Congratulations on the purchase of your new RAIS wood-burning stove. With this choice,
you have shown an appreciation of superior quality and good design.
Installation
Please follow these steps carefully.
First, the stove must be installed according to the building codes. Consult your local
building inspector or Fire Marshall before the installation. In some areas a “special permit”
is required.
In order for the stove to work an draw properly, sufficient air is important ! Be especially
aware of any mechanical fans (kitchen fans and bathroom, etc.), which may affect the
proper draw.
We suggest that you have a professional mason or stove installer do a complete check-up
of your existing chimney, liner, and flue.
In addition, make sure that the floor and sub-flooring is designed to carry the extra weight
of the stove. The floor plate material must be made of a non-combustible material !
When installing the stove the heat distribution to other rooms has to be taken into
consideration, as the RAIS Malta/Bando has a heating capacity of approx. 100 m² (at
standard ceiling height etc.).
Thermal Output 7 kW
Minimum pressure in the stove at output mentioned: - 16 Pa
Minimum distance to non-combustible material is 2 inches.
