7 Requirements at the installation location
7.1

Requirements to be met by the installation room

Your hybrid stove must not be set up in:
• spaces in which the required combustion air supply is not guaranteed.
• spaces which are generally accessible, in particular emergency exits (staircases in residential build-
ing with no more than 2 apartments are not included in general accessible spaces).
• spaces in which easily flammable or potentially explosive substances or mixtures are processed,
stored or manufactured.
• spaces, apartments or units from which air is extracted with the aid of ventilators, such as ventila-
tion- or hot-air heating installations, extractor hoods or exhaust air tumble dryers. Unless the safe
function of the stove is ensured.
This is ensured if:
– the systems only circulate air within a space.
– the systems have safety features which autonomously and reliably prevent negative pressure in
the installation space.
– simultaneous operation of the fireplace and the air-extracting system is prevented by safety
features.
– the flue gas routing is monitored by a particular piece of safety equipment.
Floor load-bearing capacity
Before installing, verify whether the load-bearing capacity of the substructure can withstand the weight
of your hybrid stove.
• The installation surface for the hybrid stove must have an appropriate load-bearing capacity. If an
existing design does not fulfil this condition, suitable measures (e.g. a plate for distribution of the
load) must be taken to meet it.
7.2

Chimney requirements

To protect your own safety, national and local regulations exist governing the connection of flue pipes
to the chimney. Your hybrid stove is set up at the factory for connecting to 130 mm flue diameter / top.
With minor modifications on site it can also be connected at the rear. When connecting with other pipe
diameters, you should obtain the prior approval of your chimney sweep. Your specialist hybrid stove
dealer will be familiar with the guidelines. For your own safety the flue connection should be carried
out by a specialist.
7.3

Combustion air / Outside air supply

This hybrid stove requires sufficient combustion air to operate smoothly. With dense building envel-
opes, the room air is insufficient. For this reason, the combustion air required must be supplied from
outside.
Your hybrid stove is prepared for this situation (balanced flue operation). The external air supply pipe
must be connected tightly to the stove (e.g. a pipe clamp or airtight adhesive tape). Your dealer will
advise you on the correct connection.
