is the air that circulates between the appliance and the casing.
When the appliance is installed in a casing designed to withstand high temperatures and
made exclusively of fire-resistant materials, decompression is not necessary.
In other cases, it is essential to cool the casing down through natural air circulation, i.e.
decompression air.
In order to guarantee this air circulation, it is necessary to supply:
- An air inlet at the bottom of the cladding of 200 cm² effective;
- An outlet with an equivalent cross-section above, ideally located 20 to 30 cm below ceiling
level;
- A 5 cm free space around the stove.
1.4. Chimney flue.
Prescriptions
The chimney flue must be built following best practice. In addition, to ensure the appliance
works properly, the following rules must be followed.
The minimum height is 4m (distance between connection and outlet).
The flue must not have more than 2 elbows (changes of direction). The offset angles
(compared to vertical) must be a maximum of 45°.
The cross-section of the flue must be greater than or equal to the cross-section of the stove
outlet.
In case of the Infire 740 Easy, a reduction of 20% of the nominal diameter is allowed for a
vertical configuration of minimum 6 meters (while keeping the original section over the
longest possible length).
The chimney flue must be protected from cold and humidity. It is recommended to insulate
the flue (or choose an insulated flue) with a high temperature resistant material to prevent
the fumes from cooling down too quickly and thus causing condensation.
The flue must make annual maintenance possible(soot removal).
The entire length of the flue pipe, from the stove to the outside, must:
- be tight,
- be clean and well-maintained (soot-removal),
- be stable and properly fixed
- be of a section compatible with the smoke outlet diameter of the stove.

8
- allow the drainage of condensates
- allow residues to drain into the firebox when sweeping.
Connect only one appliance per flue.
The chimney outlet (stump) must be located outside wind influence zones and outside the
depression zone of the building. It must also be fitted with a cap to prevent rainwater from
draining into the stove.
If these requirements cannot be guaranteed the flue must be lined, renovated or a new
chimney must be installed.
(!) Failure to comply with these recommendations may lead to various consequences
(difficult lighting, backflow, too little or too much draught, damage to the appliance or
chimney flue, risk of fire, etc.). Do not hesitate to ask a professional for advice.
"Efficience" ducts (Poujoulat triple skin)
The Infire Easy stoves are compatible with the "Efficience" ducts from the Poujoulat
manufacturer. The "Efficience" duct must be a minimum of 4m, and a maximum of 8m high.
Refer to the recommendation sheet from Poujoulat.
Connection to the chimney flue
The stove is equipped with an outlet flue collar to connect a 180mm duct.
The connection to the chimney flue must be tight.
For connection to a flexible duct, use the stainless steel flue collar supplied. Securely fix the
flexible duct to the stainless steel flue collar, and fix the stainless steel flue collar to the
heater with the two M5 screws (8mm socket) present on the heating element.
1.5. Electrical connection.
As the stove is equipped with electronic ventilation and combustion control, an electrical
source (220 VAC 50Hz) must be available nearby.
See chapter "Easy System".
1.6. Finishing frame.
There are 3 types of standard frameworks available:
- 4mm frame (see picture on the left);
- 30mm 4-sided frame (see image on the right);
- 30mm 3-sided frame.
To fit or remove the frame, first remove the door and the side covers.
To remove the door, open it 90° and lift it 3cm.

9
The side covers are held in place by pressure on the heating element with 2 springs. To
remove these, simply move them towards you.
The frame is fixed to the upper and lower body parts with 4 M6 fixing nuts (10mm spanner).
Adjustment is possible (+-12mm) in order to be able to align the frame on the cladding.
1.7. Inner elements.
All the inner parts are removable for replacement, and to give access to the technical
elements located in the appliance (baffle, flap ...). These parts are made either of stainless
steel or vermiculite (Skamolex). These different parts must be disassembled in a specific
order, following the instructions below.
(!) Vermiculite parts are fragile (especially in the presence of moisture). To avoid any
damage, handle them with care.
Baffles
This stove is equipped with baffles that promote heat exchange with the heating element
and with the convection air, offering maximum efficiency.
The lower Skamolex baffle is simply fitted. To remove it, lift it 1cm and move it towards you.
Once this baffle has been removed, this gives you access to two other baffles, called
"guillotine baffles".
These allow you to change the cross-section of the flue gas passage so that you can adapt
(adjust) the appliance to the chimney draught. These two baffles must be set identically on
the left and right sides.
To modify the setting, unscrew the two M5 screws (8mm socket), position the baffle in one
of the 6 lugs then retighten the screws. When the baffle plate is in the lower position, it
reduces the flow cross-section and limits the smoke flow. These guillotine baffles will
therefore be placed in low position in case of a high draft chimney (high chimney). And
conversely, the guillotine baffles will be raised when the chimney draught is low.
Floor
In order to dismantle the removable parts of the combustion chamber, first remove the
stove floor:
- remove the combustion grate (using the convection air key, for example);
- remove the two floor bricks;
- remove the insulation plates: beware, they are fragile.
Now you can access the fixing screws of the front and rear air distributors.

