Carefully comply with the precautionary measures/safety regulations below:

Only install and maintain the fire if you are a trained installer of woodburning appliances.
Only install the fire in a space where the location, the technical construction and the activity in this space cannot involve any danger due to the burning of the fire.
Depending on the type of suspension, install the fire on a floor, against a wall or on a ceiling with sufficient load bearing capacity.
Take account of any combustible chimney beams above the fire. Remove them or apply sufficient non-combustible insulation material according to the construction regulations under European fire classification A1 EN 13501-1.
If you find other combustible materials, apply sufficient non-combustible insulation material according to the construction regulations under European fire classification A1 EN 13501-1.
When installing a free-standing fire take account of the minimum required distance from the fire to a non-combustible wall. This distance amounts to 50 mm.
Use heater piping material that at least suffices with regard to EN 1856-2 T600.
When installing the fire and/or the flue pipes respect the minimum distance to combustible objects and materials (see Annex 1, Table 2 and the data plate at the front of this installation manual).
Lay a protective floor plate if the floor is combustible (see section 5.7).
Never cover a free-standing fire and/or pack it with an insulation blanket or any other material.
Connect the fire to a suitable flue duct.
Remove any stop valve or slide in the flue duct of the existing open hearth.
Have the flue duct inspected and cleaned by a certified chimney sweeping company beforehand.
Do not make any changes to the fire yourself.
Only use original parts for replacement.
Ensure sufficient ventilation in the installation space. Fit an extra air supply opening if necessary.
Make sure that there is never underpressure in the installation space. If applicable, connect the outside air connection to immediately extract the combustion air to outside the home. Extra information if you are installing an insert/built-in appliance:
Use non-combustible and heat-resistant material according to European fire classification A1 EN 13501-1 for the chimney breast (including the upper face), the material in the chimney breast and the back wall against which the appliance is fitted. Plate material or stony materials can be used for this.
Take adequate measures according to the construction regulations to prevent too high temperatures (>85 °C) of a wall behind the chimney breast, including the materials and/or objects behind the wall.
Take account of the minimum required internal dimensions of the chimney breast.
Convection heat can be extracted from the chimney breast by using ventilation grates.
If applicable connect the convection opening with a flexible aluminium pipe and ventilation elements.

Installation

Regulations

Install the fire according to the applicable European, national, local and construction (installation) regulations.
Follow the instructions as given in this manual.
DRU Verwarming provides no guarantee to cover installation and maintenance of the fire and is not responsible for any resulting consequential damage.

Flue duct
The following requirements apply for the flue duct:

The flue duct must be inspected by a specialist beforehand.
The flue duct must be suitable for a woodburning appliance.
The fire must be connected to a single, one-piece flue duct.
The flue duct must be clean and leakproof.
For the flue duct use material that at least suffices with regard to EN 1856-1 T450.
For the fire pipe use material that at least suffices with regard to EN 1856-2 T600.
The offset in the flue duct may be a maximum of 1.5 metres with a maximum angle of 45 degrees from the horizontal plane, providing the chimney draught is not too weak.
With a rear fire connection the horizontal part of the flue duct may be a maximum of 500 mm.
With a rear fire connection to a vertical flue duct a T-piece with soot bag must be used.
The diameter of the flue duct must be at least equal to the diameter of the flue gas discharge pipe from the fire.
The flue duct draught must be at least 12 Pascal.
Fit a flue ventilator if the draught is too weak or if mechanical ventilation in the home causes underpressure in the installation space.
A flue gas regulator must be used in a duct with a (too) strong draught (30 – 40 Pa). The draught can then be controlled. Your appliance can be fitted with a “restrictor cap” to slow any strong draughts (if applicable see section 9 ‘Appliance-specific information’).
When fitting a flexible pipe always use a double-walled stainless steel-design with a “smooth” interior.
A rain cap must be fitted on top of the flue duct to limit rusting and damage to the interior lining of the fire due to moisture.
The flue duct must be self-supporting and may not rest on the fire.

Convection
When installing an appliance in a hollow chimney breast, it is necessary to create convection openings. If applicable, open the convection openings on the appliance, as described in chapter 9 ‘Appliance specific information’. If there are no convection openings on the appliance, you must create the required chimney breast aeration and de-aeration yourself. For this, you should assume a minimum chimney breast de-aeration of 200 cm2 (at the top side) and a minimum aeration of 200 cm2 (at the bottom side). Place the de- aeration at the top side at least 30 cm below the ceiling and at least 180 cm above the floor.

