1. General information

Weight
2
The home owner must ensure that the floor can
2
withstand the load according to the total weight of the
2
fireplace. When installing the product on a floating wood
2
floor, the floor boards underneath the fireplace must be
2
removed, this to avoid the that the floor boards lock and
3
3
crack.

Chimney connection
3
Follow the chimney manufacturer's specifications for
3
connection to the chimney. We recommend to dry stack
3
4
the surround without glue in order to adjust the insert
4
prior to perforating the chimney for the flue connection.
Remember that the insert will expand with heat, so the
4
surround cannot rest on the insert, but have a distance
4
of about 2-3mm. The insert must neither rest against the
4
bench plate or against the sides.
4
For top connection to steel chimney please follow the
5
assembly instructions of the producer.

Acrylic glue
5
Glue the elements with the acrylic which is included.
5
Ensure that all surfaces that are to be glued are dust
5
free. Once the fireplace is assembled, fill the joints
5
between the elements with acrylic and even the groove
5
6
with a sponge or finger and some soapy water, in order
to have a clear indentation between the elements (FIG
6
Z).

Powder glue for filling
8
The powder glue which is included can be used to repair
damages in the concrete. Mix the provided powder glue
24
with water (the consistency of the glue should be that of
25
tooth paste). Dampen the surface with a damp sponge.
This will remove dust and ensure better adhesion.
Smaller damages
Transportation and handling can cause minor dents to
the product. This can be repaired with the powder glue
which is included. For a perfect result you can putty with
a suitable filler on top of the powder glue.
Putty smaller cracks and uneven surfaces. It is
recommended to fill in several stages to avoid sinking if
the dent is deep. Even out with e.g. a damp sponge or
a float.
Cracks
New houses shift and settle during their first years and
in addition the concrete elements shrink in lessening
degree during the first 15 months. As a result cracks
may appear in the joints between the elements of the
surround, on the firewall and chimney.
Do as follows: Use the fireplace for a few months.
If there is a crack, tear it up a little with a e.g. a
screwdriver (to provide more space for the filler) and
then vacuum clean to remove all the dust. Inject acrylic
filler and smoothen with a wet soapy sponge or fingertip.
After a few days the groove can be repainted.