10
Blockholder set
The blockholder set is composed of the front air distributor, the log guard, the door
deflector and the vermiculite (with BG logo).
To take it apart, remove the 4 M5 fastening screws (8mm socket) located under the floor on
the heating element. Then remove the blockholder set, taking care not to damage the
vermiculite on the sides.
Sides
To remove the vermiculite from the sides, after having removed the vermiculite baffle, the
floor and the front fence, start removing the front vermiculite (towards you). Lift these
vermiculites from below with your index finger and tilt them inwards.
Then remove the other 2 pieces of vermiculite by moving the top of the brick towards you
and tilting it inwards.
Back
The vermiculite bricks at the back are held in place by a clamping spring on the left. First
remove this spring leaf. Then, to remove the bricks from the back, raise the bricks 5mm, tilt
the bottom of the bricks towards you, and lower the bricks to release them.
Finally remove the metal wedge on the right.
Rear air distributor
Once the back bricks have been removed, you can remove the rear air distributor by
unscrewing the 4 M5 screws (8mm socket). Then lift the rear air distributor to remove it (use
a screwdriver to lift it up if necessary).
Reassembling
For reassembly, repeat the same operations in the reverse order.
1.8. Installation and connections.
(!) At this stage, the paint has not been baked yet. It is therefore fragile. Consequently, the
appliance must be handled with the utmost care.
Check the strength, stability and load-bearing capacity of the structure where the appliance
is installed. Check the various minimum installation dimensions. Protect combustible
materials near the stove with 50mm of fire resistant thermal insulation.
Once the installation has been prepared in accordance with the above regulations, proceed
with the installation of the appliance.

11
1. On delivery, the appliance is secured on a pallet with 4 screws. Unscrew them and fold
the legs against the stove body. Remove the door, the side covers and the finishing
frame to facilitate the installation of the appliance and the cladding (see previous
chapter).
2. Prepare the combustion air intake :
For an outdoor air intake installation, fix the flue collar:
- Either on the underside of the appliance: cut out the pre-cut part, remove the bolts and
place the flue collar.
- Either at the rear of the appliance: unscrew and remove the body cap (M4 screw, 7mm
socket), then remove the plug from the air intake (M6 screw, 10mm socket), and attach the
flue collar with these 4 screws.
For indoor air intake use :
- Remove the cover plate from the air box. See chapter "Indoor air intake" above.
3. Prepare the hot air ducts. When the appliance is delivered, the hot air vents are closed.
Unscrew the control flap(s) by removing the M4 screws (7mm socket), then fix the hot
air collars. The opening and closing of the additional hot air outlets are made directly
through the insert using the supplied wrench.
4. Prepare the connection of the appliance to the chimney flue.
5. Insert and position the stove in the niche at the right height and level (left/right and
front/rear), taking into account that the front panel and the glass pane are in the same
plane.
6. Connect the combustion air intake. If you do not use the outside air intake, please read
the installation recommendations at the chapter "Combustion air".
7. Connect any hot air ducts to the hot air flue collars.
8. Make the connection between the stove and the chimney following best practice and in
compliance with local regulations.
9. Connect the appliance to the electrical supply (see chapter "Easy System").

