•
At the time of placing the stove, the chimney flue must be clean, leak-proof and without obstructions, and
must have a diameter of at least 200 mm.
•
Any bends in the flue tube should not exceed 45 degrees.
•
Ensure that the chimney tube can discharge the flue gases adequately, properly and safely.
Fire Safety
For reasons of fire safety, it is important to observe the instructions below before installing the stove.
1. If the floor around the stove is made of combustible material, you must use a floor slab.
2. The floor slab must measure at least: - 50 cm from the stove on the front side of the door; - 30 cm from
the stove on the sides of the door. Keep at least a distance of 80 cm between the stove and combustible
objects such as curtains, wooden objects (cupboards and paintings) and glass objects. Keep the same
distance from the flue tube.
3. Wooden construction parts within the radiation range of the stove (80 cm from the exterior of the stove)
must be covered with fireproof material.
4. If the flue tube goes through a ceiling and/or roof that consist of flammable materials, the ceiling and the
roof must be covered with fireproof materials all around (about 80 cm). Pay also attention to joisted floor
layers and any electric wiring.
5. Keep a distance of at least 50 cm (in all directions) between the stove and supporting steel construction
parts.
6. Shield off all combustible materials within a radius of 80 cm from the stove openings with non-combustible
materials.
7. Never cover the chimneybreast with combustible material (e.g. paper covering).
8. The wall behind the stove must consist of, or be insulated with, fireproof materials. The insulation material
must resist a temperature of 700 °C and have a density of 80 kg/m3. Please see for insulation materials the
table on page 28).
9. Avoid heat transmission when placing the stove. Heat transmission of a burning stove can penetrate the
wall and even cause fire damage on the other side of the wall. Prevention is better than cure.
Installation
The Square is tested in accordance with the international EN 13229 standardization. The stove can be connected
to a flue tube to which several stoves are connected. The wood burner must be placed by a registered installer;
otherwise, the obligations under the guarantee will lapse.
Supply of combustion air
The stove must have a sufficient fresh supply of combustion air. To avoid draft, make if necessary an extra air
supply opening as close to the stove as possible. An extra air supply opening is definitely required if:
•
the room has a heat recovery system,
•
the room has a central exhaust system,
•
the same space has a cooker hood.
The air supply opening must be sealable if it goes through a fire-resistant wall. If there are several heating
devices in the same room, there must be enough air openings to guarantee proper combustion.
Connecting the Square
The Square is a fireplace of heavy weight. Verify whether the wall or the floor onto which the stove is installed
is strong enough to hold the weight.
Follow the instructions given in the previous chapter on 'Preparation' before installing the stove. Protect the
floor during mounting the stove, and mind your back.
1. Check the packaging and if there is any visible damage, please report it.
2. Take the stove from the box.
3. Put the stove in its place; ensure that stove is placed exactly in the middle beneath the exhaust pipe. If
