4.4. INSULATION OF FIREPLACE STOVE

The fireplace stove must also always be separated from nearby

walls and ceilings.
If necessary, use insulating materials to insulate the walls that are in

contact with the unit if they may be damaged or catch fire (walls made

of wood, plasterboard, etc.).

(figure 4)

4.5. POSITIONING

The AIRSYSTEM fireplace stove can be placed in a corner or along a

wall. You can customize with MCZ claddings or install them during

construction with materials that are resistant to high temperatures.
The fireplace stoves are self-supporting single-piece units that simplify

installation and do not require any additional support.

Always evaluate the structural condition of the surface which

will take the weight, and always leave a minimum 5 cm

airspace between the stove and any walls.
Install dry the fire bed of the cladding leaving an opening of 1 cm

for the insulation.

(Figure 5)

If the stove is positioned over a floor or close to

walls made of flammable materials, it is advisable to

use sufficient insulation.

4.6. ADJUSTMENT OF HEIGHT AND BALANCING

The Airsystem is equipped with adjustment feet that are to be screwed

into the unit only after its exact position has been determined.

Their purpose is to allow easy levelling of the fire bed. The feet allow

adjustment from a minimum of 2 cm for some models, up to a

maximum of 4 cm for others.

Figure 6 shows the adjustment that is

possible according to the various models.
If you want to raise the fireplace stove more than 2 cm, you need to

create a masonry pedestal to set the product on. Do not eliminate

the feet. They are indispensable for levelling. Removing the

feet is considered a structural modification of the product and

therefore voids the guarantee.

The levelling of the fireplace stove is essential so

that the fire door slides correctly.

If the fireplace stove is not placed level, there is the

risk that door will not close perfectly, and that the

internal counterweights strike the structure, causing

noise each time the door is raised or lowered.
It is possible to adjust the levelling of the fireplace

stove by checking the sliding of the door until the

counterweights no longer make any noise.
