IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS!
1. Please follow the installation manual when
connecting your stove / fireplace to the chimney /
flue pipe. If connected differently from instruction
please, consider the heat radiation from the flue
pipe to the surrounding materials.
2. Before use, please carefully read the user manual
and follow the instructions.
3. Integrated or defined convection openings may
never be reduced or partially obstructed. This may
lead to overheating, which again can cause house
fire or serious damage to the product.
4. Use only designated fire starters. Never use
gasoline, diesel or other liquids to start the fire.
This may cause explosions!
5. Never use other fuel than natural dry chopped
wood. Briquettes, peat, coke, coal and waste
from construction materials develops far higher
temperatures and emissions than natural wood.
Since your product has been designed for use
with natural wood only, other fuels may damage
the product, chimney and surrounding
constructions.
6. In case of damage to glass or door gasket, all use
of the product must be discontinued until the
damage has been repaired.
Failure to follow these precautions will leave your
warranty void and expose people and property to
danger.
Advise: Even if not required in your area, it is always
wise to have a qualified stove / fireplace fitter do the
installation, or at least the final inspection before use.

General information
All our products are tested according to the latest
European requirements and also to the Norwegian
standard NS 3058 and NS 3059, which include
particle tests. However, several European countries
have local regulations for installation of fireplaces,
which change regularly. It is the responsibility of the
client that these regulations are complied with in
the country/region where the fireplace is installed.
Nordpeis AS is not responsible for incorrect
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
Adjustment
We recommend to stack the surround without glue in
order to adjust the insert prior to perforating the chimney
for the flue connection. Use a spirit level to ensure that
the surround is mounted straight. The insert will expand
with heat and for this reason the surround must not rest
on the insert. (Above the insert there must be a gap
of 3 to 5 mm. Laterally there is no need for gaps, but
between the lower part of the insert and the surround
there must be a gap of at least 2 mm.)
Floor plate
A fireproof floor plate must be put in front of the fireplace
if the floor is of a combustible material.
Acrylic glue
This is used for gluing the elements towards wall, gluing
the elements together and for filling joints.
Minor damage
The fireplace can sustain minor damage during
transport and handling.
This can be repaired with acrylic/light filler. For perfect
results, you can fill and sand with a suitable filler. Minor
damage and uneven surfaces can be filled. If the
damage is deep or in the event of significant damage,
you are recommended to fill repeatedly with tile
adhesive or cement putty to avoid sinking. Smooth off
with e.g. a damp sponge or a float.
