GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The equipment that you have purchased contains the following pieces:
- Fireplace body with hood and chimney trim. Both placed on the pallet.
- Inside the combustion chamber you can find: a box/bag with a thermal glove that allows us to handle the air controls, draft-diverter
valve, door, etc, in order to avoid burns. One spray paint can to repair possible scratches, etc.
- One telescopic grate and one baffle plate.
- Inside the ash pan: "cold hands" handle and handle of the ash pan.
The equipment is made of several elements of steel sheets welded, with different thickness, and, depending on the model, pieces of cast
iron or vermiculite (refractory material that covers the walls). It also has a panoramic door with vitro ceramic glass (resistant up to 750ºC) and
ceramic cord for the air tightness of the combustion chamber.
Heating is produced by:
a. Convection: because the air passes through the double hood (when applicable), the fireplace gives off heat.
b. Radiation: through the vitro ceramic glass and the body the heat is irradiated towards the environment.
c. Forced convection (only models with turbines): thanks to the turbine located at the bottom of the device, the air is sucked at room
temperature and returned to the room at a higher temperature.
The models have some settings for a perfect combustion control:
The primary air regulation (see drawing D2.1) on the models of the Lisboa
series is located at the bottom under the door and its movement is horizontal.
In the rest of the models, the regulation is placed with the ashtray drawer
under the door. The largest air intake is placed in the larger side of the
triangle. It controls the air that passes through the ash pan and the grate
towards the fuel. In the Huesca model, this regulation is done through the
opening and closing of the ash box itself (greater opening implies a greater
air intake). The primary air is necessary for the combustion process.
The ash pan should be emptied frequently so that the ash does not block the
primary air intake for the combustion. Also, the primary air rekindles the fire.
D2.2
Draft-diverter valve:
For the proper use of the valve we will follow the next steps (see drawing
D2.3):
1. Pull on the stainless steel knob
2. Rotate it to the desired position
3. Introduce the knob into the hole
The models of the series Lisboa as well as the model Huesca, lack of this
draft-diverter valve.
INSTALLATION, OPERATING AND SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
The secondary air intake (see drawing D2.2) is located on the top of the
door, between the door and the bottom of the hood. In this way, the carbon
that was not burnt during the first combustion can suffer a post-combustion.
This increases the efficiency and assures that the glass keeps clean.
The combustion is not always stable. In fact, it can be affected by the weather
conditions or the outside temperature. This modifies the draw of the chimney.
For this reason, our fireplaces have a baffle plate (or double baffle plate) and
a draft-diverter valve that controls and improves the draw.
