Using An External Flue; Prevention Of Domestic Fires - Superior MONIA Instructions For Installation, Use And Maintenance Manual

If the connector has to pass through partitions or walls of infl ammable or
-
heat-sensitive materials, or through load-bearing walls, create:
an insulating barrier equal to or greater than 10cm around the connector
using mineral-based insulating material (rock wool, ceramic fi bre) with a
nominal density greater than 80kg/m
- If the connector has to pass through non-fl ammable partitions or walls,
create: an insulating barrier equal to or greater than 5cm around the
connector using mineral-based insulating material (rock wool, ceramic fi bre)
with a nominal density greater than 80kg/m
- Check that the connection to the fl ueway is gas/smoke-tight, since the
appliance operates in a vacuum.
- Check that the pipe does not penetrate too far into the fl ueway, thereby
choking the pipe for the passage of smoke and combustion gases.
Ensure that all installation work is carried out to professional
standards.

1.11 USING AN EXTERNAL FLUE

An external fl ue can be used provided it complies with the following
requirements:
- Use only insulated stainless steel pipes (double-lined) fi xed to the outside
wall of the building (Fig. 23).
- There must be an inspection opening at the base of the fl ue to permit
periodic checks and maintenance.
- The fl ue must be fi tted at the top with a chimney stack with down-draught
cowl, also ensuring compliance with the safety distance from the roof ridge
as outlined in the section entitled "GENERAL RULES", under "CHIMNEY
STACK".
Ensure that all installation work is carried out to professional
standards.

1.12 PREVENTION OF DOMESTIC FIRES

The product must be installed and used in compliance with the manufacturer's instructions and European and national standards as well as local
regulations.
When a fl ue pipe passes through a wall or a ceiling, special installation methods must be applied (protection, thermal insulation, distances
from heat-sensitive materials, etc.). See the paragraph "CONNECTION TO THE FLUEWAY".
- It is also recommended that all elements made of combustible or infl ammable material, such as beams, wooden furniture, curtaining, fl ammable liquids, etc.
be kept outside the heat radiation range of the fi replace and at a distance of at least 80 cm from the heating block.
- For other information, see the paragraph "MINIMUM SAFETY DISTANCES" and "CONNECTION TO THE FLUEWAY".
- The fl ue pipe, chimney stack, chimney and fresh air intake must always be free of obstructions, clean and checked periodically, that is, at least twice during the
seasonal period from the lighting of the fi replace and during its use. When the fi replace has not been used for some time it is advisable to carry out the checks
mentioned above. For further information, consult a chimneysweep.
- Only use recommended fuels (See section "FUEL").
