INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL
The appliance must be positioned and connected by a Barbas dealer/specialist in
accordance with these Installation instructions, nationally and locally applicable
regulations.
This manual contains directions for both positioning and for connecting the appliance.
It also contains indications for the annual maintenance, technical data for the appliance,
parts information and directions in the event of problems.
Study the Installation instructions carefully before using the appliance. We recommend
you keep this manual in a safe place for reference purposes.
Read the “Instructions for use & maintenance manual” before operating the appliance.
“The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control Areas”
Under the Clean Air Act local authorities may declare the whole or part of the district of
the authority to be a smoke control area.
It is an offence to emit smoke from a chimney of a building, from a furnace or from any
fixed boiler, if located in a designated smoke control area.
It is also an offence to acquire an “unauthorised fuel” for use within a smoke control
area unless it is used in an “exempt” appliance (“exempted” from the controls which
generally apply in the smoke control area).
The Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs has powers under the
Act to authorise smokeless fuels or exempt appliances for use in smoke control areas in
England.
In Scotland and Wales this power rests with Ministers in the devolved administrations
for those countries. Separate legislation, the Clean Air (Northern Ireland) Order 1981,
applies in Northern Ireland.
Therefore it is a requirement that fuels burnt or obtained for use in smoke control areas
have been “authorised” in Regulations and that appliances used to burn solid fuel in
those areas (other than “authorised” fuels) have been exempted by an Order made and
signed by the Secretary of State or Minister in the devolved administrations.
Further information on the requirements of the Clean Air Act can be found here:
http://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/
Your local authority is responsible for implementing the Clean Air Act 1993 including
designation and supervision of smoke control areas and you can contact them for
details of Clean Air Act requirements.

1.2 SAFETY AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Safety
• Do not place flammable objects within 150 cm of the appliance. Pay special attention
to furnishings and ornaments around the appliance.
• When you use your appliance, the exterior will become hot. Always wear the glove
or use the accessories supplied when filling etc.
Protect yourself and others (especially children!) from burns. Do not leave children
unattended when the appliance is burning.
• Watch your clothing. Synthetic clothing in particular can easily catch fire and burn
intensely.
• Do not approach the appliance with flammable materials or liquids. Any work with
solvents, adhesives etc. in the space heated by the appliance can be very
dangerous.
• It is not allowed to connect the appliance to a flue which is already connected to
another appliance.
• Cheak the chimney. Cracks in the chimney may not only lead to damp, staining
of walls and leaking of smoke, they can also impair the carrying off of smoke.
• Prevent your chimney being soiled from above (birds’ nests etc.) by fitting a suitable
cap to the chimney pot.
• Avoid chimney fires! Have your chimney swept at least once per year - more often
if you use your fire a lot. Prevent excessive deposits of soot inside the chimney by
not burning freshly-cut wood. Instead, burn clean, dry chopped wood.
• Follow the instructions issued by your local fire brigade.
The appliance can be taken in operation if national and local regulations are satisfied.
The required constructive adaptations should be satisfied as well.
• It is essential that the appliance, the flue and combustion air supply are cleaned and
inspected annually by a Barbas dealer/specialist.
The safe operation of the appliance will thus remain guaranteed.
• The appliance is suitable and approved for periodical use.

