6�2 SET-UPS FOR THE SMOKE
EVACUATION SYSTEM
Be careful when building the smoke evacuation system
and observe the regulations in force in the country where
the appliance is installed�
The Manufacturer will not be held liable for incorrectly
sized and non-regulation smoke evacuation systems�
6�2�1 Smoke ducts and fittings
The term smoke duct indicates all ducts that connect the
combustion equipment to the chimney.
The following requirements need to be applied:
• observe product standard EN 1856-2;
• the horizontal sections must have a minimum slope of
3% upwards;
• the length of the horizontal section must be as minimum
as possible, and its projection on the horizontal plane
must not exceed 2 metres;
• changes in direction must not have an angle of more
than 90° (45° bends are recommended);
• the number of direction changes, including the one
necessary for insertion into the chimney, must not
exceed 3;
• the cross section must have a constant diameter, the
same from where it exits the firebox up to the fitting
into the chimney;
• it is forbidden to use flexible metal and fibre cement
pipes;
• smoke ducts must not cross rooms where the installation
of combustion equipment is prohibited.
In any case, the smoke ducts must be sealed against
combustion products and condensation, as well as
insulated if they lead outside of the installation room.
Installing manual draught adjustment devices is not
allowed.
6�2�2 Chimney
The chimney is a particularly important element for
correct stove operation.
The chimney must be sized so as to guarantee the draught
declared by the Manufacturer�
Do not connect the stove to a collective chimney�
The chimney must be built applying the following
regulations:
• it must observe product standard EN 1856-1;
• it must be made of materials that are suitable to
guarantee resistance against normal mechanical,
chemical and thermal stress and be correctly thermally
insulated to limit the formation of condensation;
• it must be mainly vertical and not feature any
bottlenecks along its entire length;
• it must be correctly spaced with an air gap and insulated
from flammable materials;
• there must be a maximum of 2 changes in direction and
angles must not exceed 45°;
• the chimney inside the home, however, must be
insulated and can be inserted into a skylight shaft, as
long as it respects standards regarding placing inside a
tube;
• the smoke conduit must be connected to the chimney
using a "T" fitting with an inspection collection chamber
for combustion residue and especially for collecting
condensation.
It is necessary to check the safety distances that need to
be observed when there are flammable materials and the
type of insulating material that needs to be used is on the
chimney data plate�
Use watertight pipes with silicone seals�
It is forbidden to use the discharge mounted directly on
the wall or directed towards indoor spaces and any other
type of discharge that is not set forth by the regulation
in force in the country of installation (Note: in Italy only
roof-discharge is allowed)�
6�2�3 Chimney pot
The chimney pot, i.e. the top end of the chimney, must
fulfil the following characteristics:
• the cross-section of the smoke outlet must be at least
twice the internal cross-section of the chimney;
• it must stop water or snow from getting in;
• make sure the smoke is taken away even when there is
wind (wind resistant chimney pot);
• the outlet height must be outside of the reflux zone
(refer to national and local regulations to calculate the
reflux zone);
• it must always be built at a distance from antennas or
dishes, it must never be used as support.
6�3 INSTALLATION
For appliance installation and use it is necessary to
observe all of the local, national and European laws and
regulations�
Appliance installation and the preparation of the building
work must observe the regulation in force in the country
of installation (ITALY = UNI 10683)�
The installation activities must be carried out by a
technician that is qualified and/or authorised by the
Manufacturer� The staff in charge of installation must
issue a declaration of conformity of the system to the
buyer, whereby they take full responsibility for the final
installation and good operation of the installed product�
There shall be no liability on the part of Jotul if these
precautions are not observed�
6�3�1 Requirements for the installation premises
The appliance installation room must be sufficiently
ventilated. To fulfil this requisite it is necessary to equip
the room with an air intake connected to the outdoors.
The installation room must have an air intake with a free
cross-section of at least 80 cm
For installation in the presence of other combustion
appliances or VMC system it is necessary to check the
appliance for correct operation�
The appliance must be placed inside living quarters. It
must never be installed outdoors. The volume of the room
where it is installed must be suitable for the power of the
appliance and, in any case, greater than 15 m
When extraction fans (example: extraction hoods) are
used in the same room or space as the appliance, this can
