Pellet; Water Characteristics - Kalor Cloe 17B User Manual

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
Hydro Insert 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
Hydro Insert and impair proper operation: this can lead to the termination of the
guarantee, and its producer responsibility.
For our products use pellets diameter 6 mm, length 30 mm and a maximum
of 6% and A1 certifi ed according to the UNI EN ISO 17225-2 standard. Keep
the pellets away from heat sources and not in humid environments or with explosive atmosphere.
