Water Characteristics
The characteristics of the water used to fi ll
the system are very important to prevent the
build-up of mineral salts and the formation of
incrustations along the pipes, in the thermostove
and in the heat exchangers.
Therefore, please get your plumber's advice
concering:
• Hardness of water circulating in the system, to
prevent problems of incrustation and limescale,
especially in the domestic water heat exchanger
(>25° French).
• Installation of a water softener (if water
hardness > 25° French).
• Filling the system with treated water
(demineralised).
If you have very extensive system, with a large
amount of water, or which require frequent
refi lling, it is recommended the installation of
water softening system. It 'should be noted that
the encrustations drastically reduce performance
because of their low thermal conductivity.
Pellet
The pellets are cylinders of compressed wood, produced from sawdust and wood
processing (chips and sawdust), generally produced by sawmills and carpenters.
The binding capacity of the lignin contained in wood, allows to obtain a compact
product without adding additives and foreign chemicals to the wood, is
therefore obtained a natural fuel with high yield.
The use of expired pellets or any other unsuitable material can
damage parts of the thermostove and impair proper operation:
this can lead to the termination of the guarantee, and its producer
responsibility.
For our thermostoves use pellets diameter 6 mm, length 30 mm and a maximum of 6%
moisture. Store the pellets away from heat sources and not in humid environments or with
explosive atmospheres.
