Connection Of The Flue - Dik Geurts Instyle 800 Instructions D'installation

Various options are available for creating a convection air connection. Select the situation that applies to you and
proceed as follows:
New situation (hollow chimney breast made of non combustible material):
Option1:
Ø
Using a hammer, break out the plates for the convection air connection at the top of the appliance
(see appendix 2, fig. 4a).
Ø
Place the rings on the convection openings (see appendix 2, fig. 4b).
Ø
Slide a heat-resistant, flexible hose (Ø 125 mm) over the ring and fasten it with a hose clip or a self-tapping screw.
Ø
Connect the flexible hose to a ventilation element in the top of the chimney breast (at least 30 cm below the
ceiling).
These accessories are available through your supplier.
Option 2:
Ø
Using a hammer, break out the two convection openings at the top of the appliance (see appendix 2, fig. 4a).
Ø
Place two ventilation elements in the top section of the chimney breast (at least 30 cm below the ceiling).
Option 3:
Ø
Do not break out the plates for the convection air connection.
Ø
Place two ventilation elements below the appliance to supply relatively cold air.
Ø
Place two ventilation elements above the fire (at least 30 cm below the ceiling).
This option is not available in combination with a construction frame.
!Caution
Existing situation or conversion without a hollow chimney breast
Ø
Do not break out the plates for the convection air connection.
Ø
The convection breast of the fire will provide sufficient convection flow.

9.1.3 Connection of the flue

In an existing situation the flue can be connected in three ways: without venting material, using a fixed
connection or by using a flexible connection.
Not all connection methods are allowed in all countries! Install the appliance strictly according to the
!CAUTION
country-specific conditions.
For the method without venting material you must create an airtight connection with ceramic wool between
the top side of the fire and the chimney (see paragraph 5.7.2).
When making a fixed connection use must be made of the specially developed tapered ring or the draining
flex/fix connecting piece. This is available through your supplier.
Proceed as follows (see Appendix 2, Fig. 5a to 5c):
Ø
Fix the ring/connecting piece using three bolts on the top side of the appliance.
Ø
Fit the appliance.
Ø
Slide the pipe over the tapered ring or into the draining flex/fix connecting piece.
A draining flex/fix connecting piece is available for a flexible connection.
Proceed as follows (see Appendix 2, Fig. 5a to 5c):
Ø
Pull the flexible pipe through the chimney.
Ø
Fix the draining flex/fix connecting piece using 3 self-tapping screws to the flexible pipe.
Ø
Push the flexible pipe including connecting piece back in the chimney.
Ø
Slide the fire into place.
Ø
Remove the flame baffle plate if this is already in the correct place in the top of the appliance (see paragraph
9.3.2).
Ø
Insert a hand through the flue hole and grasp the connecting piece handle.
Ø
Pull the flexible pipe with the connecting piece downwards.
Ø
Fasten the flexible connecting piece to the appliance with three bolts.
The handle in the flexible connecting piece (see Appendix 2, Fig. 5b) can be broken out after installation. This is
!Caution
not necessary but can be desirable for sweeping the chimney.
The draining flex/fix connecting piece can be used to make both a flexible or fixed connection.
Tip!
With a fixed connection the pipe material lowers fully into the connecting piece, with a flexible connection only
!Caution
half of it (see Appendix 2, Fig. 5c).
