The flooring under the fire-place
Flooring made of combustible materials like carpet, parquet floor or cork shall
be protected by a shield of non-combustible material (e.g. ceramics-, stone-,
glass-floor or metal) placed under the fire-place reaching 50 cm in front of the
furnace chamber and 30 cm besides.
2.4 Connection of the fireplace
The connection for attaching to the chimney must be able to withstand at least
400°C.
Before connecting the stove the local authority responsible for approving
Connection pieces must be firmly connected to the stove and to each other and
must not leak. They must not project into the open diameter of the chimney. The
connection piece between the stove and the chimney must have the same diameter
as the pipe socket on the stove. Horizontal connection pieces of over 0.5 m must
rise towards the chimney at an angle of 10 degrees. Any pipes which are not heat
insulated or vertical must not be longer than 1 metre.
The requirements of the Fire Regulations (FeuVO) apply, as well
as local building regulations such as for the chimney standards
DIN 18896, DIN 4705, EN 13384, DIN 18160 and EN 15287.
Connection pieces must be tested to EN 1856-2. Measurement
X (distance from flammable construction and other materials)
must be as defined by the manufacturer of the connection piece.
Fitting to a chimney with a functional height of less than 4 m, or
if several stoves are being fitted, less than 5 m, is not permitted.
(See: Data for chimney calculations / Chapter 3.) A maximum of
two other fires can be connected to the chimney to be connected to the stove.
For safety reasons it is not permitted to use a steam extractor hood to remove air
when the stove is producing heat.
PLEASE NOTE:
heating systems must be consulted!
PLEASE NOTE:
The fire-place can usually be jointed
to the chimney with an arch.
When the chimney draught is weak the
fireplace must be jointed to the
chimney through a vertical smoke
tube.