Appliances with fan(s)
Appliances that are made with one or more fans will heat a room more quickly and increase comfort. As soon as the fan is switched on you will be able to sense a pleasant, warm air flow. The fan can be set in various positions. The air flow can leave the appliance both at the front and via the convection openings. For more information on appliances with fans, we would like to refer you to chapter 9 “Appliance specific information”.

Country-specific installation requirements

Do not use an aerosol spray on or near the stove when it is alight.

The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas

Smoke Control Areas
Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the whole or part of the district of the authority to be a smoke control area. It is an offence to emit smoke from a chimney of a building, from a furnace or from any fixed boiler if located in a designated smoke control area. It is also an offence to acquire an “unauthorised fuel” for use within a smoke control area unless it is used in an “exempt” appliance (“exempted” from the controls which generally apply in the smoke control area). In England appliances are exempted by publication on a list by the Secretary of State in accordance with changes made to sections 20 and 21 of the Clean Air Act 1993 by section 15 of the Deregulation Act 2015. In Scotland appliances are exempted by publication on a list by Scottish Ministers under section 50 of the Regulatory Reform (Scotland) Act 2014. Similarly, In Northern Ireland appliances are exempted by publication on a list by the Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs under Section 16 of the Environmental Better regulation Act (Northern Ireland) 2016. In Wales appliances are exempted by regulations made by Welsh Ministers. Further information on the requirements of the Clean Air Act can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/smoke-control-area-rules Your local authority is responsible for implementing the Clean Air Act 1993 including designation and supervision of smoke control areas and you can contact them for details of Clean Air Act requirements.

Exempt appliances
Exempt appliances are appliances (ovens, wood burners and stoves) which have been exempted under the Clean Air Act 1993 or Clean Air (Northern Ireland) Order 1981. Appliances which are exempt for use in Smoke Control Areas: https://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/appliances.php

Outside air connection (if applicable)
Some fires can be provided with an outside air connection. For an optimum operation of the appliance, the following should be taken into account in case of an outside air connection:

The passage of the outside air connection and possibly the passage of a grate may not be smaller than the passage of the outside air connection on the fire.
Make sure the maximum underpressure created in the combustion air supply pipe is 4 pascal. If a higher underpressure is created, the fire will not function properly and (hot) flue gases may flow back into the supply pipe.
Prevent placing the outside air supply in an underpressure area on the outside of the house. If possible, place a supply pipe with T piece to 2 sides of the house.
The combustion air supply pipe may not be placed higher than the bottom of the fire. This will prevent flue gases from flowing back.
The combustion air pipe that is connected to the fire should be made of non combustible material.
The fire will function properly with a flexible pipe with a maximum length of 11 metres and 4 bends. In case of a longer pipe or more bends, we recommend placing a pipe with a larger diameter (100-125mm).
If a crawl space is properly aerated with open grates, it is allowed to retrieve combustion air from there. If there is no proper aeration in the crawl space, it is possible that harmful radon gases are drawn in. This is not allowed according to national regulations.

Further information on the outside air connection, if applicable, can be found in section 9 ‘Appliance specific information’.

Installing the fire, general
!Caution

Do not make any changes to the fire yourself.
Use clean fabric gloves and avoid fingerprints on the fire and flue pipes.
Depending on the type of suspension, install the fire on a floor, against a wall or on a ceiling with sufficient load bearing capacity.
Lay a fire-resistant floor plate if the floor is combustible. The floor plate in non combustible material must extend at least 300 mm away from the fire and be at least 300 mm wider than the fire. Check these distances before installation on the basis of applicable national/local laws.

Tip! A floor plate offers protection against smouldering ash and prevents the soiling of a marble or flagstone floor, for example. We therefore also advise using a fire-resistant floor plate when installing appliances on a wall or ceiling.

Use the fire’s dimensional sketch to see which fire pipe diameter you need (see Annex 1, table 2).
Use a fire pipe that at least meets the requirements of standards as established in EN 1856-2 T600.
Install the flue pipes in such a way that a fire hazard can never originate.
When installing a free-standing fire take account of the minimum required distance from the fire to a non-combustible wall. This distance amounts to 50 mm.
When installing the fire and/or flue pipes respect the minimum distance to combustible objects and materials as shown in Annex 1, table 2.
Take adequate measures to avoid too high temperatures in any walls behind the chimney breast. This also applies for materials and/or objects behind the wall.
Respect the flue duct requirements as described in paragraph. 5.2.
For any appliance-specific instructions we refer to section 9 ‘Appliance- specific information’.

