External air intake vent

• The boiler must have the air necessary to ensure smooth combustion operation and good
environmental well-being.
• Make sure that the room where the boiler is installed offers sufficient ventilation and install an air
supply duct from the outside with the recommended minimum section of 100 cm².
• The air intake vent must communicate directly with the installation room of the boiler, positioned
so as to prevent it from being blocked and protected with a permanent non-lockable grid or other
suitable protection provided that it does not reduce the minimum section.
• Air flow can also be obtained from a room adjacent to the installation room, provided that this flow
can be carried out freely through permanent, non-closable openings communicating with the
outside.
• With respect to the installation room, the adjacent room should not be put under vacuum with
respect to the external environment as a result of a reverse draft caused by the presence in this
space of another utility device or suction device. The room adjacent to the permanent openings
must meet the requirements set out in the paragraphs above. The adjacent room cannot be used
as a garage, for storage of combustible material or for activities involving the risk of fire.

Preventing house fires

Installation and use of the boiler must be in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and
with local habitability regulations.
CAUTION: when a fume exhaust pipe passes through a wall or ceiling, particular
installation methods must be used (protection, thermal insulation, distances from heat
sensitive materials, etc.).
The fireplace connecting tube must never pass through a combustible surface.
Do not connect this unit to a chimney flue already being used by another device.
It is also advisable to maintain all combustible elements or flammable material such as beams,
wooden furniture, curtains, flammable liquids, etc. outside the radiation area of the furnace and at
a distance of at least 1 m from the heating block.
In the event that the surrounding space has coverings in combustible or heat-sensitive material, a
protective membrane made of non-combustible insulating material must be interposed. If the
flooring is made of combustible material, a non-combustible protective material that protrudes
laterally and frontally from 15 cm to 30 cm must be provided at the mouth of the furnace.
For further information, refer to local requirements.
