extraction system that expels any combustion
fumes.
The room must also allow proper air circulation,
as air is needed for combustion to occur normally.
The flow of air must not be less than 2 m³/h per
kW of installed power.
The air circulation system may take air directly
from the outside by means of a pipe with an inner
cross section of at least 100 cm²; the opening must
not be susceptible to blockages.
The system can also provide the air needed for
combustion indirectly, i.e. from adjacent rooms
fitted with air circulation tubes as described above.
However, these rooms must not be communal
Fish

in rooms or storage areas that are below ground
level (cellars, etc.). It is advisable to keep only the
