Ventilation Requirements - CDA HG3610BL Instructions For Installation, Use And Maintenance Manual

VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS

The appliance must be installed in compliance with applicable local regulations concerning
ventilation and the evacuation of exhaust gases.
Intensive and prolonged use may require extra ventilation, e.g. opening a window, or more
efficient ventilation increasing the mechanical suction power if this is fitted.
CHOOSING SUITABLE SURROUNDINGS
The room where the gas appliance is to be installed must have a natural flow of air so that the gas
can burn (in compliance with applicable local regulations).
The flow of air must come directly from one or more openings made in the outside walls with a free
area of at least 100 cm
The openings should be near the floor and preferably on the side opposite the exhaust for
combustion products and must be made so that they cannot be blocked from either the inside
or the outside.
When these openings cannot be made, the necessary air can come from an adjacent room which
is ventilated as required, as long as it is not a bed room or a danger area (in compliance with
applicable local regulations).
In this case, the kitchen door must allow the passage of the air.
DISCHARGING PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION
Extractor hoods connected directly to the outside must be provided, to allow the products of
combustion of the gas appliance to be discharged (fig. 7).
If this is not possible, an electric fan may be used, attached to the external wall or the window;
the fan should have a capacity to circulate air at an hourly rate of 3-5 times the total volume of the
kitchen (fig. 8).
The fan can only be installed if the room has suitable vents to allow air to enter, as described under
the heading "Choosing suitable surroundings".
