1. Technical Specifications
Insert fires are designed to heat their surroundings and are perfect for those who already own a
fireplace and intend on refurbishing it or simply making it more efficient and cost-effective - such is the
case of wall-mounted fires or, as they are commonly known, "cassettes".
Our stores offer you a range of options to suit the design of your room. The Back Box and Box units
come in Basic, Slim and Duo variants, so you can find the right model to blend harmoniously into its
surroundings without any need for major alterations, as they do not insert into the wall.
* Technical specifications across the range:
* CE certified
* Average reloading time: ≤ 45 minutes
* Fuel: Dry firewood
* Voltage: 2 0 V (except Urano/Iaco, Basic/Slim/Duo - Box)
* Frequency: 50 Hz (except Urano/Iaco, Basic/Slim/Duo - Box)
* Power: 2x8,5 W (except Urano/Iaco, Basic/Slim/Duo - Box)
* Type of Equipment: intermittent use

3. Components
* Our insert fires are built entirely of top-quality carbon steel plate, with a thickness of 0,118 inches (
mm) and 0,19 inches (5 mm) in the combustion chamber and 0,019 inches (1,5mm) in the casing.
Other parts, such as the door and ash drawer, use 0,019 inches (1,5 mm) and 0,078 inches (2 mm)
plates;
* Heat-resistant ceramic glass. Can handle temperatures of up 1 82°F (750°C) in continuous use;
* The combustion chamber is coated with a heat-resistant material known as vermiculite, a hydro
silicate that can withstand temperatures in the order of 2012°F (1100°C). Its insulating properties allow
the unit to take better advantage of the heat, improve efficiency and provide greater protection for the
steel plate forming the combustion chamber walls, thus prolonging the life of the equipment.
* Heat-resistant paint for temperature peaks up to 1652°F (900°C) and operating temperatures in the
order of 1112°F (600°C);
* The ash grate is made from a 0,19 inches (5mm) thick plate.

4. Installation
ttention: all regulations and standards must be complied with when installing this stove.
Combustion Air and Gas Circulation
* This type of stove should be installed in a well-ventilated area. Any air intake grilles should be placed
in locations that are not liable to become blocked.
* Additional air inlets may be needed if the stove is used in simultaneous with other devises that
require an air supply. The installer should evaluate the situation according to the overall air flow
requirements.
* Use of this unit at the same time as other heating devices that require an air supply may necessitate
additional air inlets. The installer should assess the situation in light of total air flow requirements.
* Under normal operating conditions, the combustion gas flow should create a draught of 12 Pa one
metre above the throat of the flue. For proper installation, at least 78,7 inches (2 metres) of metal flue
tube with the same diameter as the unit's smoke outlet should be fitted vertically above the unit. After
this section, sections of tubing with a maximum angle of 45° may be used.
Figures 2 and illustrate correct and incorrect angles for installing a bend.
45º45º
Figure - Correct angle for bends Figure 3 - Incorrect angle for bends
* A single-walled tube installed on the outside of a building results in the condensation of water vapour
in the combustion gases. We therefore recommend the use of a double – walked insulated pipe.
* The pipe joints must be tightly sealed so that possible cracks do not allow air to enter.
45º45º45º

15
Correct sealing
Incorrect sealing
* The pipe connections must not allow bottlenecks (reductions) and the internal walls must be perfectly
smooth and free of obstacles; the hats must be placed in such a way that they do not hinder draught.
Incorrect Correct
* The flue outlet should allow for good air circulation and be placed at least 9, 7 inches (1 m) above
the top of any obstacle located within a distance of 9,8 feet ( m).
Incorrect Correct
* The same flue should not be used for more than one unit or open fireplace. With shared chimneys,
each flue should reach its outlet independently and these should be at the same level to ensure that
the air circulation expels the gases.
Minimum 1 m

Minimum istance
equal to the tube
iameter.

16
* Brick chimneys should not be too wide, as the smoke will cool as it disperses, reducing the draft. In
case of draft problems, a revolving chimney cowl can be installed.
Installation Location Requirements
* The unit should stand on a masonry hearth made of refractory bricks or another type of non-
combustible material.
* It is recommended for insert fires to be insulated with insulating material with a thickness of 1,57
inches (40 mm) and a density of 154 pounds (70 kg/m ) (except for the Back Box and Box ranges, in
their Basic, Slim and Duo variants). All units should be installed at least 15,7 inches (400 mm) from
combustible materials.
* Combustible materials should not be installed close to the walls of the unit.
* The floor on which the unit will stand must be able to support a permanent load of 2,2 pounds
(1kg)/cm². If the load capacity of the floor is insufficient, a solid plate can be used to distribute the load
over an area larger than the unit’s base.
* The building’s air intake grilles should not be obstructed.
* There should be a gap of around 0,19 inches (5 mm) between the unit and ornamental stones, to
allow room for the metal to expand. These should also be installed so as to allow the unit to be
removed without causing damage, if the need arises; This recommendation does not apply to the
Back Box and Box ranges, in their Basic, Slim and Duo variants.
* Ensure that the opening in the wall is of an appropriate size to house the unit.
* Materials/objects placed in front of the unit, as well as behind in the case of the Box range, should
be able to withstand the heat radiated from the glass of the door(s), so should not be combustible.
* Refractory cement or other refractory material should be applied on the chimney walls.
* The use of wood finishings may increase the risk of fire. Therefore, we recommend the use of
adequate insulation or that wood not be used at all.

17
Forced Ventilation
* The devices that are equipped with forced ventilation incorporate one tangential fan with power of
8 W and a min and max air flow of about 60 m /h and 165 m /h respectively, connected in parallel
with a thermostat, according to the following diagram.

Attention: all three wires in the power feed cable – ground, neutral and phase – should be connected.
We take no responsibility for any damage resulting from non-compliance with this warning.
* The electrical components should always be connected to the power supply.
* The cable used for the electrical connection should be silicon-coated and heat-resistant to 56°F
(180°C). If the power feed cable is damaged, it should only be replaced by a qualified technician.
* You should take care to not lay the cable where it may be crushed.
* The electrical installation should incorporate means to switch the unit off, with a minimum separation
of 0,118 inches ( mm) between the contacts, pursuant to the applicable legislation in force

Forced Ventilation (Double Sided Equipment)
* The devices that are equipped with forced ventilation incorporate two tangential fans with power of