12
10. Reinstall the frame, the side covers and the door.
1.9. Cladding.
The cladding is the structure used to support and cover the stove. Its design and its
construction must comply with best practice.
Combustible materials shall not be used in the immediate vicinity of the stove, hot air
outlets and chimney flue. It must be noted that, when opening the door, hot embers can be
thrown out.
The safety distance to be provided for the stove cladding depends on the combustibility
level of the material used (see standard NF DTU 24.1 and 24.2). If it is below the minimum
safety distances, it shall be protected with insulating materials.
Use non-combustible materials and high-temperature insulation, such as certain types of
rock wool. In any case, these materials must not come into contact with the convection air.
Do not use glass wool.
Cladding without decompression air
If the unit is installed in a non-ventilated enclosure, make sure that all materials in the
vicinity of the unit are non-combustible and fire-resistant.
Should this not be the case, the appliance shall be completely insulated (on all 5 sides) with
50mm of fire resistant insulation.
Note that in case of a non-ventilated cladding, the technical elements of the stove
(electronics, motors ...) will be subjected to higher temperatures.
Ventilated cladding (with decompression air)
This type of cladding is preferable since it allows limiting the temperature of the technical
elements, and thus increasing their lifespan.
To ensure a proper circulation of decompression air, it is advisable to leave a free space of
minimum 5 cm around the stove (2 sides and bottom), and 15cm above the stove.
The bottom of the stove can either be placed on a 5cm thick fire-resistant insulating
material, or on a partially ventilated, fire resistant structure. The structure supporting the
stove must be flat, levelled, and upright with the sides of the heating element.
1. Cladding
2. Insulating material
3. Air gap
4. Stove
The free space above the stove must allow decompression air from the back and sides to flow
freely to the decompression air outlets.

13
(!) Do not forget the minimum cross-sections of the decompression air flows.
Once the cladding has been completed, replace all the internal parts of the appliance, the
frame, the side covers and the door.
1.10. Easy system.
This stove is equipped with the "Easy" system, which ensures control of ventilation and
combustion, with the aim of making the appliance easier to use, increasing its performance
(efficiency) and reducing its emissions.
This system, patented by Bodart & Gonay, represents a major innovation in the field of wood
heating appliances.
Description of the elements
The system is composed of the following elements:
- A control panel integrated into the removable wicket door;
- The main electronic board;
- Two fans;
- A motor unit to control the air flap;
- A mobile air distribution flap;
- A temperature sensor (thermocouple type);
- 3 cables;
- An external 24VDC power supply.
Control panel
The control panel enables the user to set up the appliance. It also allows the technician to carry
out functional tests of the various components of the system.
It consists of two sets:
- On the left, the ventilation control;
- On the right, the fire regulation.
The various possible settings are explained in the chapter "Operation: Easy System".
At the back of the control panel, a block of 4 switches (DIP switch) allows configuring the Easy
system according to the type of device. See below.
Main electronic board
This board, located on the right side of the fireplace, is equipped with two buttons and
connectors:
- Door switch;

14
- Led-button for error display and reset;
- Air box motor connector;
- Fan connectors;
- 24VDC connector (external power supply);
- Control panel connector;
- Thermocouple connector (temperature sensor).
The main board collects the information given by the control panel, the door switch and the
thermocouple, and controls the fans and the motor unit of the air box. The main board is also
equipped with a PLC communication system that allows communicating information to optional
extension boards via the 24VDC power supply cable.
Fans
Two fans blow out air between the heating element and the case to improve heat recovery. This
increases heat diffusion and distribution in the room.
The right-hand fan is connected directly to the main board. The left-hand fan is connected by
means of a cable running through a metal groove underneath the appliance, between the left
side and the main board.
The main electronic board allows the user to automatically vary the fan speed and to check their
operating condition.
Engine unit
It consists of a stepper motor, a motor nut, two compression springs and an electromagnet. It
enables the air valve of the air box to move. This movement allows the air passages of different
channels to be modified, carrying the combustion air to various places in the combustion
chamber:
- Air under the grate;
- Primary air (front and rear distributors);
- Secondary air (post-combustion);
- Smoke extraction air (window cleaning).
A safety system, integrated to the Easy system, allows the complete closure of the primary air in
case of power failure. When the system is no longer powered, the fans no longer operate and
the appliance is no longer cooled efficiently. By shutting off the primary air inlets (grate and
distributors), this safety system reduces the power of the appliance to limit the risk of
overheating. In this case however, the user can continue to use the appliance (supplied
exclusively with secondary air) at reduced power.
Mobile air distribution flap