Free-standing/design fires
Conversion from fire top connection to rear connection (if applicable).
The fire is supplied with a top connection for connecting the flue duct. The top connection can be converted to a rear connection.

To do this proceed as follows (see Annex 2, Fig. 2):

Take the flame baffle plate or baffle plates out of the fireplace (if applicable see section 9, ‘Appliance-specific information’).
Your appliance can be provided with an extra steel restrictor cap (if applicable see section 9, ‘Appliance-specific information’). Remove this by sliding the restrictor cap forwards and taking it out of the rails. This restrictor cap is not replaced with a rear connection.
Remove the fire’s convection back plate by undoing the bolts.
Remove the push-through plate from the convection back plate.
Remove the cover plate for the flue from the back wall of the fire by undoing the 2 or 3 nuts.
Remove the flue ring from the top plate by undoing the nuts and/or bolts.
Fit the flue ring on the back wall using the bolts and/or nuts.
Fasten the convection back plate again with the bolts.
Assemble the cover plate for the flue in the opening in the top plate using the nuts.
Replace the flame baffle plate or baffle plates in the reverse order.

Installing a free-standing fire, general

A free-standing fire is installed as follows:

Determine the fire location. The dimensions of the appliance are given in Annex 1, Table 2.
For any appliance-specific instructions we refer to section 9 ‘Appliance-specific information’.
Make sure there are no combustible materials present.
Lay the floor plate if applicable.
Place the fire on a blanket or sheet of cardboard (to avoid damaging the floor) then put it in the desired place.
Connect the fire to the flue duct. Follow the instructions of the supplier of the flue gas extraction system. Use heater piping material that at least suffices with regard to EN 1856-2 T600.
Lift the fire a little if necessary so the blanket or cardboard can be removed.
For completing installation we refer to paragraph 5.8.

With an existing chimney or chimney breast
To install an insert fire with an existing chimney or chimney breast proceed as follows:

Determine the fire location. The dimensions of the appliance are given in Annex 1, Table 2.
Leave a space of at least 10 mm between the fire and construction materials.
Check the size of the recess. If necessary the walls of the open hearth can be broken out a little. Make sure that the chimney top is still sufficiently supported.
If applicable make room for the connection of the convection openings (if applicable see section 9 ‘Appliance-specific information’) and section 5.3 ‘Convection’)) with a flexible aluminium pipe and ventilation elements (see section 5.4 ‘Appliances with fan(s)’. These accessories can be ordered from your supplier.
Be careful with the chimney breast plaster. Plaster beading makes the recess smaller.
Remove any existing valve from the open hearth or slide and clean the chimney top so all soot is removed.
Remove the fire door and disassemble the frame when it is supplied separately (see section 9 ‘Appliance-specific information’).
Carefully remove the inner lining plates (mark them), the baffle plate and (if present) the restrictor cap from the fire (if applicable see, section 9 ‘Appliance-specific information’).
Lay any bottom plate supplied where the fire is to be installed.
Turn the adjustable legs in with the hexagonal socket screwdriver supplied and check whether they are properly adjustable. There may still be some blasting grit present.
Make sure there is sufficient room under fire for the supply of combustion air when there is no outside air connection.
An outside air connection can be made (if applicable see section 9 ‘Appliance specific information’)
Carefully slide the fire into the hole. Make sure that no damage is caused.
If applicable connect the convection opening ( see section 5.3 ‘Convection’) with the flexible aluminium pipe and ventilation elements (see section 5.4 ‘Appliances with fan(s))’.
The fire may never support the flue.
Make a good, airtight seal between the fire and the flue, possibly with a register plate and preferably with a fixed fire pipe or stainless steel double-walled flexible pipe that at least suffices with regard to standard EN 1856-2 T600.
If applicable, and depending on national regulations, the connection between the existing flue duct and the fire may be plugged with heat-resistant ceramic wool Proceed as follows:
Check whether the open hearth valve has been removed.
Remove the frame (if the frame is already fitted).
Remove the bottom plates and turn the fire as far as possible downwards with the adjustable legs to make space for the ceramic wool.
Fill any space behind the fire with fire-resistant insulation material so no dirt can get in.
Remove the flame baffle plate.
Apply the ceramic wool between the top side of the fire and the chimney for an airtight connection.
Turn the fire up again with the adjustable legs and check whether the ceramic wool seals properly.
Replace the flame baffle plate (see section 9 ‘Appliance-specific information’).
!Caution After the chimney has been swept always check that the connection is still airtight.
A handy kit is available through your supplier for the direct connection of a stainless steel flexible pipe to the fire. The use of a kit is, however, not required for all appliances (if applicable see section 9 ‘Appliance-specific information’).
After the fire has been connected turn the adjustable legs with the Allen key supplied until the fire is in the desired position. Make sure that the combustion air supply is not blocked.
Replace the restrictor cap for the outflow, fit the inner lining plates in reverse order and place the baffle plate against the back wall and on the profiles (if applicable see section 9 ‘Appliance specific information’).
Use a torch or a thin screwdriver to check that the secondary ventilation holes in the back wall are directly facing the recesses in the interior lining.
If applicable replace the frame around the fire (if applicable see section 9 ‘Appliance-specific information’)

