INTRODUCTION

This chapter about the Chimney Flue has been drawn up in cooperation with Assocosma (www.assocosma.org)
and is based on European Standards (EN 15287 - EN 13384 - EN 1856 - EN 1443 - UNI 10683:2012).
It provides instructions for a good and correct execution of the chimney flue but it does not absolutely replace
the current standards which the qualified manufacturer/installer should comply with.
The company declines any responsibility regarding the bad running of the stove if it is due to the use of a no
correctly dimensioned chimney flue which does not respect current regulations.
