In order that a fireplace functions well it is essential that it is furnished with relevant air inlets from the outside or from other rooms that are not heated; in this way there is a better burning without extracting hot air from the environment.
Location possibilities: on the wall, in a corner, on a wall near a corner, fully recessed, semi-recessed, wall edge, etc.
The chimney must be of the same diameter as the hood up to about 3 metres; if this height is exceeded (if necessary) a chimney with a slightly lesser diameter may be used. The chimney components are bricked together using a thin layer of fine mortar; once the erection has been carried out plaster well between the metal fireplace lining and the prefabricated part, in order to avoid a back draught of smoke from the small side holes of the hot air outlets.
The refractory hearth MUST NOT be walled because a normal expansion to the heat is necessary and also so that any possible maintenance to the valves can be carried out.
