2.3.11 Cladding Installation
Level the appliance by working on its adjustable feet.
Check the height of the hearth against the cladding that is to be installed.
Begin the mounting of the cladding as per the instructions supplied with our product, and always in full compliance with the
general guidelines specified under section 1.5.
Note that the appliance must never be sealed to the cladding because the materials they are constructed from have a different
thermal expansion. Therefore, it is highly recommended not to:
Seal the cladding to the appliance.
Lay the weight of the cladding and of the flare onto the appliance (we suggest the use of fire-resistant plasterboard for a
quickly-built, lighter flare), and strictly avoid anchorage on any parts of the appliance (see section 2.3.12).
The mantelshelf and any other component in wood or combustible material must be out of the range of the heat radiation area, or
must be duly insulated and be placed at least 1 cm away from the heater in order to let the air freely flow and prevent overheating.
2.3.12 Finishing mantle
We recommend the use of 13÷15 mm thick fireproof plasterboard panels for building the finishing mantle or drywall panel,
supported by a skeleton of galvanised sections duly anchored to the walls, ceiling and cladding mantelshelf.
With these galvanised sections always prepare framework to support and secure the warm air outlets to be positioned at 200÷210
cm off the floor.
If the ceiling is higher than 3 meters tall, install a third non-closable air vent on the finishing mantle or drywall panel with top edge
approximately 30 cm from the ceiling: this vent, whose louvers cannot be shut, ensures the natural emission of the warm air stored
inside the flare.
WARNING: During the following mounting work for the cladding, the appliance must be disconnected from
electrical power (double-pole switch off).
IMPORTANT: If the cladding was not manufactured by Caminetti Montegrappa, but is instead prepared on site by
the user, it is necessary to provide for a slit with an area of no less than 400 sq.cm under the base of the cladding in
order to create an air inlet for proper combustion.
WARNING: When mounting the finishing mantle or drywall panel, the appliance must be disconnected from
electrical power supply (electronic control unit switch in OFF position).
To prevent the transmission of thermal expansion, it is FORBIDDEN to anchor the finishing mantle or the drywall
panel to any part of the appliance.
IMPORTANT: Refer to section 2.4.8 for guidelines regarding the ceiling insulation supported and held into place by
a plasterboard panel installed horizontally.
Install the aluminium flexible warm air distribution pipes before closing and completing the finishing mantle or the
drywall panel with fireproof plasterboard panels (see section 2.3.13).
