Flooring under Fireplace
Ensure that the floor on which the fireplace is placed
can withstand the load with regards to the total weight
of the fireplace. If unsure, contact the local building
authorities or a builder for review / approval. When
mounting the fireplace on a floating wooden floor, the
floorboards under the fireplace should be removed to
avoid that the floorboards lock and crack.
2. Technical Information
The inserts from 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 inserts have minimal
emissions of soot particles and unburnt gases (such
as CO) and are thus better for the environment. Clean
burning inserts require a small amount of wood in
order to obtain a good heat output. Use exclusively
clean and dry wood.

Warning: If the requirements for ventilation are
NOT complied with, the heating circulation effect
will be considerably reduced and
overheating can occur.
This can in a worst case scenario cause a fire.
3. Distance to Combustible Material
Ensure that the safety distances are respected
(FIG 1).
A
The distance from the glass in the door to a lateral
wall, measured diagonally, must be of at least 800
mm.

Ca. 45-180 m²
Top, posterior and lateral
Inner Ø 150 mm
(NB! In UK outer Ø)
120 kg
280 cm²
480 cm²
The distance between the top of the convection air
outlet and roof of inflammable material must be at
least 500 mm. The distance from the front of the insert
to furniture needs to be of at least 1 metre. When
connecting a steel chimney to the top outlet use the
security distances required from the manufacturer.
Important! When placing the insert on a
combustible floor, a steel plate of at least 0.7mm
must cover the entire floor surface inside the
surround. Any flooring made of combustible
material, such as linoleum, carpets etc. must be
removed from underneath the steel plate.
4. Assembly
The following tools are necessary:
•
13 mm spanner/wrench
•
Electrical drill / Phillips screwdriver (for self drilling
screws)
•
Caulking gun (for the stove cement)
•
Possibly a hammer
1. Ensure that all loose parts are included (FIG 2):
A.
Heat shield in two parts with 4 self drilling screws
B.
Lid for flue outlet with fasteners
C.
Smoke dome
D.
4 fasteners with bolts and disks for the dome
E.
Insert with door
F.
3 bolts with disks for fastening the legs
G.
3 legs, 3 adjusting bolts with nuts
H.
Handle for top draught regulator
I.
Glove
The insert expands when in use, and for this
reason the surround must NEVER rest on the
insert, but have a gap of about 3 mm. The
insert must neither rest on the bench plate
or against the sides. It is recommended to
dry stack the surround in order to adjust the
insert prior to perforating the chimney for
the flue connection.
2. Carefully lay the insert on its back. Ensure that
the transportation padding is put inside the insert
before turning it over, so that the insulating plates
in the burn chamber do not fall down and break.
Please note that the insulating plates may release
coloured dust when touched. Avoid touching the
insert with dust on your fingers. Any visible dust on
the insert can be brushed off with the glove that is
included.
Start with assembling the legs (FIG 3) as follows:
•
Fasten the screws on to the insert with a 13 mm
spanner/wrench. The legs are placed as shown in
the illustration.
•
Adjust the legs (FIG 4) to the desired height (X)
before returning the insert to an upright position
(do not tilt the insert). The height varies
