Chimney draught
Compared with older models, the clean burning inserts
of today put signicantly higher demands on the
chimney. Even the best insert will not work properly
if the chimney does not have the right dimensions or
is not in good working order. The draught is mainly
controlled by gas temperature, outside temperature, air
supply as well as the height and inner diameter of the
chimney. The diameter of the chimney should never
be less than that of the ue/chimney collar. For draft
requirements at nominal heat output, see technical
table
The draught increases when:
• The chimney becomes warmer than the outside air
• The active length of the chimney over the hearth
increases
• Good air supply to the combustion
It can be difcult to obtain the right draught conditions
in case the chimney is too large relative to the insert,
as the chimney does not heat up well enough. In
such cases you may want to contact professional for
evaluation of possible measures. Draught that is too
strong can be controlled with a damper. If necessary,
contact a chimney sweeper.
Air supply
A set for fresh air supply is available as an accessory.
This will ensure that the air supply to the combustion
chamber is less affected by ventilation systems, kitchen
fans and other factors which can create a down-draught
in the room. In all new constructions, we strongly
recommend the product is designed and prepared
for direct supply of outside air. In older houses also,
the use of fresh air supply set is also recommended.
Insufcient air supply can cause poor draught and
thereby low combustion efciency and the problems this
entails: soot stains on the glass, inefcient utilisation of
the wood and a soot deposits in the chimney.
For your own safety, fully comply with the assembly
instructions. All safety distances are minimum distances.
Installation of the insert must comply with the current rules
and regulations of the country where the product is installed. .
Nordpeis AS is not responsible for wrongly assembled stoves.
The illustrations indicate the approximate centre height of the
recess for the ue. Consider possible inclination of the ue
prior to perforating the chimney. Distortions in oors and walls
may also inuence the height. Place the stove for accurate
height and positioning of the ue/chimney connection.

1. Before installing a new stove
All our products are tested according to the latest
European requirements and also to the Norwegian
standard NS 3058 and NS 3059, which include particle
tests. However, several European countries have local
regulations for installation of replaces, which change
regularly. It is the responsibility of the client that these
regulations are complied with in the country/region
where the replace is installed. Nordpeis AS is not
responsible for incorrect installation.
Important to check
(please note that this list is not exhaustive):
• distance from rebox to combustible/ammable
materials
• insulation materials/requirements between
replace surround and back wall
• size of oor plates in front of replace if required
• ue connection between rebox and chimney
• insulation requirements if ue passes through a
ammable wall