INSTALLATION
3.1 INSTRUCTIONS
When fitting one of these appliances local and/or national regulations relating to fire
safety must be followed. In case of doubt, consult the fire safety department of the local
fire brigade, particularly if the fire is to be fitted in a home with walls and/or floors
containing flammable material.
The connection of several appliances to a single flue/chimney is not allowed.
3.2 CHIMNEY
If no chimney is immediately available, have one fitted by a recognised specialist only.
The chimney must be compliant with local regulations and is particularly important because it has a significant bearing on the function of the appliance.
Basic rules:
• A chimney for an open appliance is not, by definition, suitable for a closable model
(i.e. an appliance with doors). As a closed appliance draws in much less (cold) air,
the smoke is hotter. Please have your chimney inspected to see whether it is suitable
for a closable appliance.
• The chimney opening must be at least 5 metres above the top of the door opening of
your appliance.
• The chimney must protrude at least 40 cm above the apex of a sloping roof and at
least 1 metre above a flat roof. In short, the chimney must always end in an area with
a negative air pressure. Contact your local chimney sweep
for the exact dimensions of the chimney opening.
• The internal diameter must not be less than that of the appliance at any point (even
at the end of the pipe).
• Avoid bends at all costs. The maximum deviation from the perpendicular is 45°.
• Both the dimensions and the construction must meet stringent construction
standards. Your recognised specialist will be pleased to assist.
• Contact your fire insurer to make sure that your policy is in order.
Installation instructions

CUATRO-3 90
3.3 FITTING
An appliance can be fitted in the newly-built or existing chimney breast of an open fire.
When fitting, both fire safety and operational safety must be safeguarded. The fitter is
responsible for this.
General guidelines:
• If there is a wooden beam above the fitting location, heat must not radiate directly
onto it. An insulation plate must be hung below the beam, leaving an air gap between
it and the beam of at least 1 cm.
• Always use (white) unbound ceramic insulation wool. Bound material (yellow), such
as glass and rock wool, spreads an irritating smell on heating, causes excess smoke
and is unsuitable for high temperatures.
Insulation requirements:
• temperature resistance ≥ 700°C.
• density ≥ 80 kg/m3
• Have any electrical connection for the Perma Air ® convection fan box carried out by
a professional electrician.
Note ! : The fan set should be connected to an earthed wall socket.
This socket must remain accessible at all times.
• Before fitting, remove the door to protect the glass.
3.3.1 Positioning of the appliance
The appliance must be positioned on a concrete surface. If such a surface is not immediately available, a sufficiently solid pedestal of noninflammable material should be built
from the creeping space.
The appliance can be placed in position using the carrying brackets (dealer-accessorie)
supplied.
Ventilate the empty space in the chimney, by placing ventilation openings at the top and
bottom of the chimney breast.
The total ventilation openings should be at least 450 cm2 at the bottom of the chimney
breast and also at least 450 cm2 at the top of the chimney breast.
(Total ventilation openings: 900 cm2.)

