Installation Enviroment; Load-Bearing Capacity Of The Fl Oor; Heating Capacity - Superior MONIA Instructions For Installation, Use And Maintenance Manual

1.5 INSTALLATION ENVIROMENT

The appliance should be installed in a location which allows safe and convenient use as well as easy maintenance. If the product being installed requires
an electrical socket, the room must also be provided with an earthed power supply in accordance with current regulations. The room where the appliance
is to be installed must comply with the following requirements.
It can not be used as a garage, store for combustible material or for activities with a risk of fi re.
It can not be in a vacuum in relation to the outside environment due to the effect of contrary draught caused by the presence in the room
where the fi replace is installed of another appliance or an extractor device.
Do not use two stoves, a fi replace and a stove, a fi replace and a wood-fi red cooking range, etc. in the same environment, since the draught
of one could affect the draught of the other.
- Devices suitable for cooking food with relative hoods without an extractor fan may only be used in kitchens.
- Gas appliances of type C are allowed (refer to current legislation and regulations in the place of installation)
Gas appliances of type B are not allowed (refer to current legislation and regulations in the place of installation).
The fi replace must not be used simultaneously with collective type ventilation ducts with or without extractor fan, other devices or other
appliances such as: forced ventilation systems or other heating systems using ventilation to change the air. Such systems could cause a
vacuum in the environment of installation even if installed in adjoining or communicating rooms.
The fi replace must not be used: in stairwells except in buildings with no more than two apartments; in corridors for common use; in
bedrooms; in bathrooms or shower-rooms.
1.6 LOAD-BEARING CAPACITY OF THE FLOOR
Check the load-bearing capacity of the fl oor referring to the weight of the product given in the paragraph "TECHNICAL DATA".
If the fl oor has an unsuitable load-bearing capacity, take adequate countermeasures.

1.7 HEATING CAPACITY

Check the heating capacity of the appliance by comparing the rated power given in the paragraph "TECHNICAL DATA" with the power required by the
environment to be heated.
The energy requirement may be calculated approximately by multiplying the square metres of area by the height of the ceiling; the result is then multiplied
by a coeffi cient, which depends on the degree of insulation of the building, that is, on internal and external factors of the dwelling:
a) Internal factors: type of window and door frames, thickness of the insulation and walls, type of building materials, presence of stairwells, walls with
extensive glazing, high ceilings, position of the rooms to be heated in relation to other adjacent heated or unheated rooms, ...
b) External factors: geographical position, average outdoor temperature, exposure, wind speed, latitude, altitude, ...
Example of approximate calculation of the energy requirement to heat a fi xed volume to 18/20° C:
The coeffi cient that is normally used is determined according to the real conditions as they occur case by case.
From 0.04 to 0.05 kW per cubic metre in a well insulated environment
From 0.05 to 0.06 kW per cubic metre in a poorly insulated environment
2
3 rooms measuring 20m X (H ceiling) 2.7m = 162 m
In an environment with a good degree of insulation, an average value (coeffi cient) of 0.045 kW may be taken
162 (volume) X 0.045 (kW) = 7.3 kW necessary (6300 kcal/h)
Conversion 1kW = 860 kcal/h
Consult a heating technician or engineer for a correct check and calculation of the requirement of the environments to be heated
(see "REFERENCE STANDARDS").
