No, there are certain guidelines that you must follow when choosing where to install the stove. You should talk to a chimney sweep before you buy the stove to clarify the general conditions. These include the specific location, the safety distances and the air supply and removal. For example, you must ensure that the minimum distance to the wall and ceiling is 20-60 cm and the distance from the stove door to combustible furniture or objects is at least 80 cm.
If the fireplace has side windows, a further distance of 65 cm must be maintained to the sides. If the stove has flammable floor coverings such as carpet or wood, a spark arrester must also be purchased for safety. These are available in steel, stainless steel or glass, among other materials, and cost between €60-300.
