- The Tiileri range and its options: AirBox (ducted combustion air supply), cast-iron metalwork, adding a heat accumulator.
- Reading the assembly plans, model by model: Aida, Amanda and Sofia, Heidi and Helmi.
- Photos of completed installations.
- Calculating the associated flue system, and calculating the home’s heat losses — to do yourself or to entrust to Cœur de Foyer.
Afternoons: practice
- Refractory masonry and cladding, in exposed brick or render.
- Assembly and adaptation of the brand’s own components.
- Fittings and sealing.
- Heater-to-flue connection.
- On the second day, 15 minutes are devoted to each participant’s own project.
Method and resources
