INSTALLATION MANUAL
Thank you for choosing your new RAIS or
ATTIKA product! This installation manu-
al will ensure that your fireplace insert is
installed correctly and that it will provide
you with comfort and pleasure for many
years to come.
IN GENERAL
It is important to correctly install the
fireplace insert out of consideration
for both the environment and personal
safety. The installation of the stove must
comply with all local rules and regula-
tions, including those that refer to na-
tional and
European standards.
No unauthorised alterations may be
made to the fireplace insert.
GENERAL INSTALLATION REQUIRE-
MENTS
The installation should be undertaken
by a qualified HETAS engineer. And a CO
monitor (certified) must be installed in
the same room as the appliance.
Before the fireplace insert may be put to
use, the installation should be reported
to the local Council/Authority.
There must be a plentiful supply of fresh
air in the installation room to ensure
good combustion – if required, through
an Air-System connection. NB: Any me-
chanical air extraction, for example a
cooker hood, can minimise the supply of
air.
The wood-burning stove has an air con-
sumption of at least 7,4 m3/h.
The floor structure must be able to sup-
port the weight of the wood-burning
stove and a chimney. If the existing floor
structure does not meet this require-
ment, suitable measures must be taken
(e.g. installation of a load distribution
plate). Seek advice from a building ex-
pert.
If the wood-burning stove is to be in-
stalled on a flammable floor, national and
local regulations must be complied with,
including for the size of the non-flam-
mable plate, which must cover the floor
in front of the wood-burning stove to
protect the floor from any embers that
fall out of the stove.
The fireplace insert must be positioned
at a safe distance from flammable ma-
terial. Due to risk of fire, flammable
items (e.g. furniture) may not be posi-
tioned closer to the fireplace insert than
the closest permitted distance stated
in the installation section. When decid-
ing where to install your RAIS/ATTIKA
fireplace insert, you should think about
being able to heat other rooms in the
home, so you get the most out of your
new fireplace insert.
After receiving your fireplace insert,
please check it for any defects.
CHIMNEY
The chimney must be tall enough
to ensure correct draught condi-
tions, i.e. -14 to -18 pascal. If the rec-
ommended chimney draught cannot
be achieved, problems from smoke
escaping from the door may arise
when lighting the fire. We recommend
adapting the chimney to suit the flue
outlet connector. The flue outlet con-
nector is 150 mm in diameter.
The Stove must not be installed in a
chimney serving more than one appli-
ance.
If the draught is excessive, it is recom-
mended that you equip the chimney
with a regulating damper. If a regulating
damper is fitted, you must ensure that
there is a free flow area of at least 20 cm²
at the closed regulating damper.
Remember that there must be unob-
structed access to the access door on
the chimney.
