6.5 Additional notes
6.5.1 Ventilation
This appliance does not need extra air vent. However an
adequate supply of fresh air to maintain temperatures and a
comfortable environment is recommended.
6.5.2 Floor protection
The temperature of the floor under the device needs be less
than 85°C and the floor of the conversion around the fireplace is
to be constructed of non-flammable materials. If necessary the
floor is to be covered with an insulation layer to protect it from
unauthorized temperatures.
6.5.3 Radiation
When the fireplace is turned on, heat radiation will escape
through the ceramic glass and will heat up the environment.
Therefore it is important that a minimal distance between
the ceramic glass and any flammable material in front of the
fireplace is one meter.
If a shelf is to be fitted above the fireplace opening, a gap of
150mm minimum should be le between the opening and the
shelf. See figure 6.4 and 6.5.
6.5.4 Electrical pipes
The conversion has to be free of the usual electric installation
pipes, if these are not protected against temperatures over
30°C by the necessary precautions. Special pipelines with an
heightened heat resistance are permitted.