15
This unit consists of the two shafts and the air distribution flap, fixed together by means of two
spring leaves. This assembly is operated either by the motor or by the safety system.
The flap has different openings which, depending on its position, may coincide or not with
openings on the heating element, allowing air passages to be opened or closed in different
ducts.
The flap is held on the heating element by spring leaves. The flap slides on the heating element.
A special coating is applied to the flap. It allows preventing corrosion and limiting friction
between these two parts.
(!) Never apply grease or other lubricants between the flap and the heating element! Mixed
with dust and ashes, these lubricants will have a negative effect on the sliding of the flap.
Temperature sensor
A thermocouple type temperature sensor is bolted above the right side of the heating element.
It allows the main board to monitor the evolution of the temperature of the flue gases to
manage the air distribution flap.
This sensor appears in the form of a washer. It is bolted with an M6 screw (10mm spanner).
This sensor has a very long life span. However, should it be replaced, proceed as follows:
- remove the door, side covers and frame;
- Unscrew the sensor with a 10mm open-end ratchet spanner;
- replace the probe, and reassemble the parts.
External 24VDC power supply
The 24V power supply unit provides the main electronic board with the necessary voltage and
current. Always place this power supply so that it remains accessible. The power supply can also
be placed in a block, but must remain accessible for possible replacement.
(!) Never install the power supply unit in a place that is too hot, or against the appliance (max.
50°C).
Connect a 220VAC power supply to the Wago connections supplied with the unit.
This power supply must be permanent. The standby consumption of the system is 0.4W.
Access to the elements
To access the elements, remove the wicket door (control panel) by pulling the lock to the right.
Then move the door 1 cm to the left to take it off its axis. Next, disconnect the cable from the
control panel.
To remove the fans:

16
- First unplug the connectors from the fan by pressing the clip;
- remove the 2 or 3 M5 screws using an 8mm socket; be careful not to drop the screws and not
to damage the fan blades.
To take off the electronic board:
- remove the right side cover;
- remove the right fan;
- Unscrew the M5 screw (8mm socket) holding the board, located above the door switch.
Then pull the board 20cm towards you to access the connectors. The cables are attached to the
card holder with cable ties.
Connections
The various cables have to be connected to the main board.
From top to bottom:
- The cable of the air box motor unit;
- The left fan cable;
- The 24VDC power supply cable;
- The control panel cable;
- The temperature sensor (thermocouple).
In order to avoid damaging the connectors while handling the board, these cables are attached
to the board support with cable ties.
The right fan is connected directly to the main board, under the led button.
The power supply can be moved to the left side or to the right side. The right fan is connected
directly to the main board, under the led button.
The power supply can be moved to the left side or to the right side. To do this, loosen the power
cable and bring it in through the left side of the appliance. Use the steel cable duct to route the
cable to the left side or right side of the appliance.
When connecting the 24V power supply cable to the main board, please make sure to leave at
least 20cm of free cable (slack) inside the appliance to be able to dismantle the card and remove
it effortlessly.
It is advisable to attach the power cable to the body side using cable ties.
Adjustment
The door switch integrated to the main board allows managing ventilation and fire. Its role is
therefore essential for the correct operation of the appliance.
This door switch is operated by a metal bracket bolted to the side of the door. This bracket must
be adjusted precisely. The push button must be switched when the door is closed, and not
before.

17
(!) If the bracket is placed too far forward, it may damage the door switch and the electronic
board.
Setting
The electronic board of the control panel has a 4-switch box (DIP switch) which allows setting up
the board for the device in which it is installed.
For the Infire Easy range, here are the possible configurations:
- Infire Easy 670 & 740: "0000", all switches in lower position;
- Infire Easy 810: "1000", switch 1 up, all others in lower position;
- Infire Easy 950: "0100", switch 2 up, all others in lower position;
The configuration is set up in-factory. However, should this configuration be modified:
- Modify the configuration;
- Check that the control panel is properly connected to the main board;
- Restart the main board.
There are two ways to restart the board:
- Turn off the power supply for 20 seconds and then turn it on again;
- Reset the board (see next chapter).
Reset of the main board
A long 5-second press on the led-button will restart the electronic board.
Troubleshooting
The main electronic board constantly monitors the status of the various components of the
appliance. When a malfunction is detected, the led-button of the main board lights up red and,
depending on the type of malfunction detected, red LEDs light up on the control panel.
Fan control
If the fan(s) do(es) not work as expected, the ventilation LED will turn red. Here are the different
faults detected:
- Clogging of a fan --> clean the blades;
- Mechanical problem: bearing, object stuck in the fan;
- Electrical power supply problem;
- Problem with the cables (or connectors) between the board and the fan(s).
Test mode

