For manufacturing reasons, dimensional variations may occur compared to theoretical
dimensions. This is due to tolerance and manufacturing imperatives. In addition, given
the expansion of the various materials, the appliance may show some slight
deformation when hot.

1.1. RESPONSIBILITIES
1.1.1. INSTALLER S RESPONSIBILITIES
The person or company that carries out the installation of the fireplace is responsible for this
installation, and also takes responsibility for the existing parts (chimney flue…)
They are hence expected to check the state of the existing installation and to carry out the
necessary modifications to comply with current regulations.
1.1.2. OBSERVANCE OF REGULATIONS
The instructions and recommendations of the guide come in addition to current regulations. They
do not replace them. We recommend that you familiarise yourself with the documents mentioned
below. The installation of the appliance must be carried out following the DTU 24.2.2 technical
guidelines. The chimney flue to which the appliance will be connected must comply with the DTU
24.1 and 24.2.2 guidelines or it will be the object of a technical notice from the C.S.T.B. (French
Scientific and Technical Buildling Centre).
Since this fireplace is in compliance with current standards, it is strictly forbidden to modify the
appliance in any way.
1.2. CHIMNEY FLUE
In the case of a chimney flue ending at the level of the ceiling (installation prior to the
implementation of the current DTU), we draw your attention on the following requirements:
- either a junction of the connecting duct and the chimney duct ensuring the tightness and the
thermal resistance of the installation,
- or appropriate casing of the throat at the stack base, following the rules of fire spacing.
1.2.1. NEW FLUE
The duct must be made with materials in compliance with current standards and with technical
notice from the CSTB. The duct must also be able to sustain the maximum temperature of the
appliance. The duct must be installed following the DTU guidelines, in particular regarding its
thermal insulation.
1.2.2. EXISTING FLUE
One must check :
- - the compatibility of the duct with the use of wood as fuel,
- - the tightness and vacuity of the duct (see DTU 24.1),
- - its general stability,
1.INSTALLATION GUIDE

16
If the duct is not compatible, it is necessary to :
- either carry out a casing (see DTU 24.1) following a procedure with technical notice in favour of
this particular use,
- install a duct lining,
- or install a new duct adapted to this use.
The tubing can descend to the nozzle of the appliance, if it is the object of a technical notice for the
use as connecting duct.
1.2.3. DIMENSIONS OF THE CHIMNEY FLUE
The chimney flue must have a minimum rectangular or square section of X cm2 and a length/width
ratio of less than 2 or an equivalent section of minimum hydraulic diameter Øeq. mm. In the case
of lining, this section can be brought back to CH cm2.
In the case of casing, and under certain conditions, the minimum diameter can be brought back to
TU mm. It is highly recommended to have a duct of identical hydraulic diameter as the vent, i.e. of
diameter Øint. mm (Female nozzle Øint). Moreover, the top of the chimney must be above the roof
ridge by at least 40 cm. In any case, and in order for the fireplace to operate properly, the draft
(TI) of the duct must be between 10 and 30 Pa (1 to 3 mm of water column). Outside these
ranges, an insufficient draft will lead to fume backdrafts and an excessive draft will lead to
runaway combustion and fireplace damage.
The draft can be regulated using a draft moderator set to 2 mm of water column.
Ø int X Ø eq. CH mini TU mini
230 mm 400 cm² 200 mm 350 cm² 180 mm
1.2.4. DISTANCE OF THE CHIMNEY FLUE IN RELATION TO FUEL MATERIALS
The minimum space between the inside wall of the duct and any combustible material is
16 cm unless a technical notice of the CSTB specifies a different distance.
Even if the fire spacing requirements are followed, a supplementary insulation made with M0 class
insulant will provide improved safety.
In the living spaces, the ducts must be covered with a dressing providing a thermal insulation
sufficient to limit the surface temperature to 50°C.
- Across attics and lofts, ducts must have suitable insulation.

17
1.3. OUTSIDE AIR INLET
If the ventilation inside the room where the appliance is installed is insufficient (new house or
controlled mechanical ventilation system), an inlet of outside air specifically for the fireplace
operation must be added.
1.4. INSTALLATION AND MINIMUM DIMENSIONS OF THE FIREPLACE
1.4.1. INSTALLATION OF THE FIREBOX
It is important to follow our recommendations, as follows, in order to ensure the optimum safety
for the user.
