Page 8 Clean Air Act requirements” The Compact 35 has been recommended as suitable for use in smoke control areas when burning wood pellets in accordance with class A1-A2 specified in the standard EN14961-2.
Page 9: 2-Installation Instructions
2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS The instructions in this chapter refer explicitly to the Italian installation regulation UNI 10683. In any case, always observe the domestic regulations in force. PELLETS Wood pellets are manufactured by hot-extruding compressed sawdust which is produced during the working of natural dried wood. The compactness of the material is guaranteed by the lignin contained in the wood itself and allows pellets to be produced without glue or binders.
Page 10 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS PRECAUTIONS REGARDING INSTALLATION IMPORTANT! Product installation and assembly must be carried out by qualified personnel. The product must be installed in a suitable place that allows easy access for it to be opened regularly and for routine maintenance to be performed.
Page 11 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS POSITIONING AND RESTRICTIONS In the case of simultaneous installation with other heating appliances, provide appropriate air inlets for each one (according to the instructions of each product). Installation of the product is not permitted: • in rooms where there are liquid fuel appliances with continuous or intermittent operation that draw the combustion air from the room they are installed in;...
Page 12 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOREWORD This chapter on the Smoke Flue has been produced in reference to the prescriptions of European regulations (EN13384 - EN1443 - EN1856 - EN1457). The chapter provides indications for installing an efficient and correct smoke flue but is under no circumstances to substitute the regulations in force, which the qualified technician must be in possession of.
Page 13 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS Flues serving a pellet/wood fuelled appliance must meet the following requirements: • made of materials that are sufficiently resistant to mechanical stress, heat, the action of the products of combustion and their vapours. • made of materials that are impermeable to fumes, condensation, be thermally insulated and resistant to normal mechanical stress over time •...

Page 15 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS DIMENSIONING The drop in pressure (draft) of a flue depends on its height. Check the drop in pressure with the values indicated in the technical characteristics. The minimum height of the chimney is 3.5 meters. The interior cross-section of the flue can be circular (best variation), square or rectangular (the ratio between the interior sides must be ≤1.5) with the sides joined with a minimum radius of 20 mm.
Page 16 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS MAINTENANCE The flue must be kept clean, since the deposit of soot or unburned oils reduces the cross-section reducing the draft and thus compromising the efficient functioning of the heater and, if large build-ups accumulate, can catch fire. The flue and chimney must be cleaned and checked by a qualified chimney sweep at least once a year.
Page 17 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CONNECTION TO FLUE The connection between the flue and the appliance must be via a smoke duct that conforms with EN 1856-2. The connecting section must extend no more than 4 m horizontally, with a maximum incline of 3% and containing a maximum of 3 90% bends (accessible for inspection - do not count the T joint at the appliance outlet).
Page 18 2-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS EXAMPLES OF CORRECT INSTALLATION 1. Installation of Ø150mm flue with hole for the passage of the tube increased by: minimum 100 mm around the tube if next to non flammable parts such as cement, brick, etc.; or minimum 300 mm around the tube (or as prescribed by data tags) if next to flammable parts such as wood etc.

Page 29: Initial Start-Up
7 - INITIAL START-UP BEFORE START-UP GENERAL PRECAUTIONS Remove all components that could burn from the brazier (manual, various adhesive labels and any polystyrene). Check that the brazier is positioned correctly and rests properly on the base. After a long period of inactivity, remove any pellets left in the hopper (using a vacuum cleaner with a long pipe ), as they could have absorbed moisture, thereby altering their original characteristics and no longer being suitable for combustion.
Page 30 7 - INITIAL START-UP The boiler will be subject to expansion and contraction during the start-up and cooling phases, therefore slight creaking noises may be heard. This is absolutely normal as the structure is made of laminated steel and must not be considered a defect. It is extremely important to make sure the boiler is not immediately overheated and the temperature is increased gradually, initially using low power.
Page 31 7 - INITIAL START-UP LOADING THE PELLETS Pellets loading can be either manual or automatic. When empty the hopper can contain 150 litres i.e. roughly 100 kg of pellets. Manual Loading: • Open the upper door of the boiler directly and pour in the pellets. Automatic Loading (to be combined with the remote 100/200 or 400 kg hopper - optional - see accessories): •...