18
The Easy system includes a test mode that allows verification of the ventilation and fire
management system. To activate the test mode, pull the control panel slightly towards you, and
press the red button on the right side of the control panel for 5 seconds.
Once the test mode is activated, the ventilation and light management LEDs will flash.
Pressing this red button again briefly will allow you to return to the normal operating mode.
Ventilation test
In test mode, depending on the position of the cursor, the operation must be as follows:
- Cursor on the left, on minimum position: fans OFF when the door is open, fans on maximum
speed when the door is closed;
- Cursor on the right: fans ON and speed depending on the cursor position.
(!) Never leave the board in test mode while the appliance is in operation.
Air box engine test
The main board can also detect possible blocking of the air box mobile air flap. If more than one
blocking is detected, the fire management display led will display red. Here are the different
possible causes of a blocking of the mechanism:
- Motor and mobile air flap out of alignment;
- Object trapped between the flap and the heating element;
- Heavy soiling of the flap.
In test mode, depending on the position of the cursor, the mobile air flap swings between its
minimum and maximum position. This test allows detecting a possible motor blocking.
(!) Never leave the board in test mode while the appliance is in operation.
If the motor blocks before reaching its closed position (cursor positioned on the left), it is most
likely a misalignment problem between the motor shaft and the mobile air flap.
The motor and the flap can only be dismantled by technicians trained by Bodart & Gonay, as
these interventions require a thorough knowledge of the system.
Other failures
The following problems are also detected
- Communication problem with the control panel;
- Problem with the temperature sensor (thermocouple).
1.11. First fire.
The first fire is important, and enables:

19
- The baking of the paint;
- The adjustment of the baffles (guillotine baffles);
- Checking that the appliance works properly.
(!) Ventilate the room to eliminate paint smells, and do not touch the stove.
Before lighting the first fire:
- Remove dust from visible painted surfaces;
- Pre-adjust the baffles according to the supposed chimney draught.
The adjustment of the "guillotine baffles" is essential. They allow modifying the cross-section of
the combustion gas passage to be able to adapt (adjust) the appliance to the chimney draught.
These two baffles must be set identically on the left and on the right.
To modify the adjustment, unscrew the two M5 screws (8mm socket), position the baffle plate
in one of the 6 lugs and then tighten the screws. When the baffle is in the lower position, it
reduces the passage cross section and limits the smoke flow. These guillotine baffles will
therefore be set in the lower position in cases of high-draught chimneys (high chimneys). And
conversely, the guillotine baffles will be lifted when the draught of the chimney is weak.
Opening the baffle (lifting up) leads to:
- (-) a loss of yield;
- (+) a reduced risk of backflow;
- (+) improved smoke extraction from the glass pane.
Closing the baffle (lowering) leads to:
- (+) an increased yield;
- (-) an increased risk of backflow;
- (-) reduced smoke extraction from the glass pane.
It is therefore a question of finding the right compromise.
Note the ideal position for your chimney so that it can be correctly positioned again after
sweeping.
During the first fire, the door seal is put in place.
It may therefore be needed to adjust the door tightness after this first fire.

2.1. Description of the appliance
1. The door structure is placed behind the glass pane, and the door jambs are angled inwards.
This offers a clear view of the fire.
2. The two-position latch allows the door to be left ajar when lighting the fire to prevent
condensation on the glass pane.
3. The combustion chamber is deep and stepped, allowing the fire bed to be concentrated in the
centre of the fireplace. This allows greater operating flexibility. The tightness of the stove is
guaranteed by a complete welding of the various components and the presence of metal core
seals on the door.
4. The stainless steel primary air distributors can be easily removed.
5 The log guard protects the glass pane.
6 Secondary air and smoke extraction air are heated through the air ducts that surround the
heating element.
7 The smoke extraction air is guided over the glass pane. The deflectors allow this air to be
guided on the glass pane to ensure a clean window.
8. The baffles guide and slow down the combustion gases to improve the efficiency of the
appliance. The lower baffle made of vermiculite allows a maximum amount of heat to be
returned to the combustion bed. Then, two "guillotine baffles" allow modifying the cross-
section of the gas passage to adapt the fireplace to the chimney draught.
9. The Easy system is an electronic combustion control system. Depending on the information
given by the stove temperature sensor, the door switch, and the position of the cursor, the
motor moves the air distribution flap to bring air to the right place at the right time.
10. The control panel of the Easy system is integrated in the door. Clear and easy to use, it
allows adjustment of the ventilation and fire.
11. The wicket door is equipped with a large filter that retains dust to limit the clogging of the
fan and heat exchangers. It is discreet and allows hiding all the technical components. It can be
easily removed for a better access to these components.
12. The ash pan allows ashes to be collected. It is placed on a tray that can also be used as a lid.
13. Both fans are particularly quiet. The Easy system ensures automatic starting and dimming.
The control panel allows the user to select the speed and operating mode. A door switch turns
ventilation off when the door is open.
14. Aluminium heat exchangers allow maximum energy recovery on the heating element to
maximise the efficiency of the appliance.
15. Warm air outlets allow connecting ducts to distribute generated heat into the home.
16. The inside of the appliance is protected by various removable vermiculite panels.
