Installation - EdilKamin BASIC Installation, Use And Maintenance Manual

Refer to local regulations in the country of use for anything that is not specifically covered in this manual. In Italy, refer to standards
UNI 10683/2005 and UNI 10412-2, as well as the Ministerial Decree No. 37, ex Law No. 46/90, in addition to any Regional or Local
Health Authority regulations. If installing in a block of apartments, first consult the block administrator.
Verify compatibility with other devices
According to standard UNI 10683/2005, the thermal stove must NOT be installed in the same room as extractors, type A and B gas
appliances and, in any case, devices that diminish the ventilation inside the room.
Check electrical connections (POSITION THE SOCKET IN AN ACCESSIBLE PLACE)
The stove is equipped with a electrical power cable to be connected to a 230V 50 Hz socket, preferably with a magnetothermic switch.
Voltage variations exceeding 10% can damage the thermal stove (unless already installed, an appropriate differential switch must be
fitted). The electrical system must comply with law; particularly verify the efficiency of the earthing system. The power line must have
suitable cross-section for the thermal stove's power.
Lack of efficiency of the "ground" circuit causes malfunction for which Edilkamin cannot be held responsible.
Positioning
The thermal stove must be level for it to function correctly. Verify the bearing capacity of the floor.
Fire prevention safety distances
The thermal stove must be installed in compliance with the following safety conditions:
- medium flammability items must be kept at a minimum distance of 20 cm from the sides and
back of the thermal stove
- highly flammable items must be kept at a minimum distance of 80 cm if placed in front of the
thermal stove
- if the thermal stove is installed on flammable flooring, a sheet of heat insulating material must
be placed on the floor. This must extend at least 20 cm from the sides and 40 cm from the front.
Flammable objects must not be placed above the thermal stove or at a distance that is any less
than the stipulated safety distances. If connected to wooden walls or other flammable materials,
the smoke exhaust pipe must be appropriately insulated with ceramic fibre or other similar
material.
Air inlet: to be mandatorily implemented.
The room where the thermal stove is placed must have an air inlet with a cross-section of at least 80 cm² so as to guarantee sufficient
air supply to the stove for combustion. Alternatively, the stove air may be taken directly from outside through a 5 cm steel extension
of thepipe. In this case, there may be condensation problems and it is necessary to protect the air intake with a grille, which must
have a free section of at least 12 cm². The pipe must be less than 1 metre long and have no bends. It must end with a section
at 90° facing downwards or be fitted with a wind guard.
Smoke outlet
The discharge system must only be used for the thermal stove (the smoke cannot be discharged into a chimney flue used by other
devices). The smoke is discharged through the 8 cm diameter outlet at the back of the thermal stove. A T-junction must be set up with
a condensation collection stopper at the beginning of the vertical section. The thermal stove smoke discharge must be connected with
outside by means of steel or black pipes EN 1856 certified. The pipe line must be hermetically sealed. The pipes must be sealed and
insulated using materials that are resistant to high temperatures (high temperature silicone or mastic). The only horizontal section allo-
wed may be up to 2 m long. The horizontal section must have a minimum inclination of 3% and a maximum of two 90° bends. If the
outlet is not fitted into a chimney flue, a vertical section of at least 1.5 m will be required, complete with a wind guard. The vertical
duct can be internal or external. If the smoke channel is outside, it must be insulated.
If the smoke channel is fitted inside a chimney flue, the latter must be suitable for solid fuel. If it is wider than 150 mm in diameter,
a pipe must be entered and the outlet sealed to the masonry. All sections of the smoke duct must be accessible for inspection.
