Chimney Draught; Air Supply; Floor Plate; Dimensional Drawing - Nordpeis Quadro Basic Colorado 6 Manuel D'installation

Important to check
(please note that this list is not exhaustive):
• distance from firebox to combustible/flammable
materials
• insulation materials/requirements between
fireplace surround and back wall
• size of floor plates in front of fireplace if required
• flue connection between firebox and chimney
• insulation requirements if flue passes through a
flammable wall
Chimney draft
Compared to older models, the clean burning fireplaces
of today put significantly higher demands on the
chimney. Even the best fireplace will not work properly
if the chimney does not have the right dimensions or
is not in good working order. The draught is mainly
controlled by gas temperature, outside temperature, air
supply as well as the height and inner diameter of the
chimney. The diameter of the chimney should never
be less than that of the flue/chimney collar.
effect there should be a negative pressure of 12 to 25
Pascal.
The draft increases when:
•
The chimney becomes warmer than the outside air
• The active length of the chimney over the hearth
increases
• There is good air supply to the combustion
It can be difficult to obtain the right draught conditions
in case the chimney is too large relative to the fireplace,
as the chimney does not heat up well
such cases you may want to contact professional for
evaluation of possible measures. Draught that is too
strong can be controlled with a damper. If necessary,
contact a chimney sweeper. The product is type
tested and should be connected to a chimney that is
dimensioned for the smoke gas temperature indicated
in the CE declaration. When necessary, contact a
professional in advance

Air supply

A set for fresh air supply is available as accessory.
This will ensure that the air supply to the combustion
chamber is less affected by ventilation systems,
kitchen fans and other factors which can create a
down-draught in the room. In all new construction, we
strongly recommend that it is designed and prepared for
direct supply of outside air. In older houses, the use of
fresh air supply set is also
air supply can cause down-draught and thereby low
combustion efficiency and the problems that this entails:
soot stains on the glass, inefficient use of the wood and
a soot deposits in the chimney.

Dimensional drawing

The illustrations indicate the approximate centre height
of the hole for the flue. Distortions in floors and walls
may influence the dimensions. Dry stack the fireplace
without glue for accurate height and positioning of the
flue/chimney connection.
At nominal
enough. In
recommended. Insufficient

3. Technical information

All products Nordpeis have secondary combustion and
are clean burning. The combustion takes place in two
phases: First the wood burns and then the gases from
the fumes are lit by the hot air. This ensures that these
new fireplaces have minimal emissions of soot particles
and un-burnt gases (such as CO) and are thus better
for the environment. Clean burning fireplaces require
a small amount of wood in order to obtain a good heat
output. Use exclusively clean and dry wood.

* Intermittent combustion refers to normal use of a fireplace,
i.e. new wood is inserted when the previous load has burned

4. Safety distances

Ensure that the safety distances are complied with
(FIG 2).
When connecting a steel chimney to the top outlet
follow the assembly instructions from the producer.
Ensure to comply with the security distances required
for the steel chimney.