CUATRO-3 90
3.3.2 Aeration / ventilation
The appliance generates: - heating air
- combustion air
Heating air (convection air) is devoted to the convection of heat from the appliance to
the room. The source of heat is in the room and stays there.
Combustion air is needed to keep the combustion going by drawing in air from the
room, of directly from outside, due to the natural draught of the chimney.
• Combustion air from the living-room:
The air inlet openings are located behind the operating flap. When using the
appliance, please ensure there is a sufficient supply of fresh air: use a grate with a
minimum net opening in the outer wall of 150 cm2.
When necessary, the combustion air inlet Ø125 mm at the underside of the appliance
may be used. Through the hollow space, underneath the appliance, and a grate in
the chimney breast, combustion air can be supplied from the living room.
Make sure that the ventilation supply is open; this is particularly important with
today’s airtight dwellings
If the dwelling has mechanical ventilation that creates under pressure in the room
where the appliance is located, it is necessary to fit a flue gas fan.
The type of flue gas fan is dependent on the capacity of the mechanical ventilation
system. Always consult your fitter about this.
In dwellings with an operating extractor hood, this should be turned to the lowest
setting or turned off altogether. If the extractor hood remains in use, additional
ventilation must be provided in compensation. This will not only avoid poor
combustion, but will also prevent flue gases being sucked from the appliance into
the room.
Should creating an extra ventilation opening prove insufficient, it is then necessary
to fit a flue gas fan.
38
Installation instructions
CUATRO-3 90
• Combustion air directly from outside:
The appliance now has a completely closed combustion system, which allows it to
operate independently of the surrounding air in the room where the appliance is
located.
- Appliance with substructure air-box:
Use one of the three combustion air supply connections Ø125 mm (external)
of the air-box / fan box.
Fit a rigid or flexible pipe measuring Ø125 mm between this air supply connection
and the “outside air supply opening in the wall/floor”.
We recommend that this pipe is fitted with a sealing valve in order to prevent
condensation in the appliance when it is not in use.
- Appliance with substructure fan box (convection fan):
Use the Ø125 mm (external) combustion air supply connection at the left of right
front side or the bottom side of the air-box / fan box.
Fit a rigid or flexible pipe measuring Ø125 mm between this air supply connection
and the “outside air supply opening in the wall/floor”.
We recommend that this pipe is fitted with a sealing valve in order to prevent
condensation in the appliance when it is not in use.
3.3.3 Fitting in an existing chimney
• Remove the existing fire basket or stoking stones and remove the shut-off flap. The
chimney must be intact and must not be damaged during fitting.
The chimney breast opening must be big enough for a gap of 1 - 3 cm to be left all
round the appliance. Clad the chimney breast opening from the inside with a ceramic
wool fireblanket or similar (see section 3.3).
• Extend the existing chimney so that it ends at the appliance’s smoke outlet. To do
this, use a flexible, double-walled stainless steel chimney, for example.
• Slide the appliance into the chimney breast opening. Seal the smoke outlet where it
joins the chimney so that no soot can accumulate above the appliance under any
circumstances. See 3.3.4.
• Level off the appliance so that the cover does not catch on the base.
• Fill any gaps around the appliance with a ceramic insulation wool fireblanket and
position the frame (where supplied)

CUATRO-3 90
3.3.4 Fitting in a newly-built chimney
•
If required, a convection set can be added when installing the appliance.
* Appliance without air-box/fan box: The use of a convectionset is
strongly recommended.
* Appliance with air-box/fan box:
The use of a convectionset is possible,
(with build-in fan)
but not mandatory.
•
In the case of utilisation of a convection set:
Carefully break out the “break-away openings” at the topside (2x) or (4x) of the
appliance.
•
Use convection set:
The function of the convection set (option) is to improve the convection through the
appliance, resulting in efficiency improvement and preventing high temperatures in
the chimney.
The set consists of: • 3 m aluflex
• 2 exit grids (white)
• 2 collar adaptors Ø125 mm
• 4 hose clamps
• Assembly convection set:
° Secure the 2 collar adaptors to the appliance.
° Now connect the flexible hoses to the 2 collar adaptors (Ø125 mm) on the top of
the fire and to the metal fitting box on the air exit grids that are being used (do not
forget to fit hose clamps).
Ensure
that the flexible hose connections are gastight.
°
° The air exit grids cannot be fitted until a few days later, once the masonry has
been pointed and allowed to dry. If one or more channels are connected leading
to other rooms, these rooms must be fitted with closable grids. These are available
from your dealer, as well as the flexible hoses and clamps required.
Within
a range of 30 cm either side and 50 cm above the escape opening (exit
°
grids), there must be no flammable materials (e.g. wooden ceiling, fitted furniture).
•
Clad the appliance on the top, sides and rear up to the front edge with an approx.
10 cm thick ceramic isolation wool fireblanket. Leave a few centimetres clearance
between the front of the chimney and the appliance.
•
Level off the appliance.
•
Make a good seal between the smoke outlet from the appliance to the chimney.
See also 3.3.5.
Ensure that the entire flue is gas-tight.
• Ventilate the chimney, by placing ventilation openings at the top and bottom of the
chimney.