In a new situation

To install an insert fire with a newly built chimney breast proceed as follows:

Determine the fire location. The dimensions are given in Annex 1, Table 2.
Place the fire on a floor with a sufficient load bearing capacity.
If applicable make a recess for an outside air connection (if applicable see section 9 ‘Appliance-specific information’).
Use non-combustible and heat-resistant material according to European fire classification A1 EN 13501-1 for the plate on the floor, chimney breast (including the upper face), the material in the chimney breast and the back wall against which the appliance is fitted. Plate material or stony materials can be used for this.
Leave a space of at least 10 mm between the fire and construction materials.
Be careful with the chimney breast plaster. Plaster beading makes the recess smaller.
Take account of the expansion of the fire. Keep the fire free of plasterwork.
If there is a combustible ceiling, place a fire-resistant plate with a 10 cm thick heat-insulating layer on top 30 cm below the ceiling in the chimney breast.
If are there combustible materials (e.g. wooden floor parts/beams etc.) below or behind the fire, sufficient non-combustible insulation material according to European fire classification A1 EN 13501-1 must be applied. Comply with national regulations here.
If there is a combustible wall build a 10 cm-thick fire-safe wall.
Build the base or elevation with heat resistant material.
Place the steel plate supplied in the place for the fire. If applicable make a recess in it for the outside airconnection. Remove the fire door and disassemble the frame when it is supplied separately.
Remove the fire door and disassemble the frame when it is supplied separately (see section 9 ‘Appliance-specific information’).
Install the fire.
If applicable connect the outside air connection (see section 9 ‘Appliance specific information’).
If applicable connect the convection opening (see section 5.3 ‘Convection’) with the flexible aluminium pipe and ventilation elements (see section 5.4 ‘Appliances with fan(s))’. Keeps these elements at least 30 cm away from the ceiling.

Built-in fires

Determine the place of the fire.
Slide the build-in frame into the desired position.
Use non-combustible and heat-resistant material according to European fire classification A1 EN 13501-1 for the plate on the floor, chimney breast (including the upper face), the material in the chimney breast and the back wall against which the appliance is fitted. Plate material or stony materials can be used for this.
If there is a combustible ceiling, place a fire-resistant plate with a 10 cm thick heat-insulating layer on top 30 cm below the ceiling in the chimney breast.
Place the fire level at the desired height and fix it with metal anchors.
Connect the flue duct to the fire ring.
Always connect any convection openings (see section 5.3 ‘Convection’) with heat-resistant flexible pipe and ventilation elements (see section 5.4 ‘Appliances wit fan(s)) to protect the plasterwork against high temperatures. If the chimney breast is made of non-combustible materials (e.g. facing brickwork) this is not required.
Make sure there is sufficient space under the fire for the supply of combustion air. When the outside air connection ring is not used, it must remain at least 20 mm free for sufficient combustion air.
If applicable connect the outside air connection (see section 9 ‘Appliance specific information’).
The fire is not suitable to support a flue duct, it must be self-supporting.
Stony materials may absolutely not rest on the fire. For this use e.g. a brick lintel with ceramic felt.
Make sure that the opening in the chimney breast is 6 mm wider than the built in frame.
The chimney breast may not be warmer than 90 degrees Celsius on the outside.
Lay a fire-resistant floor plate for the fire if the floor is combustible. The floor plate in non-combustible material must extend at least 300 mm away from the fire and be at least 300 mm wider than the fire.
