14. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE TRANSPARENTE
Note.
The appliance must be installed, connected and inspected by a certified installer. The combustion air supply must
comply with the applicable national or local regulations and be suitable for the appliance’s thermal capacity. We
advise at all events a fresh air supply of an unobstructed aperture size of 2 x 175 cm² to the underside of the device
(via an open, recessed skirting board under the hearth or air vents in the fireplace for example). The supply of air
should ideally be drawn from outside the home. The appliance must be inspected by the installer for leakage of gas
and combustion products and correct operation of the various parts and functions. Correct operation of the flue
pipe must also be checked.
14.1 Installing the appliance
As standard, the appliance can be installed as a stand-alone unit (see page 28).
The unit should be placed on a smooth, finished floor, following which the unit should be positioned at the desired
height using the adjustable feet.
* Undo the locknuts a few turns in order to adjust the height via the adjustment screws.
* The brickwork above or in front of the unit can be supported by an optional steel support iron.
* Brickwork should not be allowed to rest on the appliance. The appliance must be able to expand freely.
Attention!
Make sure the appliance is installed at a safe distance from combustible materials!
14.2 Deflector plates
The deflector plate included with the appliance must be placed centrally in the appliance’s flue gas extrac-
tion hood. The flue gas discharge opening can be adjusted using the adjuster screws. The screws make con-
tact with the inner edge of the extraction hood, thereby creating the discharge opening between the inner
edge and the deflector plate.
14.3 Gas supply connection
You can determine where the gas pipes will be placed, dependent on the layout. Ensure control equipment is not
twisted during installation and there is no excessive tension. Accessibility of various connection points in relation
to components needs to be maintained. After installation, check that the connections are gas-tight. Use a 1/2“ gas
tap with a connector. Ensure the gas pipes are free of dirt and soil or sand and that the gas and combustion controls
in the various components and all appliance functions operate correctly. The gas supply should only be connected
up when the electricity supply is disconnected. Failing to do so may cause damage to the gas control equipment.
After completing any work: Test for leaks and check operation.
14.4 Chimney
* If connected to a chimney that has previously been used for a wood-burning fire, the flue should be thor-
oughly and professionally cleaned as soot can still become dislodged from the chimney when used with gas.
The chimney will need to be cleaned again after a couple of months.
14.5 Warning.
* Only install the unit in a well-ventilated room.
* The gas unit is only suitable for installation in a non-flammable, fire-resistant configuration.
* This is an open fire so you should not place any easily flammable articles nearby: care should be taken with
nylon clothing.
* The exhaust gas outlet should have a minimum diameter that corresponds to the size of the connection.
* All pipes and cables (electric/gas) that pass through a wall opening should be protected by a PVC pipe or
similar.
