4.4. INSULATION OF FIREPLACE STOVE
The fireplace stove must also always be separated from nearby
walls and ceilings.
If necessary, use insulating materials to insulate the walls that are in
contact with the unit if they may be damaged or catch fire (walls made
of wood, plasterboard, etc.).
(figure 4)
4.5. POSITIONING
The AIRSYSTEM fireplace stove can be placed in a corner or along a
wall. You can customize with MCZ claddings or install them during
construction with materials that are resistant to high temperatures.
The fireplace stoves are self-supporting single-piece units that simplify
installation and do not require any additional support.
Always evaluate the structural condition of the surface which
will take the weight, and always leave a minimum 5 cm
airspace between the stove and any walls.
Install dry the fire bed of the cladding leaving an opening of 1 cm
for the insulation.
(Figure 5)
If the stove is positioned over a floor or close to
walls made of flammable materials, it is advisable to
use sufficient insulation.
4.6. ADJUSTMENT OF HEIGHT AND BALANCING
The Airsystem is equipped with adjustment feet that are to be screwed
into the unit only after its exact position has been determined.
Their purpose is to allow easy levelling of the fire bed. The feet allow
adjustment from a minimum of 2 cm for some models, up to a
maximum of 4 cm for others.
Figure 6 shows the adjustment that is
possible according to the various models.
If you want to raise the fireplace stove more than 2 cm, you need to
create a masonry pedestal to set the product on. Do not eliminate
the feet. They are indispensable for levelling. Removing the
feet is considered a structural modification of the product and
therefore voids the guarantee.
The levelling of the fireplace stove is essential so
that the fire door slides correctly.
If the fireplace stove is not placed level, there is the
risk that door will not close perfectly, and that the
internal counterweights strike the structure, causing
noise each time the door is raised or lowered.
It is possible to adjust the levelling of the fireplace
stove by checking the sliding of the door until the
counterweights no longer make any noise.
