Requirements for the floor
The surface must be able to support the weight of the stove and, if applicable, the chimney combined. The area in front of and to
the sides of the loading opening must be covered with a non-combustible base/Hearth. Different rules apply in European
countries, please ask your dealer / installer or chimney sweep. If you use a pre-fitted floor plate, leveling feet must be used. See
sections 8..
If the stove is to be installed with a rear exit, do the following
Remove (or break off) the cover plates on the back, right into the combustion chamber, to create a clear passage for the flue
pipe. Then, remove the cover plate that is screwed onto the combustion chamber. Unscrew the universal connector mounted on
the top of the stove and attach it to the back of the stove. The cover plate that was attached to the back should now be mounted
on the top of the stove. The flue pipe is now ready to be installed.
Requirements for the chimney
The chimney must have a sufficient height to ensure proper draft and to prevent smoke from disturbing neighbors. Good draft in
the chimney is crucial for the stove to function properly and burn as environmentally friendly as possible. All joints and connection
points must be tight, and the chimney must be able to provide a draft of at least 1.2mm water column, equivalent to 12Pa. It is
possible to connect the wood-burning stove to chimneys that are also used for other purposes. However, the specific
circumstances must be evaluated by an installer and/or chimney sweep.
Regulation and flue damper installed on the chimney
If the chimney is equipped with a regulation/flue damper, it should only be able to close up to 80% of the cross-sectional area.
Different rules apply in European countries, please ask your dealer / installer or chimney sweep.
Air supply requirements for the wood-burning stove
Adequate combustion air is essential for efficient and clean burning. Combustion air is usually drawn from the room in which the
stove is installed. If the room/house in which the stove is installed is too airtight or experiences negative pressure due to
ventilation/heat recovery systems or the use of exhaust hoods, it might be necessary to establish external combustion air intake
and/or install a draft inducer. External combustion air is established by pulling combustion air from outside through a duct directly
to the stove's external combustion air inlet. External combustion air kits are available for Termatech's wood -burning stoves.
Consult your dealer for advice. Alternatively, additional air can be introduced into the room through an air vent in the exte rnal
wall or windows.
Air vents supplying necessary combustion air must be kept unblocked. Insufficient air for combustion can lead to sooting of t he
glass and chimney, as well as environmental and neighbor-related issues. Ventilation/heat recovery systems and exhaust hoods
can create negative pressure, causing flue gases to be drawn back through the stove and into the living space. This can be
dangerous (carbon monoxide poisoning).
Chimney Sweep
After your new stove is installed, the installation must be reported to the local chimney sweep. The chimney sweep will inspect
the installation before it is put into use and will continue to clean the chimney regularly thereafter.

Lighting / Firing Instructions
Intermittent Combustion
Your new wood stove is approved for intermittent combustion, not for continuous combustion. This means that it burns properly
with a small amount of fuel and has a burn time of approximately 45 minutes between each firing. Never close the air supply
completely. Instead, let the fire go out and ignite it again when you need it. There is a warning against completely closing the air
supply. The wood stove can only burn efficiently and environmentally friendly if there is sufficient air for combustion.
First Lighting/Firing
The first time you fire up your new wood stove, the paint (Senotherm) that the stove is coated with will cure during heating.
Avoid touching the paint when it is hot and soft. The curing process may emit smoke and odors. Therefore, it is recommended to
have good ventilation the first few times you use the stove. After continuous combustion for 6 hours at high heat, the paint
should be cured. Avoid opening the door quickly, as the gasket on the door may slightly stick to the curing paint. Do not pull the
gasket out of the door if it gets stuck in the paint.
Maximum filling/Max Load:
Wood must not be added to the wood-burning stove above the tertiary holes of the rearmost vermiculite/insulation plates,
corresponding to approximately 14,6 cm from the bottom plate of the combustion chamber. See section 10.
Grate at the Bottom of the Combustion Chamber
The grate located at the bottom of the combustion chamber ensures good and easy Lighting/ignition, as air can pass through it.
Ash falls down through the grate and into the ash drawer. When the ash drawer needs to be emptied, you can remove the grate
and push the remaining ash down into the drawer, then the ash drawer can be emptied.