• If the appliance is to be placed against a bearing wall or against a wall containing
flammable material, an air gap of at least 20 mm should first be created.
Before it a false wall, 100 mm thick, must be built of masonry or aerated concrete.
• If the appliance is not placed against a bearing wall or a wall containing flammable
material, no false wall is necessary. Layers of insulation of at least 100-mm thickness
will then be sufficient (class A1, DIN 4102-compliant). See also section 3.3.
• After four weeks, your appliance will be ready for use.
3.3.5 Connecting the smoke outlet
The appliance comes with a detachable smoke outlet connection; Cuatro-3 90:
Ø200 mm (Ø198 mm external). This connection is intended for steel pipes, double/
single-skinned stainless steel (insulated) flues or double/single-skinned flexible stainless
steel flues.

AIR-BOX / FAN BOX
3.4.1 INSTALLING AIR-BOX / FAN BOX
It is advisable to remove the complete door before installing the air-box / fan box; this
can be done by tilting the door upwards when in the open position and removing it.
The appliance is equipped with a dedicated ring (underneath the
appliance) to separate combustion and convection air, when the
appliance is originally ordered with an air-box / fan box.
(Supply of combustion air through the front appliance is, by
conseqence, no longer possible.)
In case the ring is not fitted, it is still possible to mount it through the
bottom of the appliance.

ANNUAL MAINTENANCE
It is essential that the appliance, the chimney and the
combustion air supply are cleaned and inspected
annually, by a Barbas-dealer/expert.
The safe operation of the appliance will thus remain
guaranteed.
Start with maintence 24 hours after the last burning period.
Recommended order for yearly maintenance:
•
Inside the appliance:
• Check the door seals. If necessary, replace the seals.
•
Temporarily remove the door, by opening it competely and lifting it upwards.
•
Remove the complete interior of the appliance (see Chapter 6) and carefully
clean all parts with a hand brush.
Emptying the ashtray.
•
Clean the glass on the inside of the door with glass spray or ceramic hob
cleaner.
•
If the glass is broken or cracked, it must be immediately replaced before
operating the appliance again.
Broken ceramic heat-resistant glass
may not be thrown away in a glass
container, but must be included in
normal household waste.
•
Check the grate and all interior plates on cracks.
If necessary, replace the parts.
‚
Chimney/flue channel:
• Sweep and inspect chimney. Check for cracks, loose parts, flue gas leakage
and overall condition of the chimney.
When in doubt use an inspection camera !
ƒ
Combustion air supply appliance:
• Check the combustion air supply route from the outside up to the appliance.
• Clean the combustion air supply inlet openings.
52
Installation instructions
CUATRO-3 90
„
Convection air (Ventilation air) appliance:
• Check the convection air route.
• Clean the convection air intake openings, flues and air escape openings.
• Clean the innerside of the fan box (option).
The convection fan can be reached after removal of the complete floor of the
combustion chamber / heating room.
…
Outside appliance:
• Clean the outside of the appliance with a dry lint free cloth.
• Wait for the appliance to cool down sufficiently before cleaning. Never use
scouring powder, aggressive cleaners or fire polish on the appliance.
• Any lacquer damage can be repaired with a BARBAS heat resistant paint spray
can. (Pay atention that the appliance is sufficiently cooled down !)
†
Ventilation house:
• Check whether the room where the appliance is installed is sufficiently
ventilated according to national and local regulations and standards.
• Ensure that as little dust, and as few particles of cigarette smoke, candles and
oil lamps as possible pollute the air in the room in which the appliance is used.
Heating of these particles by the convection system of the appliance could lead
to discoloration of the walls and ceiling. It is therefore very important to ensure
that the room in which the appliance is located is sufficiently ventilated.
‡
Last check appliance:
• In reversed order, place back all parts in the appliance.
• Place back the door on the appliance.
• Check the correct operation from the sliders and flaps. See Chapter 3.6:
Preparation / Function check.
ˆ
General:
• Parts:
Individual parts for replacement/accessories are available from your BARBAS
dealer. Use only original parts.
•
Modifications:
Introduced modifications to the appliance are not permitted.
