3. Safety Distances
Within a radius of 115 cm in front of and 48 cm
around the stove, flammable, combustible, or heat-
sensitive materials (e.g. furniture, wood or plastic
panelling, curtains, etc.) are not allowed to be locat-
ed in the heat radiating area of the fire box window
(fig. 1).
Outside the radiation area of the fire box win-
dow, a safety distance of 16 cm or 12 cm (when
situated in a corner) to flammable materials
is to comply sideways and behind the stove
(fig. 1). Above the stove, the safety distance of
75 cm to flammable materials has to be complied
with.
No flammable or temperature-sensitive materials
may be present around the flue pipe connection
(wall or room ceiling). Note the respective national
regulations.
For particularly temperature-sensitive materials like
glass, larger distances may be necessary.
WARNING!
Flammable flooring materials (e.g. wood,
laminate, carpeting etc.) must be protect-
ed with a floorplate made of non-combus-
tible material (e.g. tiles, safety glass, slate,
or sheet steel).
The size of the floorplate must be larger
than the base of the stove by at least
60 cm in front and at least 12 cm at the
sides of the stove (fig. 2).

The indicated safety distances apply to flammable
materials or materials with flammable parts with a
thermal resistance of R ≤ 10 m²k/W.
4. Connection of Multiple Devices in
Direct Vent Operation
When the LUNO B.13 is operated as a direct vent
model, more than one device can be connected to
the chimney under the following conditions:
CAUTION!
Multiple appliances per chimney are per-
mitted in line with the applicable national
and regional regulations.
All connected fireplace stoves must be in
the same building unit or in the same ef-
fective area of the ventilation system.
The inlets for the combustion air ducts are
located in areas of equal pressure (same
pressure ratios), wind-induced pressure
fluctuations have to be avoided.
The inlets for the combustion air ducts are
located in areas of equal pressure (same

fluctuations have to be avoided.
NOTE!
In England (UK), according to the appli-
cable building regulations (The Building
Regulations 2010: Combustion appliances
and fuel storage systems, point 1.25),
each solid-fuel appliance is required to
have its own chimney.
