2-INSTALLATION
SIZING
The draught of a flue depends on its height. Check the draught with the values indicated in the technical characteristics. The minimum
height of the chimney is 3.5 metres.
The interior cross-section of the flue can be round (best), square or rectangular (the ratio between the internal sides must be ≤1.5) with
the sides joined with a minimum radius of 20 mm. The dimension of the cross-section must be a minimum Ø150mm.
The cross-sections/lengths of the chimneys shown in the technical data tables are indications for correct installation. Any alternative
configurations must be correctly sized in accordance with the general method of calculation of UNI EN13384-1 or other proven efficiency
methods.
